The idea of a new indoor mask mandate, which could come in days, sparks a growing debate, with some L.A. communities saying they won't enforce it.
Many who become infected are not falling seriously ill. While hospitalizations are rising, patients are generally less sick, and intensive care units are less crowded than in previous surges.Supervisor Kathryn Barger said Tuesday she’s adamantly opposed to a new mask order “because I truly do believe it’s going to have the opposite effect.
“Local businesses I know have been telling my office that they’re concerned about having to enforce this mask mandate when such a large portion of the population is against it,” Hahn said. “They just don’t feel like that’s why they went into small business was to, sort of, get in fights with their customers.”
Maria Salinas, president and chief executive of the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce, and Jessica Lall, president and CEO of the Central City Assn., a downtown business group, also recently sent a letter to Ferrer expressing their concerns. Requiring masks, they wrote, “puts employees in the increasingly challenging position of enforcing a mandate that many customers no longer wish to — or are unwilling to — comply with.”
