Our admin sent an email this afternoon saying that the mask policy from March of last year was still in effect. Since vaccination, I have not worried with the mask much as long as I stay on my hallway. If I need to go far from my office/lab, I still mask up. The CDCs announcement won't change anything for me, at least not at work.

District policy here continues with mandatory masks till the end of the year. Policy will be revisited over the summer.Originally Posted by pangloss
Same on my end.

I read last week that part of vaccine hesitancy is "what's in it for me?"
My concern is that we're not going to get anywhere near herd immunity, which means that mutations occur and it takes time and cases before we know if the vaccines are effective against them. Even if the vax does work for mutations, it's getting less effective over time. So it seems to my non-expert self that it's relatively safe right now, but probably won't be in the future. If everything continues to stay cool until Christmas, I'll be glad to have been proven wrong.

How often do you change those? Clean and re-use?

I'm keeping my mask policy at my office while I try to figure out what to do. Things for me to mull over:
1) Not all of my staff are vaccinated. I cannot force them to get vaccinated.
2) Since the mask/cleaning policy, none of them have called in sick (yay!) the whole year. Prior to the pandemic, they were out a lot for the flu and cold.
3) There are worker's comp considerations to be addressed. If they get persistent ailments from a COVID infection that puts them out of work, it could be a worker's comp situation. I got COVID in December and I was out of work for 2 weeks!
4) In Maricopa County, the vaccination rate is only about 29%. Far from herd immunity.
