It’s been more than four months since Los Angeles County’s Covid State of Emergency officially ended, and a lot has changed. People have stopped wearing masks, public places are bustling again and even the most cautious public officials have relaxed their rhetoric. Most importantly, unlike the previous three years, there was no significant summer spike in cases. Fall, however, may be a slightly different story.
Anecdotally, we’re hearing of more infections over the past few weeks. Indeed, the L.A. County Public Health website lists outbreaks in the production of Fox’s The Masked Singer and at Warner Bros.’ Ivy Station offices in Culver City. It’s unclear how large these outbreaks were or when exactly they happened because the Public Health tracker no longer offers that information.
In an email sent out this past weekend, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health reported “small increases in COVID-19 indicators over the past four weeks indicating increased transmission,” although the statement also stressed that “overall metrics remain at a low level of concern.”
Very true. The trend is, however, steadily upward for the first time in months, with average daily cases in Los Angeles rising 64% between July 19 and August 9. Again, the numbers are low, rising from 202 average daily cases in July to 333 last week. That’s a fraction of what was seen over most of 2020, 2021 and 2022, but higher than the 195 daily cases reported when the state of emergency was lifted in May.
One factor that could help prevent the spread is the fact that with both SAG and the WGA on strike, film and TV production in Los Angeles is largely at a standstill. That means thousands fewer maskless people are in close proximity every day. (The
