A number of Oakland City Councilmembers are in favor of the policy that would require people to mask indoors in some facilities -one that will be taken up next week.
"To call on Libby Schaaf to bring back the mask requirement in Oakland public buildings," said Raia Small of Senior and Disability Action.
The group represents seniors and those with disabilities. They want the previous indoor mask mandate immediately reinstated. They sang out their thoughts about the current health situation with some holiday notes.Bay Area residents consider wearing face masks again as COVID cases surge A number of Oakland City Councilmembers are in favor of the policy, one that would require people to mask indoors in some facilities, and one that will be taken up next week. Currently, the weekly hospital admission rate is rising and now nearly 11% in Alameda County.
"We think there should be a citywide policy for all city owned buildings, city run buildings," said Oakland City Councilmember Dan Kalb."If I don't want to get COVID and there is this much COVID around, that to me says in crowded indoor spaces, I should wear a mask," said Dr. Wachter., we asked viewers if you'd be in favor of an indoor mask mandate. Dozens of people didn't have a problem with it and are for the idea, but some are against it.
"We have to react to the reality of the situation and not the reality of what we'd like it to be, we have to react to the reality of what it actually is," said Councilmember Kalb."The only mask I wear is a KN95 which is very comfortable and works better to filter out any kind of particles, whether it's the flu virus or COVID virus. The surgical masks work better than nothing, not that well. The cloth masks are nearly worthless," said Dr. Wachter.
