COVID-19 Continues to be a part of our lives and masks continue to be a necessary safety measure.

It is the recommendation of the CDC to continue wearing masks indoors to ensure the safety of those around us.

Midtown has free N95 masks available to households in are the Midtown Neighborhood. A packet of masks can be picked from the Midtown office at 1147 FULTON ST E.

Everyone 2 years or older who is not fully vaccinated should wear a mask in indoor public places.

• In general, you do not need to wear a mask in outdoor settings.

  • In areas with high numbers of COVID-19 cases, consider wearing a mask in crowded outdoor settings and for activities with close contact with others who are not fully vaccinated.

• People who have a condition or are taking medications that weaken their immune system may not be fully protected even if they are fully vaccinated. They should continue to take all precautions recommended for unvaccinated people, including wearing a well-fitted mask until advised otherwise by their healthcare provider.

• If you are fully vaccinated, to maximize protection and prevent possibly spreading COVID-19 to others, wear a mask indoors in public if you are in an area of substantial or high transmission.

• Wearing a mask over your nose and mouth is required on planes, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation traveling into, within, or out of the United States and while indoors at U.S. transportation hubs such as airports and train stations. Travelers are not required to wear a mask in outdoor areas of a conveyance (like on open deck areas of a ferry or the uncovered top deck of a bus).
