COVID-19
If you tested positive for COVID-19, you should expect a call from a county public health specialist as part of an effort to contact trace and contain the spread of the virus. They are not law enforcement officers and will not ask about immigration status. The call will appear on your phone as “L.A. Public Health.” Please be aware that scammers are posing as contact tracers in LA County to steal personal information. Contact tracers will never ask for your financial information, so if you receive a call from someone asking for your social security number or bank account number, hang up immediately.
Due to public health concerns caused by COVID-19, every registered voter in California will receive a mail-in ballot in time for the November 2020 election. Voting from home will help protect yourself and others from the virus. Please run through the checklist below to ensure all your information is up to date. If you see something that’s outdated, you can change it by going to lavote.net or calling 800-815-2666.
As a reminder, indoor religious services at places of worship are prohibited in Los Angeles County. Outdoor services may take place, but must accommodate physical distancing for attendees. In addition, all visitors must wear a face mask at all times. For more information, go to covid19.lacounty.gov/recovery.
For COVID-19 testing, priority will still be given to individuals experiencing symptoms; people working or living in high-risk facilities such as nursing homes; and those who have been in close contact with someone known to have COVID-19.

All Californians are required to wear masks in public spaces, especially at indoor settings or when physical distancing is not possible. If you have questions or would like to report unsafe practices, please call the LA County Public Health Department or 3-1-1
