What the new CDC mask guidance means for kids under 12
When the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued its new mask guidance last week, it didn’t include guidance to vaccinated parents who have unvaccinated children, leaving many parents confused about what to do.
The new guidance says people who are fully vaccinated against Covid-19 may go without masks in most circumstances and don’t have to keep their distance from others. But everyone who is not vaccinated should continue wearing a mask as usual and that means everyone under the age of 12, the only group not eligible now for any of the vaccines in use in the United States.
