Recently, the CDC has stated that fully vaccinated individuals can gather indoors, and states such as Florida and California have begun to look at relaxing restrictions. And now, another announcement is on the way.
According to CNN, President Joe Biden is expected to announce new requirements tomorrow for wearing masks outdoors. Dr. Anthony Fauci has stated that the CDC will be “updating their guidelines of what people who are vaccinated can do and even some who are not vaccinated,” which is believed to have influenced President Biden’s potential shift in policy.
