It is unclear why in-person meetings are currently closed. The Helen Albert Farmer’s Market was closed this week as a precaution during the rise in COVID-19 cases across Los Angeles County.
It is perfectly clear WHY “in-person meetings are currently closed” at West Hollywood City Hall, we have a raging COVID-19 Omicron Variant Pandemic☣ and, lockdowns are a necessary part of nonpharmaceutical methods of disease containment. Early on in the pandemic these disease containment measures have failed to be done and done right the first time throughout the United States (along with dangerous antivaxx misinformation), we failed at disease containment & eradication and, end up dealing with a new & even worse variant. Even BEFORE safe & effective COVID-19 vaccines were readily available, lockdowns are attributed to saving millions of lives❗
