The CDC Says Vaccinated People Can Go Without Masks Indoors And Outdoors!

The director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced today that people who are fully vaccinated will no longer have to wear masks or practice social distancing indoors or outdoors. Dr. Rochelle Walensky said during a White House Covid-19 briefing,

"If you are fully vaccinated, you can start doing the things that you had stopped doing because of the pandemic. We have all longed for this moment when we can get back to some sense of normalcy. It's an exciting and powerful moment. The science supports the updated CDC guidance that anyone who is fully vaccinated can participate in indoor and outdoor activities large or small without wearing a mask or physical distancing."


Along with Walensky's announcement, she warned that those who are immune compromised should speak with their doctors before giving up their masks. Keep in mind that the you will still have to wear masks during travel including buses, trains, planes, and public transportation. The guidance for travel will be updated as science emerges. She also noted that those who develop COVID-19 symptoms even those who are vaccinated, should put their mask back on and get tested.

Once someone is fully vaccinated, which is two weeks after the final dose, you can get rid of your mask. Some may choose to continue to wear a mask even if they are fully vaccinated, which is totally fine. Dr. Anthony Fauci said,

"People have to make their own personal choice. There's absolutely nothing wrong with an individual who has a certain level of risk aversion, as we know the risk is extremely low of getting infected whether you're indoors or outdoors. But there are those people who don't want to take that bit of a risk and there's nothing wrong with that and they shouldn't be criticized."
