Los Angeles County may soon reimpose indoor mask mandates as COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations continue to rise in the area.

During a press conference Thursday, LA County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said the largest county in the United States had reached "medium" COVID-19 transmission levels and will require face coverings if it reaches the "high" category."

BA.5 is still the dominant variant from what I have seen. Everyone in my immediate family and quite a few friends have now had one form or other of Covid, the only two who have been spared so far are me and the dragon.
