The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was expected as early as next week to loosen its guidance on indoor masking as COVID cases and hospitalizations continue to drop and the White House considers a new nationwide strategy to move past the pandemic.
The agency’s update could come as early as next week, NBC News reported.
Nothing has been finalized yet, but the CDC is considering a new benchmark for whether masks are needed, basing it on the level of severe disease and hospitalizations in a given community, two people familiar with the situation said.

Do you care about the dead children? or the covid orphans? because your post seems to imply you care more about mild inconvenience than life-long physical, psychological, and spiritual damages.
about, for example, the children who committed suicide because they were brainwashed into thinking that they’re filthy disease-carriers who are responsible for the deaths of others. But let me guess – those count as a “minor inconvenience” to you. As for “conspiracy theory websites” – funny you should mention that. How many of those “conspiracy theories” turned out to be simply “facts that went against the official narrative, but have turned out to be true”? It was a “conspiracy theory” at one point that the “two weeks to flatten the curve” would be more than that; well, we’re coming up… Read more »
