Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.This is a huge mistake. It gives a pass to anti-vaccine COVID deniers to spread the virus. COVID variants rapidly evolve. Increasingly contagious and deadly.
I will continue wearing a KN-95 mask in public indoor spaces. And not eat in restaurants.

I think it is a bit too early to drop mask mandates too.
A part of me wonders if the policy has more to do with the midterms than it does public health.
