NEW YORK (AP) – U.S. health officials on Tuesday renewed their recommendation that Americans wear masks on planes, trains and buses, despite a court decision last month to overturn the order. national mask on public transport.
Americans are 2 years old and older.
For months, the Transportation Safety Administration ordered passengers and workers to wear masks.
The government has repeatedly extended the mandate and the final mandate expired on 3 May. But a Florida federal judge lifted the Rule on April 18. On the same day, the TSA announced that it was no longer applying the warrant.
The CDC asked the Justice Department to appeal the decision, which the department made. On Tuesday, CDC officials declined to comment on the status of the appeal. Justice ministry officials did not immediately respond to a request for information.
