Similar to guidelines already implemented in New York and San Francisco, this order applies to establishments serving food or drink, gyms, entertainment venues, shopping malls and beauty salons.
Supermarkets and pharmacies are not affected by these provisions, which will come into force at the beginning of November.
“We have spent too much time imposing restrictions on people who have played the game by getting vaccinated and wearing masks. We must limit the transmission of the virus, but also complicate the task of the non-vaccinated who go to closed places and put lives in danger ”, had pleaded the president of the city council, Nury Martinez.
Businesses that violate these guidelines will be subject to fines, the amount of which will increase in the event of a repeat offense.
The directive was adopted by eleven votes to two.
Exemptions are provided for in the event of medical contraindications or religious beliefs incompatible with vaccination.
Los Angeles will also require proof of vaccination or a negative test to attend all outdoor events with 5,000 or more spectators.
The Los Angeles School District announced in early September that the vaccine would become mandatory for all students 12 and older who wish to physically attend classes. It gives its 220,000 eligible students until the end of the year to be fully vaccinated.
Mask-wearing and vaccination have become political issues that divide many Americans.
Although scientists insist on the effectiveness of the vaccine against severe forms of COVID-19, a minority of Americans, often very upset, believe that the vaccination obligation and other health restrictions are an intolerable attack on their individual freedoms. .
Some Republican governors, like in Florida or Texas, have even wanted to ban municipalities from making mask wearing mandatory in their states.
The coronavirus has infected nearly 44 million Americans since the start of the pandemic and killed more than 700,000 people, according to Johns Hopkins University, a world record.
