Employers will be required to provide the masks, and employees will be required to wear them, according to the order.amid a staggering increase in COVID-19 infections as the highly-contagious omicron variant continues to spread rapidly.
Under the new order issued Wednesday, employers must start providing employees who work indoors next to others"with well-fitting medical grade masks, surgical masks, or higher-level respirators, such as N95 or KN95 masks." "These upgraded masks are better at blocking virus particles from going through the mask," the county order states.by researchers at Yale University, Stanford University and others found that villages in Bangladesh where surgical masks were worn had 11% fewer cases of COVID than in villages where no masks were worn. In villages that wore cloth masks, infections were reduced by only 5%.
kathrynbarger : can I please come by your office and pick up a 30 day supply of N95 masks? I want to be a model employee for Los Angeles County. 😃
Yeah how about no. STOPTHEHYSTERIA takeoffthemask donotcomply
La County- The laughing stock of the United States.
Then the county should be providing them.
Business as usual 😆
Wow
😂😂😂😂
Lol 😂
Someone has money in the medical grade masks because before any mask was good. Wake up people.

Is this like how companies are required to have customers wear masks even though no one does?
Thank you.
love how we're just forcing people to buy more expensive gear as a solution that will almost certainly make the original problem worse
More b.s. mask mandates, and it is not like this in all other states!
Contact my job then have them purchase and supply them
Yeah right…. As soon as the workers get to their desk, they remove the masks. No one is enforcing this. So why act like this is a thing?
Are y’all gonna pay for it?
Ma$k$!
Just lockdown all of the selfish unvaccinated people, and let us live our lives!
Slaves to The Man. Lose your freedom. China virus rampant. Killing our population and Biden does nothing to penalize those evil bastards.
Whatta llad of bullshiiit
Oh yeah, like that’s going to help. People are still getting sick with masks.
So many fake “medical grade” masks out there!!🤣
At my job at least 5 people got Covid in the last 4 weeks. All fully vaccinated. And only two people are still fine. Both unvaccinated.
But they don’t do $hit with all those seats fill up!!!
Interesting I just bought some a few weeks ago. Damn shame.
Newsom must have stock in the company
Isn't Los Angeles a Sanctuary City? Or does that not apply to US Citizens? I am vaccinated and seeking sanctuary from wearing masks...
Are they going to send me home if I forget my mask? Darn.
Sorry I will wear my rainbow masks I’m not going to wear a surgical mask. The health department is going overreaching . Ralph’s will not force on me thank god
Hahahahahahaha they keep changing the answers and we stopped asking questions. Moving the fuck on.
Doesn't matter what you wear. You can catch covid in different scenarios.
Polypropylene fiber is literally toxic unless used in moderation. The moisture from your breath will release the fibers back into your lungs. 10 years from now everyone will have cancer.
So, the masks never worked?
They should lock those unvaccinated the will be the solution
Yall really not going to be able to Breathe
Should have been mandated since the start or better yet closed up travel so no one in us would have gotten it.
