Eased Mask Guidelines From CDC Add Pressure on State to Lift Schools Mandate

With New York’s governor announcing that state will lift its school mask mandate, California and Hawaii are now the only states that have yet to announce a rollback for schools.

Millions of California students who have covered their faces for 8 hours a day and often many hours more during after-school activities, could soon have the option to shed their mandated face coverings. Under new CDC recommendations, the majority of school districts in California’s 58 counties would be allowed to remove masks falling under “low or medium” levels of transmission.

In the latest UC Berkeley/IGS poll, 61 percent still support mask mandates in schools. Thirty-seven percent disapprove, with the remaining undecided.
