CDC Says Public Transportation Mask Mandate No Longer In Effect

• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Tyler Durden

The CDC says it will not enforce the mask order but continues to recommend that people wear masks in indoor public transportation settings.

As a reminder, the U.S. Senate voted 57-40 last month to overturn the public health order requiring masks on airplanes and other forms of public transportation, drawing a veto threat from President Joe Biden.

The liberal dissonance is palpable...

Additionally, it appears the Biden administration has conceded the judge's ruling that the mask mandate was unlawful:

"TSA (Transportation Security Administration) will not enforce its Security Directives and Emergency Amendment requiring mask use on public transportation and transportation hubs at this time," the official said.

Brace for the blue-check backlash at this 'anti-science' decision. Unleash the virtue-signaling...

Nothing stops you wearing mask if you want to...

As @FrancoB411 explained in simple 'sciencey' terms...

"you are free to wear masks if you like... if they work, they will protect you, if they don't why mandate them?"

The CDC first issued a public health order requiring masks in interstate transportation in February 2021. The TSA issued a security directive to enforce the CDC order.

Since January 2021, there have been a record 7,060 unruly passenger incidents reported, 70 per cent involving masking rules, according to the FAA.
