Covid-19 Update #11 with Dr. Sandra R. Hernandez, CEO of the California Health Foundation
**Update: Los Angeles County has announced that effective July 17, 2021 everyone will need to wear masks indoors. Vaccines have shown to be incredibly effective, but with only half of California and the United States fully vaccinated, we need to reassess how to continue to protect the unvaccinated. The Delta Variant is becoming more transmissible, so we urge our unvaccinated family members, friends and neighbors to wear masks around others and practice physical distancing at indoor and large outdoor events. Wearing a mask can protect you and help reduce the spread and mutation of Covid-19.

Show Notes
Vaccines have shown to be incredibly effective, and continue to be available for anyone 12 years of age and older. With only half of California and the United States fully vaccinated, we need to continue to reassess how to reach the unvaccinated. Most recently, there have been efforts to increase outreach and to go door-to-door to provide vaccines. Our media efforts will also have to target specific populations with effective messages.
We continue to encourage you to get vaccinated, and if you are not vaccinated, we ask you to continue to mask up with N95 masks around others in large crowds and indoors events.
