School Reopening

Reopening schools

The County reached an important milestone Monday that enables schools to open on-site learning for grades TK through 6. The key factor is the County's sustained adjusted case rate of under 25 new cases per 100,000 people for five consecutive days, which meets the State's requirements for reopening, provided schools are in full compliance with State and County directives. The criteria for reopening grades 7 through 12 will be met when the County's case rate drops below seven per 100,000 people. For more information, go to: publichealth.lacounty.gov.

Public Health Ensures No Dose Goes to Waste

Night PODs

The Department of Public Health works around the clock to ensure the ongoing supply and delivery of vaccines. Its latest efforts to safeguard against any wasted doses include collecting those that are unused at the end of the day and sending them to a 'midnight pod' where they are put into the arms of those who need it the most.

Safety Compliance Certification Program for Businesses

Safety compliance

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.

Incident Report

Today’s Incident Report is in the process of being finalized and will be posted on the Incident Report section of the County’s COVID-19 site when complete. Please note, that the reports are posted by date and can be accessed at https://covid19.lacounty.gov/incident-updates/.
