'This is a reasonable path forward that can position us to be better able to break the cycle of surges,' said Dr. Barbara Ferrer, L.A. County Department of Public Health director in making the announcement on Wednesday.
Ferrer referred to both the drinking establishments and mega events as “select high risk settings” at which residents — particularly those who are unvaccinated — remain vulnerable to transmission. Attendees at indoor events are already required to show vaccine verification or proof of a negative test result.
Ferrer said her department will prepare tool kits that businesses can use to help confirm vaccinations as well as offering education and support. While not required, Ferrer went on to say that vaccination verification is recommended “at indoor portions of restaurants.”
