SAN FRANCISCO — Health officials in San Francisco and six other Bay Area counties have announced that they are reinstating a mask mandate for all indoor settings as COVID-19 infections surge.

Three other California counties have already adopted mandates as COVID rates rise because of the highly contagious delta variant.
