LA County has made modifications to masking rules. See here for detailed rules and recommendations.

EVERYONE* MUST wear a mask:

On planes, trains, buses, ferries, taxis and ride-shares, and all other forms of public transport
In transportation hubs like airports, bus terminals, train stations, marinas, seaports or other ports, subway stations, or any other area that provides transportation
In healthcare settings
In long-term care settings and adult/senior care facilities
In state and local correctional facilities and detention centers
Shelters and cooling centers
In any other location where it is the policy of the business or venue

Masks are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED for EVERYONE in:

Indoor public settings and businesses such as retail, restaurants, theaters, family entertainment centers, cardrooms, meetings, state and local government offices that serve the public.
Indoors at K-12 schools and daycare

Additional mask recommendations

Masks are strongly recommended indoors or in crowded outdoor settings for people at high risk of severe illness, or who live with someone who is at high risk. Masks that provide the best protection against COVID-19 should be worn. Examples include a well-fitting respirator (e.g., N95, KN95) or a double mask (a well-fitting cloth mask over a medical mask).
Masks are strongly recommended for people who are gathering indoors with people who are at high risk of severe illness.

Note: When masks are required, you are allowed to take off your mask while you are:

Actively eating or drinking.
Alone in a separate room or space.
Showering or swimming.
Receiving personal hygiene or personal care services (like a facial or shave) that cannot be done without removing your mask.

*There are some people who should not wear a mask, such as children younger than 2, people with certain medical conditions or disabilities, and people instructed by their medical provider not to wear a mask. Children ages 2 to 8 should wear a mask only when under adult supervision. See Who should not wear a mask and Special considerations for persons with communication difficulties or certain disabilities.
