Now, roughly 56% of Californians live in a county that either recommends or requires indoor masking for all individuals, including those vaccinated for COVID-19.

If infections continue to climb, that tally seems likely to grow in the days & weeks ahead.

Health officials have characterized the renewed calls for indoor masking as an effective but unobtrusive tactic to tamp down coronavirus transmission, which has risen rapidly following California’s June 15 reopening.

The hope is that measures like ramped-up masking will help rein in coronavirus transmission before stricter measures become necessary.
