New Jersey to drop indoor masking before holiday, Murphy says
The Peninsula
New Jersey will discontinue mandatory indoor masking rules for fully-vaccinated residents on Friday ahead of the Memorial Day holiday weekend that kicks off vacation season, Governor Phil Murphy said Monday.
Health-care settings, long-term care facilities, child-care settings, schools and public transit will still require masks, he said. Masks should still be worn in public-facing state facilities. "If you feel more comfortable wearing a mask, you may continue to do so,” he said at a virus update in Trenton. "We will not tolerate anyone being demeaned or bullied or excluded for wanting to continue to mask up.”More Related News
