WAMPSVILLE, N.Y. — Madison County officials say they’re not mandating that fully vaccinated residents wear masks, as the county’s transmission level is currently categorized as “moderate.”
The Madison County Board of Health and the Madison County Department of Health said they reviewed the recent recommendations on mask wearing from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
“Given that the virus transmission level in Madison County and our region is moderate, and not at the high or substantial levels noted by the CDC, the CDC recommendations do not apply and we are therefore not mandating masks to be worn by fully vaccinated individuals. However, we do recognize that wearing a mask, even if you are fully vaccinated, provides additional protection, and we encourage this practice,” Madison County said in a statement.
