Los Angeles County will ban most social gatherings starting Monday for at least three weeks under new restrictions local health officials unveiled, citing a continued surge in COVID-19 infections

The public health order specifically exempts religious services and protests under constitutionally protected rights in an apparent nod to Wednesday’s U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down a New York state order that had restricted the size of religious gatherings.

State and local authorities have instituted, or re-imposed, a wide range of limitations on social and economic activity in hopes of blunting a wave of coronavirus infections raging out of control across the country following a late-summer lull. Under the new L.A. County order, which runs through Dec. 20, residents are advised - but not required - to stay home as much as possible and to always wear face coverings when outside their homes and around others.

Beaches, trails and parks remain open, too, so long as individuals keep their distance from others outside their households and wear a mask. The same applies to golf courses, tennis courts, skate parks and other outdoor recreational venues.
