Los Angeles Mayor Garcetti pushed back any suggestion that he endangered anyone by briefly slipping off his mask at the 49ers-Rams game for that now infamous photo with Magic Johnson and San Francisco Mayor London Breed, while, by his account, holding his breath.
With the 15,664 new cases reported Wednesday in L.A. County and 102 deaths, Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer says transmission is just too high in the county to relax the mask mandate at this point for the Super Bowl. But that hasn't stopped the public from questioning the rule.
When asked why the SoFi mask requirement made sense, when millions of people have attended NFL games this year, including in places without strict mask rules, Ferrer didn't answer directly. She suggested risk for transmission remained high in large venues, and emphasized that determining where a person became infected can often be difficult, if not impossible.The same L.A.
The NFL says they've designed their own outer perimeter for entry to make sure screenings are safe, efficient and actually happen, as some fans have said the checks at SoFi and enforcement of the mask mandate have been minimal. The NFL will provide KN95 masks to every fan in attendance. On Tuesday, L.A. County Supervisor Kathryn Barger said individuals should be allowed to make their own decision about whether to mask up at the stadium.
"I'm not sure what motivated Supervisor Barger to make her public statement yesterday. As chairwoman of the board and the person who actually represents SoFi Stadium, I stand by the director of our department of public health and literally ever other public health official across the country, who acknowledges that mask wearing is an easy form of protection," said L.A. County Supervisor Holly Mitchell.
