People vaccinated against Covid-19 can go without masks indoors ....
and outdoors, CDC says!
People fully vaccinated against Covid-19 do not need to wear masks or practice social distancing indoors or outdoors, except under certain circumstances, the director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Thursday.
"If you are fully vaccinated, you can start doing the things that you had stopped doing because of the pandemic," Dr. Rochelle Walensky said during a White House Covid-19 briefing. "We have all longed for this moment when we can get back to some sense of normalcy."

I’m still going to wear my mask until most people are vaccinated because I fell safer doing that. I do look forward to being able to get together with vaccinated friends though.

Walensky's announcement has a few caveats. She warned that people who are immune compromised should speak with their doctors before giving up their masks.
The requirement to wear masks during travel -- on buses, trains, planes and public transportation -- still stands, Walensky said. Guidance for travel will be updated as science emerges.

I agree zeke...can't trust some of the LIARS, that say they were vaccinated when the truth is they really haven't been.
I'm wearing my mask as well...until we know better...
And don't forget to tell your CA daughter to wear her mask, on the plane when she's ready to return home.
