The news comes as several states and cities announced that they will be easing their mask restrictions and guidance. In Massachusetts, Gov. Charlie Baker shared on Monday that the state will relax its outdoor face coverings order in some circumstances, with face coverings being required only when it’s not possible to socially distance.
