In the US, those vaccinated against COVID were allowed not to wear masks "in most cases" The

In the United States , citizens who have completed a full course of vaccination against coronavirus may not wear masks, according to the White House Twitter page.

“Great news from the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. - ): if you are fully vaccinated, you do not need to wear a mask (both indoors and out) in most cases,” the White House said in a statement.

Until the end of April, people over the age of two were required to wear masks in the US. The exception was those who cannot wear them for health reasons or due to the performance of official duties.

In late April, the CDC eased restrictions and allowed those who had completed their full course of vaccinations not to wear a mask outdoors while walking, running, hiking, cycling alone or with a small number of others. At the same time, masks still had to be worn in crowded places, such as stadiums.
