CDC Guidelines on Indoor Masks Changes
In late July, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended that vaccinated people resume masking indoors in certain parts of the country. In May, the CDC had issued guidance that vaccinated people no longer need to mask or physically distance in most indoor and outdoor settings. According to CDC data, about 46% of U.S. counties are considered high-transmission areas in which the new policy would be applicable.
