In major shift, CDC to announce fully vaccinated people can stop wearing masks indoors and outdoors

[Kobe Bryant]

When will Uber stop requiring face masks ?

Only got worse

Iinm, that means a driver "reported" you for not wearing a mask

Seems like that is supposedly the case. Although I have never not worn a mask on the few rides I have taken with Uber.

Yeah well you probably look Jewish

I ordered a Uber for my wife (from within the app) and the Uber driver cancelled the ride a few minutes after he accepted it.
When I tried ordering a new Uber it promoted me with that message.
So I reordered the Uber for my wife and sent a picture of myself in...

It seems that If the driver does not want to take the ride they can just say that the rider didn't have a mask. There is no accountability by them.

The new CDC guidelines are a disaster. Either everyone has a mask or no one does.
No need to state my position again.

"state mandated"

How about on buses?

How about on buses?

Mass transit still requires masks

How about on buses?

I beat you to it

Mazal Tov! Probably means 70% at least first dose (not necessarily fully).

Many of the annoying mandates (e.g. public transport) aren't state mandated. Wonder what this means for hospitals and nursing homes, they're state mandated but also high-risk.

The CDC extended the eviction moratorium   

Biden had already extended it, and courts ruled the cdc doesn’t actually have the authority to do that.

Still ends before mortgage deferments do. Nothing too crazy.

It seems it’s still up for debate

"small" difference: Mortgage payments you will need to pay one day. this lost rent will never be paid

Vaccinated teachers and students don’t need to wear masks inside school buildings, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Friday in relaxing its COVID-19 guidelines.

The changes come amid a national vaccination campaign in which children as young as 12 are eligible to get shots, as well as a general decline in COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths.
