Consultant Physicians Staff Association (CPSA) President Dr Sabriquet Pinder-Butler. NASSAU, BAHAMAS — Consultant Physician Staff Association (CPSA) President Dr Sabriquet Pinder-Butler suggested yesterday that not enough is known about the COVID-19 vaccine to adopt policies in The Bahamas that would allow residents to go maskless after being full vaccinated. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has advised that fully vaccinated individuals do not need to wear face masks or physically distance in any setting, “except where required by federal, state, local, tribal or territorial laws, rules and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance”. Wearing a facial mask remains a requirement in The Bahamas even for fully vaccinated individuals.
