LA to require proof of Covid vaccination to enter businesses
Los Angeles became the largest city in the nation to require proof of Covid-19 vaccination to enter certain indoor businesses, large events and city buildings. The Los Angeles City Council voted 11-2 Wednesday in favor of adding the rule to its Municipal Code after postponing the vote last week due to questions about enforcement, fines and the possibility of confusion.
The ordinance — which goes into effect Nov. 6 with enforcement expected to begin Nov. 29 — requires patrons entering restaurants and bars, gyms, movie theaters, nail salons and other businesses show proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test conducted within 72 hours of entering the facility.
Operators of large outdoor events will also be required to cross-check proof of vaccination against an individual’s ID card before allowing them to enter the event.
LA County Public Health officials also recommended restaurants reserve indoor service and seating for those patrons who have been vaccinated and serve those who could not prove they have been vaccinated outdoors.
