(KLKN) – As we slowly ease out of restrictions with vaccinations rising, Dr. Anthony Fauci recently said he still expects masks to be a seasonal occurrence for many people. A similar idea is shared by local experts. “There are really two scenarios where I see mask use in the future. One is more of what we’re seeing right now with public health mandates,” Dr. Jim Nora with Bryan Health said, “there’s likely to be another scenario where people may be wearing masks and that’s more on a voluntary basis.”
