What the CDC Says You Can Do Without a Mask If You’re Fully Vaccinated

Americans can begin doing some of the things they had to stop because of the pandemic, the CDC said Tuesday in new health and safety guidelines. The agency announced that fully vaccinated Americans can now go maskless for outdoor activities like exercising, dining and small gatherings. People can remove masks when walking, running, hiking or biking alone or with members of their household. Small outdoor gatherings are also permitted but the agency has not specified how big they can be.
