Utah man accused of threatening president pointed gun at agents, FBI says

Pasadena Maintains Masking and COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements for Health Care Workers – Office of the City Manager

Pasadena Public Health Department (PPHD) reminds the community that health care workers (HCW) in Pasadena must be up to date with COVID-19 vaccination and must wear masks in healthcare and direct care settings as required by Pasadena Health Officer Orders.

Pasadena has observed evidence of a surge in local COVID-19 cases. Over the last month, there has been a 35% increase in weekly cases. We know this is an underestimate of cases because of the widespread adoption of at-home antigen tests, which do not require reporting to the public health department. Additionally, the COVID-19 test positivity rate in Los Angeles County increased from 5.5% to 7.6% this week. A spike from previously stable rates this year.
