America’s biggest county will be requiring commuters to keep their masks on.

Following the lifting of a federal mandate for masks in public transit, Los Angeles County is issuing an order that will require face coverings on its trains, buses, taxis and ride-shares. Masking will also be mandatory at indoor transportation hubs such as airports, seaports, bus and train terminals.
