CDC Revises Mask Guidance

The CDC has updated its guidance, recommending that vaccinated Americans wear masks indoors in areas with high COVID-19 transmission rates. This change comes as new evidence shows that vaccinated individuals can still spread the virus. The CDC also advises that all children and teachers in K-12 schools wear masks, regardless of vaccination status, due to varying state policies. With low vaccination rates among youth and the potential for a severe fall season, experts emphasize the importance of increasing vaccination efforts to curb the virus's spread.
