's rant suggesting the Emmys broke COVID safety rules is misguided ... at least according to the L.A. County Department of Health, which is refuting some of his comments.
The Health Dept. tells TMZ ... yes, the current mandate in L.A. requires everyone to wear a mask indoors -- whether vaccinated or unvaccinated -- but it also says exceptions are made for film, TV and music productions. The county says the Emmy Awards qualify as a TV production, and all the people appearing on the show are considered performers ... so masks were not a must for attendees.
Additionally, the Dept. of Health says there were extra safety modifications in place for the event. Yes, everyone had to be fully vaxxed ... but they also had to have a verified negative COVID test within 48 hours of the show. Crew members were either fully vaccinated or recently tested as well. Overall, the Public Health office says the Emmys reached out to share its safety protocols and they"exceeded the baseline requirements for television and film productions."Still, Rogen's speech during the ceremony was about more than just the optics of all the maskless celebs sitting close to one another. He also claimed Emmy officials promised them the show would be outdoors, and
Hmm convenient.. I guess being rich deters the virus
😂 wheres the 🐑 now...?
When the media says it's safe:
Can I declare my apartment COVID safe? It has great ventilation and is clean.
Hollywood hypocrisy….
The only way this could have been covid safe is if everyone involved isolated several days before the show. That means no exposure to anyone. And we all know that didn’t happen.
What if some patrons were asymptomatic and don’t show or have symptoms? I’m definitely not one to wear the mask, but it puzzles me. Just how safe is it really?!
WE THOUGHT 'COIN' IS GOD, SPACEX, MULTIVERSES, ETC. BUT THE TEAM HERE AGREED, MONEY IS GOD. IT'S AN ENERGY FREQUENCY, MAKE PEOPLE DO INTERESTING THINGS. LIKE BEING IN CALIFORNIA, THEN MOVE TO OTHER STATES, LIKE TEXAS. OR GO ABROAD. EXPLORE THE WORLD. OR MOUNT SHASTA, 5 HOURS
So I guess wearing masks and obeying. The pandemic rules is only for POC. And not for rich white people.AMERIKKK.
Lol
Double standards
Let's see how many come up positive and then come on twitter and preach how you must get vaccinated. Asymptomatic people will not test positive if COVID-19 hasn't incubated at the time of testing...
So if you are rich then you are exempt from the mask mandate. If you are the mayor of San Francisco and got the feels you are exempt but kids and normal Americans are not because of why again? How it is Covid safe? Vaccinated doesn’t stop the spread or transmission
Hollywood receives a pass. As when outdoor dining was shut down at the pineapple saloon right next to tents set up to feed crew on a film production last year. It’s not like Covid rules are the only rules connected people get to ignore. Just the most obvious ones at the moment.
ThomasEWoods just wow…
Why isn’t Biden, Harris and Newsom not condemning this! Rules don’t apply to their donors.
Cool I identify as an Emmy attendee so I’m exempt
Masks for thee but not for me... EndTheMaskMandate
WTF? See this is that bullshit!!
Lol, privilege on full display.
This is total bullshit I don’t care who you are.
Boring too?
I identify as a celebrity
Fucking bullshit.
COVID is repulsed by celebrity smugness.
Lol aholes
Exempt on what basis? Ridiculous!
As a kid whenever I questioned something my parents told me, I always got “because I said so” as a reason. Glad to see nothing has changed.
is this domestic terrorism
This is like porn stars being exempt from condoms. Spoiler alert: they still catch herpes.
And where’s the science to prove that? 🤷♂️
Funny because Tom Cruise was caught screaming at his entire crew for 'not taking this seriously and not wearing masks' during some filming recently. Big cope.
Making 6 figures is actually better than the vaccine at stopping covid. Only dirty poor people get it
That’s because covid is so intelligent.
😂😂😂
What the fuck does COVID safe even mean
Clown show 🤡🎪
Lmaooo COVID took a break and watched also?
Fuck the emmys
the antivaxers will be furious. celebrity events and BLM protests are the only 2 events that should be stopped due to covid
meanwhile karaoke and AA meetings still closed in CA. WTF lol
The hypocrisy is real
🤡 world we live in folks
I don't think so. This is why my friend Jen didn't attend.
COVID rich safe
Whatever y’all did do it for us🤷🏾♂️
