Yay. Its over.

In most settings. Missing a key part
There are a handful of instances where people will still need to wear masks in a health-care setting, at a business that requires them or on an airplane even if theyve had their final vaccine dose two or more weeks ago, CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky is expected to tell reporters at a press briefing scheduled for 2 p.m. ET.

That's provided everyone else is fully vaccinated

Nah. I think I'll still wear my Power Rangers helmet.

"The new CDC guidance Thursday is likely to encourage more Americans, especially those still hesitant about getting the shots, to get vaccinated."

Ahh I see what they are doing.

"You hate masks? Get the vaccine and you won't have to wear one anymore!"

Wonder if it will work.

Tucker Carlson will be furious

The guidance makes sense.

Took em long enough to confirm those fringe conservative doctors

This is fine. Those who have refused vaccines (if they have been available) should take the risk on themselves, which is their body, their choice.

---

How kan that be when there are people who gotten both shots and still kaught it?

Bro.. I wasnt wearing a mask during this whole thing outside. I mean its outside why would you be wearing a mask anyways.

Most stores will still require them in communities with mask mandates. Unless they test you when you enter the store, nobody can tell if you are vaccinated or just not wanting to wear a mask

Nice

Yeah don't forget this is on a federal level. The next step will be for the state governments to follow up on it, which will likely be at their discretion based on vaccination percentage.

If you are in constant close proximity to someone you should be wearing a mask.

Example: standing in line outdoors very close to someone else.

Covid is over
