Kathryn Barger clarified that 'many of' Hollywood's 890,000 entertainment employees are not working due to the shutdowns, a figure she attributed to Universal's Donna Langley

Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors chair Kathryn Barger on Wednesday delivered “sobering” statistics that reveal how devastating the COVID-19 pandemic has been on entertainment industry professionals.

"Anyone listening to yesterday’s meeting heard loud and clear that employees and businesses are suffering," said Barger, referencing other data to come from the meeting, including that as many as one million unemployment claims have been filed in the county alone, while as many as 80 percent of restaurant employees are out of work. California has reported a record 4.6 million unemployment claims filed since March 12, levels not seen since the Great Depression.

At the meeting, Barger announced a July 4 target date for reopening retail, restaurants and malls. On Wednesday, she added "recreation" to that list, while revealing that some sectors may be able to open before the July 4 date if plans are submitted and approved.
