At Central Juvenile Hall, the aging youth facility located northeast of downtown Los Angeles, on Saturday, December 5, nine kids were in quarantine for exposure to the virus.

Three days later, however, that number had jumped to 111 kids at Central who had been exposed and thus quarantined for 14 days.

In total, that is 207 kids — or 58.2 percent of the two halls’ combined population of 346 young people — who are being quarantined for two weeks because of their exposure.
