Wright-Patt eases mask requirements
By London Bishop - lbishop@aimmediamidwest.com
WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE Personnel at Wright Patterson Air Force Base who are fully vaccinated are no longer required to wear masks, according to a situation update by base leadership last week.
In a Facebook live town hall on May 19, installation commander Col. Patrick Miller laid out Wright-Patterson’s revised mask policy, stating that fully vaccinated personnel – meaning two weeks have passed since their last dose – are no longer required to wear a mask indoors or outdoors on the installation, effective immediately.
Installation personnel are not entirely out of the woods yet, however. Miller addressed the recent announcements regarding the state of Ohio health orders, emphasizing that Ohio and Wright-Patterson are two different entities.
