Pennsylvania Mask Mandate Gone

Effective at 12:01 am today, Acting Secretary of Health Alison Beam lifted the statewide mask mandate. Beam continues to encourage Pennsylvanians to follow Centers for Disease Control guidance for wearing a maskwhere required by local business and workplace guidance. The CDC recommends individuals wear a mask on planes, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation, as well as airports and stations. Vaccinated individuals generally do not need to wear masks according to CDC guidance, except where required.
