Great Day for America as CDC Announces Fully Vaccinated People Can Stop Wearing Masks
The CDC eased guidance for fully vaccinated people, a step toward life before the pandemic.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention eased its mask guidance for fully vaccinated people, allowing them to go without masks outdoors in crowds and in most indoor settings.
President Joe Biden welcomed the change in the Rose Garden, calling it a great day for America. Masks are still recommended in crowded indoor places such as buses, planes, hospitals, prisons and homeless shelters.
The guidance also removes social distancing requirements for fully vaccinated people and is meant to help reopen workplaces, schools and colleges.
