DALLAS â A vast number of Texans are poised to return to pre-pandemic lifestyles thanks to new guidance issued this week by federal health officials about masks.
In a striking signal that the country is one step closer to returning to normalcy, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Thursday that people fully vaccinated against COVID-19 no longer have to wear face masks or social distance at gatherings of any size. Kids 12 and older are now eligible for the Pfizer-BioNTech shot and there is increased evidence of the vaccinesâ effectiveness in preventing infection and transmission of the disease.
As people shed their masks and celebrate, questions remain about how the new guidance will affect children who are not yet eligible for vaccines. Kids under 17 make up a small percentage of coronavirus cases, nationally and in Texas. But parents want to know how to best protect their kids.
