Outdoor Masking Requirement Dropped In RI Regardless Of Vaccination Status

(Providence, RI)--Rhode Islanders who are both vaccinated and unvaccinated against COVID-19 are no-longer being asked to wear masks outdoors.That was the updated guidance issued by Governor Dan McKee and the state public health department on Tuesday, which itself was based on a new directive issued last week from the CDC.The new guidance covers outdoor live performances, youth sports and summer camps.Unvaccinated people in the Ocean State are still being strongly-encouraged to wear masks in crowded outdoor settings and other close-contact situations.
