The County of Los Angeles is regularly updating resources on COVID-19 and offers today's update in an effort to keep you and yours informed. Please share the following up-to-date information:
A Survivor's Story
 Shelby is 29-years-old and COVID-19 survivor. She contracted the virus in April, and after suffering from headaches, vomiting, and dizziness, Shelby was hospitalized at Cedars Sinai in May. She now needs to wear a heart monitor. Listen to her story by clicking the image above.
Critical Care Delivery
 Workforce Development Aging and Community Services has been delivering food boxes to qualifying seniors since the Covid-19 pandemic began. As a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic and the California Safer at Home initiative, our aging population has an increased need for timely delivery services. WDACS launched a temporary delivery program called Critical Delivery Services (CDS) to deliver food and other vital items to individuals who are unable to leave their homes due to COVID-19.

Gathering Safely
 |
|
If you choose to gather in celebration or demonstration, the County would like to remind you to do so safely while following LA County Public Health's guidance for small private gatherings which aligns with the current Health Officer Order.
Public Health cautions residents that attending gatherings, even small ones, are extremely risky and can easily result in increased transmission of the virus.
It only takes one to spread to everyone you live with. Avoid gathering with others you don't live with, to protect everyone you DO live with.

COVID-19 Safety Compliance Certification Program
 LA County is helping train businesses on the implementation of COVID-19 safety protocols through a no-cost online training course called the COVID-19 Safety Compliance Certification Program (CSCCP). Once completed, business owners receive a certificate, and window seal to display on their storefront, which can reassure employees and customers alike that the business is following COVID-19 infection control and physical distancing requirements.
If you have not yet completed the CSCCP course or want to learn more about it, visit publichealth.lacounty.gov/eh/covid19cert.htm. Help support your employees, customers, and community while on the Road to Recovery.
Great Plates
 Great Plates Delivered has been extended through December 8th. LA County's meal assistance program offers eligible seniors with three (3) home-delivered meals a day. Seniors over 65, seniors 60-64 years of age who have been diagnosed or exposed to COVID-19 or those at high-risk for COVID-19 may qualify. When you help a senior connect to Great Plates Delivered, you're also helping your local restaurant, hospitality and transportation community get back to work.
