New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Wednesday that the state is lifting its statewide “mask-or-vaccine” requirement for indoor businesses effective Thursday, Feb. 10.
There are big exceptions where mask requirements remain in effect, the governor said, including schools and childcare centers, as well as healthcare facilities, homeless shelters and corrections facilities.
Hochul said she spoke to Dr. Anthony Fauci, healthcare leaders, business leaders, school superintendents, and teachers unions before making her decisions.
