The Los Angeles film industry has returned to forced masking indoors after county officials reported a higher number of coronavirus cases resulting in hospitalizations.
The industry’s agreement with its unions maintains that if eight or more people per 100,000 L.A. County residents are hospitalized for COVID, film and TV productions must return to mask wearing.The film industry agreement was first set in place in May and is set to expire on July 15.
“This industry has worked closely with their labor partners to institute Covid safety measures that create safety for all workers while being able to continue the important work,” Ferrer said in praise of the industry. “We do applaud them along with many other businesses that are taking advantage of the many tools that are available to keep workers safe.”Hollywood had already moved to
vaccines and booster shots in an agreement with unions in February. All employees of the film and TV industry were told that they must take the jab as a condition for employment.that nearby Alameda County’s COVID rates were nearly the same as surrounding counties despite its reinstitution of masks this month and the corresponding lack of them elsewhere. The data seems to cast serious doubt on the effectiveness of mask wearing as a preventative measure.
