CDC: Many Healthy Americans Can Take A Break From Masks

The CDC has updated its mask guidance, indicating that most Americans no longer need to wear masks indoors, including in schools, unless they are in high-risk areas. The new guidelines categorize areas into low, medium, and high-risk levels based on hospital data and case numbers. Only about 30% of the U.S. population is in high-risk areas where masks are still recommended. The TSA's mask mandate for federal places like airports remains in place until March 18th. The CDC will update risk maps weekly, and local guidance may vary.
