Pandemic-weary New Yorkers had their hopes deflated Thursday when Gov. Andrew Cuomo said he wasn’t ready to ease the state’s mask mandate — even though the feds gave the green light for vaccinated Americans to finally show their faces and gather indoors again.
In a late-afternoon statement, Cuomo said he and Health Commissioner
Howard Zucker had yet to decide if the Empire State would adopt newly
announced guidelines from the federal Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. “In New York, we have always relied on the facts and the science to
guide us throughout the worst of this pandemic and in our successful
reopening,” Cuomo said. “We have received the newly revised guidance from the CDC regarding
mask wearing and social distancing for those with vaccinations and are
reviewing them in consultation with Dr. Zucker and our partners and
health experts in surrounding states.” MORE FROM https://nypost.com/2021/05/13/gov-cuomo-says-ny-isnt-ready-to-follow-federal-advice-on-going-maskless/?utm_medium=browser_notifications&utm_source=pushly&utm_campaign=1005514
