Pleas for Vaccinations Continue As Vegas Health Leaders Urge Mask Use

Representatives from the Las Vegas tourism and gaming industry on Friday again called on more people to get a COVID-19 vaccine. That’s after area health officials issued a recommendation earlier in the day. The call asks for all individuals in the region to wear face masks in “crowded indoor public places,” even if they have been vaccinated. The Statue of Liberty replica at the New York-New York Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip gets its own facemask in July 2020. A year later, area health officials are encouraging people to put masks back on in public gathering areas as the region has become a hot spot for the COVID-19 Delta variant.

Mask Mandate Takes Effect Midnight Amid Spike In Coronavirus Cases

Mask Mandate Takes Effect Midnight Amid Spike In Coronavirus Cases The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (Public Health) issued steps to adhere to the new county-wide coronavirus health order that requires both vaccinated and unvaccinated residents to wear masks beginning Saturday.  Just a month ago, Santa Clarita and the rest of L.A. County celebrated a long-awaited reopening by lifting all business and public space restrictions, marking the satisfactory progress made in the fight against COVID-19.  As of July 17, the coronavirus has surged in cases with further threat of the Delta variant, causing L.A. County to defend itself through a reinstatement of the mask mandate for both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals.
