Dear LA County Sector Partners,
INVITE ONLY
Coronavirus Update:
Telebriefing for Schools K-12
Public Health Officials Provide Update on Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Driven by the more aggressive Delta variant, low vaccination rates in certain communities, and more intermingling of unmasked individuals, hospitalizations in L.A. County doubled in just two weeks. COVID-related hospitalizations in L.A. County surpassed 700 this past weekend for the first time since March 25 (729 hospitalized on that day), and the vast majority of hospitalized patients are unvaccinated. Public Health will conduct a telebriefing to update you on the latest COVID-19 response, discuss current safety requirements for teachers, staff and children, and we will also answer your questions and listen to your feedback.

Time: 4:00 – 5:00 p.m. (PDT)
