The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health reports 144 WeHo residents are infected with COVID-19 as of today, an increase of two from yesterday’s 142. 

The Health Department said there have been 883 new confirmed COVID-19 infections countywide, bringing the total to 30,296. There have been 51 new deaths, bringing that total to 1,468. Four  West Hollywood residents have died thus far.

Thirty-nine people who died were over the age of 65 and eight were between the ages of 41 and 65 years old and two were between the ages of 18 and 40. Forty-three people had underlying health conditions including 36 people over the age of 65, six people between the ages of 41 to 65.

The Health Department’s COVID-19 database continues to report that only 704 West Hollywood residents have been tested for the virus, a  figure that has not been updated for several weeks. 

The number of confirmed infections in Beverly Hills as of today is 116, an increase of one from yesterday’s count of 115. The number of infections in Culver City grew by three to 93. The Hollywood neighborhood had six new confirmed infections, bringing its total to 212. The number of confirmed infections in the Melrose neighborhood increased by five to a total of 405.

The Health Department has begun to implement his five-stage “roadmap to recovery” that today allows the opening (for curbside pickup only) of bookstores, florists, music stores, toy stores, apparel retailers, sporting goods stores, and car dealerships. Car dealerships, golf courses and trails will also open with appropriate safeguards in place. Runyon Canyon, however, will remain closed.

Physical distancing and infection control protocols must be adhered to and cloth facing coverings must be worn. Employers are required to provide a cloth face covering for all employees to wear while performing duties that involve contact with others and limit the number of people entering businesses so that a physical distance of at least six feet can be maintained at all times by employees and customers.

Employers must allow for frequent handwashing or have sanitizer available when hand washing isn’t possible and may also need to stagger employee shifts to ensure that they can work at a safe distance from one another while on site. The public will be required to follow the measures put in place by the businesses and wear a cloth face covering to enter the establishments or secure purchases curbside. Later next week additional restrictions may be lifted to include other retailers, manufacturers, and recreational facilities.

The best protection against COVID-19 is to wash your hands frequently, avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands, self-isolate if you are sick, practice physical distancing (especially by staying at home) and wear a clean face covering when in contact with others from outside your household.

Essential businesses must provide a cloth face covering for all employees to wear while performing duties that involve contact with other employees and or the public and to post physical distancing plans. The public is required to wear a face covering to enter essential businesses as well. Beaches, trails and trailheads and non-essential businesses remain closed, and all public and private gatherings of any number of people occurring outside a single household or living unit remain prohibited.
