N.Y & L.A. to Consider Vaccine Mandate for Theaters

As the COVID-19 DELTA variant continues to spread, cities are preparing for the future and that includes mandating vaccines for theater entry. Variety has reported that The Los Angeles City Council will consider imposing a vaccine requirement for entry into restaurants, gyms and movie theaters, a day after the City of New York set a similar mandate.

L.A. City Council President Nury Martinez  introduced a motion at the council on Wednesday.

“Enough is enough already,”

“We have three vaccines that work and are readily available, so what’s it going to take?”

This could be a game changer if the two biggest theater markets mandate vaccines for entry.
