CDC No Longer Recommends Universal Masking In Health Facilities

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention no longer recommends universal masking in health care settings, unless the facilities are in areas of high COVID-19 transmission.

The agency quietly issued the updates as part of an overhaul to its infection control guidance for health workers published late Friday afternoon. It marks a major departure from the agency’s previous recommendation for universal masking.

    Ha!! Tell that to the big city hospital I just retired from!! Bunch a woke twits there. Still masking. I am training my replacement, not sure why I agreed to stay on as a casual to do this. But is what it is. This week while there for a day, happened to be the mandatory flu shot and strongly recommended covid jab day. I said nope. But, but, but you have to! Guess I am finished here then. Bye…but, but, but…
