COVID Impacts in South Bay Region
The South Bay is a region of the Los Angeles metropolitan area in Southern California, which resides in the southwest corner of Los Angeles County. The South Bay name comes from its place on the map stretching along the southern shore of Santa Monica Bay. The South Bay region is a vibrant area filled with restaurants, bars, parks, beaches, and shops. The South Bay region includes at least fifteen cities that are vital parts of Los Angeles city life. These cities include the beach cities of Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Long Beach, Torrance, and stretches inland to the areas of Inglewood, which includes the large, international airport of LAX. The South Bay region, like many populated areas of the United States, has faced some major struggles with the COVID-19 pandemic. Businesses, schools, and public areas across the region have been shut down for months as the country was sent into quarantine. Now that we are 8 months into the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses have started to reopen, even though cases have not lowered. New precautions are being put in place in public places to help the safety of the residents. This has included the enforcement of wearing masks, increased sanitation, social distancing measures, and symptom checks. The other thing that the South Bay region has been doing is increasing the amount of tests that are being administered. Lifeline Health has assisted with this by opening a new testing site in Torrance, California that offers rapid results provided by COVID Clinic to residents of the South Bay region.
