Californians will have to keep wearing face masks indoors past Valentine’s Day regardless of vaccination, the state’s top health official said Wednesday as COVID-19 cases reached a new record fueled by the fast-spreading omicron variant of the virus.

Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly said the face mask mandate will be extended a month to February 15 and reevaluated then.
