LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Fully vaccinated Californians will be able to stop wearing face masks in most situations beginning Tuesday, when the bulk of COVID-19 restrictions are lifted, but masks will remain mandated in some settings, including at indoor K-12 schools and on public transportation, according to rules released today.
Masks will also still be required in health-care, child-care and correctional facilities, and at homeless shelters. Private business owners and venue operators, meanwhile, will still have the option of requiring all patrons to wear masks.
The state guidance on mask-wearing largely mirrors rules announced last month by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. According to state Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly, people who are not vaccinated will still be required to wear masks in indoor public settings, including retail stores, movie theaters and government offices.
