Editorial: Los Angeles has a coronavirus leadership crisis (via latimesopinion)
Exactly who is in charge of the COVID-19 pandemic response in Los Angeles? The mayor of Los Angeles? L.A. County supervisors? County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer? Gov. Gavin Newsom? Someone else?
The comment was more than a little misleading. Garcetti can and has ordered businesses closed and reopened over the last few months within the city borders, and it is to his credit that he took early and decisive action. But his bigger point seems to be that making decisions of this magnitude at a municipal level doesn’t make sense, even for a gargantuan city like Los Angeles, and that there was some failure of leadership at the county and state level.
That may be unavoidable if hospitals start filling up here, as they have in other places. But we can’t go back to the old pandemic playbook this time.
