As of Monday morning, mask wearing in Pennsylvania is no longer a mandate.

Dibattista, 69, and his wife, Chris, were among the many on Sunday at Westmoreland Mall who said they were ready to move forward, with the coronavirus seemingly in the rearview mirror as vaccinations progress and reports of new cases continue to decline throughout the state and region.
Gov. Tom Wolf’s mask mandate, imposed last summer, expires at 12:01 a.m. Monday, meaning both the vaccinated and unvaccinated can shed the face coverings that have been commonplace during the past year in public settings.
