On Wednesday, October 6, the Los Angeles City Council leaders approved yet another mandate that requires those entering many indoor spaces to be vaccinated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This ordinance was passed by an approval of 11-2, which now mandates proof of both or full (as some have started to receive their booster shot) vaccines in order to enter restaurants, bars, shopping malls, gyms, museums, spas, nail salons, sports arenas, and other indoor facilities in the city starting by November 4.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If San Diego County decides to follow in the footsteps of Los Angeles, many San Diego business owners are getting ready to oppose and fight the mandate. Such a scenario is likely due to Supervisor Nathan Fletcher to be quite the follower and supporter of Gov. Newsom\u2019s policies, mandates, and shutdowns throughout the entire pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This will also affect the livelihoods of millions of people, now that the current vaccine eligibility includes children 12 and up.<\/span><\/p>\n Lou Uridel, owner of Metroflex Gym, located in Oceanside, stated in an interview with KUSI that this new mandate, and all those concerning vaccine mandates are, \u201cone of the stupidest things\u201d that could happen. Uridel has been one of the most vocal business leaders against shutdowns and mandates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWe already have a hard time with the job market going on,\u201d Uridel said. \u201cWe have to unite together and say \u2018no more\u2019 \u201d. Uridel encouraged others to follow his lead in standing up to people like Gavin Newsom and cited the Southwest Airlines situation as an example as what people can do when they organize and stand up to mandates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The business owner also continued to slam Nathan Fletcher for extending the state of emergency in the county, when there is no reason to. However, Uridel claimed that the Board of Supervisors will feel they have the power to do \u201cwhatever they want to do\u201d if this goes through.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Photo Cred: KUSI<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Written by Amanda Angulo On Wednesday, October 6, the Los Angeles City Council leaders approved yet another mandate that requires those entering many indoor spaces to be vaccinated.\u00a0 This ordinance was passed by an approval of 11-2, which now mandates proof of both or full (as some have started to receive their booster shot) vaccines…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":7271,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7270","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"\n
