Los Angeles leaders are poised to enact one of the nation’s strictest vaccine mandates — a sweeping measure that would require the shots for everyone entering a bar, restaurant, nail salon or gym.

Business trade groups have said the city mandate will sow confusion because Los Angeles County’s own vaccine rules — which apply both in LA and in surrounding communities — are less sweeping. The ordinance would require people to be fully vaccinated to enter indoor public spaces including shopping malls, restaurants, bars, gyms, sports arenas, museums, spas, nail salons, indoor city facilities and other locations. Current eligibility includes people age 12 and up.
During a recent City Hall meeting, councilman and mayoral candidate Joe Buscaino challenged the measure as being “clear as mud” regarding enforcement. The county on Tuesday reported 35 new deaths and 964 new cases of COVID-19. Health officials said the county has reported 14 deaths a day, on average, even though deaths and hospitalization figures have plunged by some 50% since late August.
