WHAT IS THE CORONA VIRUS?

COVID-19 (coronavirus) is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person.

On March 15, the CDC said individuals and organizations should reschedule events with 50 or more people for the next eight weeks. Both Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Eric Garcetti have released statements and new recommendations or requirements. Governor Newsom called for home isolation for all people 65 and older and those with chronic health conditions. Mayor Garcetti announced an emergency action to close bars, nightclubs, restaurants (with the exception of takeout and delivery), entertainment venues, and gyms and fitness centers. Mayor Garcetti’s emergency action took effect at midnight on Monday, March 16.

For the latest information, please visit the CDC website or Los Angeles Department of Public Health website or contact your health care provider.
