No more masks or social distancing in most situations.  We still have ti wear masks in medical buildings and on public transportation.  Most schools dropped the mask resident and camps, sports teams, dance classes etc can open.  I believe with no restrictions.  Teens are being vaccinated in high numbers.  Kids get it.  It's a great day.

It begins May 29 for us.  I think to give people a chance to get vaccinated.  A lot of hold outs are like to want to be vaccinated now.

Maryland Gov dropped mask mandate , However each business has their own requirements in mandating masks for customers.

Wish, the  preschool that my Grandson attend deop the masks ......

@skatting44  Why would you want the masks in preschool dropped when children under 12 can't be vaccinated?

 Yes, I do want the masks dropped for those under 12 . If you check the science , the incidence in young children very low .  If parents are concerned than they can madate their children in preschool wear masks  . teachers  who were all  provided opportunities  to be vaccinated along with other school auxiliary  staff , should all  be vaccinated by now.   There is no  conclusive evidence via research that  proves a mask  is essentail. What we do know is essential is good hand washing or use of hand gel and keeping your hands off your face   .  If you  decide to wear a mask the rest of your life and you can demand your own children to do so. I have a different opinion .

Kids that age should not be forced to wear a mask.  Kids die yearly from the flu and NEVER had to wear a mask.
