Print Los Angeles County’s jump in coronavirus continued Saturday as new rules requiring masks in public indoor setting was set to take effect, a restriction officials hope will slow the spread of the virus among the unvaccinated. L.A. is by far the biggest jurisdiction in the nation to require masks again. But because COVID-19 cases are rising across the nation due to the highly infectious Delta variant, officials elsewhere will be watching to see if the effort works. People who have received vaccinations are protected from the Delta variant. But officials are asking them to wear masks indoors as a way of also forcing unvaccinated people who are at risk to do the same. About 52% of L.A. County residents are fully vaccinated, and roughly 60% have gotten at least one shot. But given the region’s enormous population, that still leaves millions vulnerable.
