Los Angeles County Health Director, Barbara Ferrer, saying the reopening timeline for Los Angeles County Schools would come sometime after the November 2020 election.
Barbara Ferrer was on a conference call with local educators, school nurses and other groups discussing the upcoming flu season, when the statement below was made.
โWe donโt realistically anticipate that we would be moving either to Tier 2 [of Californiaโs reopening plan] or to reopening K-12 schools at leastโฆuntil after the election, after, you know, in early November. If we just look at the timing of everything, it seems to us the most realistic approach to this would be to think that weโre gonna be where we are nowโฆuntilโฆwe are done with the elections.โ
