LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles County has officially exited the high coronavirus community level as calculated by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, meaning it is on track to lift its indoor mask order Friday.
L.A. County health officials have been waiting for the CDC’s weekly update of COVID-19 levels by county — issued Thursdays — before acting.
Once the county exited the high level, officials said earlier this week that L.A. County health officer, Dr. Muntu Davis, would issue a new health order — effective Friday — that will lift the indoor mask order in places such as bars, stores, offices, restaurants, gyms and movie theaters.
