NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. health officials on Tuesday restated their recommendation that Americans wear masks on planes, trains and buses, despite a court ruling last month that struck down a national mask mandate on public transportation.

Americans age 2 and older should wear a well-fitting masks while on public transportation, including in airports and train stations, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended, citing the current spread of coronavirus and projections of future COVID-19 trends.

The article goes on to state the following:

For months, the Transportation Security Administration had been enforcing a requirement that passengers and workers wear masks.

The Biden administration had extended the mandate until May 3. However, a federal judge in Florida had struck down the mandate on April 18, prompting TSA to say they would no longer enforce it, and most airlines had announced masks were no longer required.

The CDC’s statement released on Tuesday, May 3, reads as follows:

At this time, CDC recommends that everyone aged 2 and older – including passengers and workers – properly wear a well-fitting mask or respirator over the nose and mouth in indoor areas of public transportation (such as airplanes, trains, etc.) and transportation hubs (such as airports, stations, etc.). When people properly wear a well-fitting mask or respirator, they protect themselves and those around them, and help keep travel and public transportation safer for everyone. Wearing a well-fitting mask or respirator is most beneficial in crowded or poorly ventilated locations, such as airport jetways. We also encourage operators of public transportation and transportation hubs to support mask wearing by all people, including employees.

This public health recommendation is based on the currently available data, including an understanding of domestic and global epidemiology, circulating variants and their impact on disease severity and vaccine effectiveness, current trends in COVID-19 Community Levels within the United States, and projections of COVID-19 trends in the coming months.

Along with staying up to date with COVID-19 vaccines, avoiding crowds, wearing a well-fitting mask or respirator is one of multiple prevention steps that people can take to protect themselves and others in travel and transportation settings.

  1. Hey CDC or any other government alphabetical agency trying to tell me how to live my life, FUCK you!! You all have already lost your “credibility” with the American people

  2. These people are just out to control everyone. Everyone needs to say no. I really don’t care if someone wants to wear a mask but I think it should be a choice!! Not forced. They just want to control us. F them!

  6. Haha keep a mask on a 2 year old. Haha keep masks on the autistic and downs little children that I work with. What. Give their parents a ticket for not enforcing or do you just take the children away because they have bad parents.

    I can’t believe this is the United States I grew up in. Land of the Free.

  7. A court ruling has more weight than a CDC recommendation. It’s about our constitutional rights not some unproven measure to control the masses and keep the fear alive.

    • CDC has no power of laws in the United States. Congress is the law makers. Executive branch doesn’t even have to power to make a law. President can’t. Mandate is just a suggestion.

  8. What a joke. I still see the occasional person wearing a (ineffective, pointless) mask. I used to say ‘wear one if you want to but don’t tell me I have to’. Now I say ‘This is getting ridiculous, people….’

  10. Doesn’t that violate your personal rights like you are screaming is happening if SC over turns roe? Cdc who are worthless democrat funneled money & false infO.

  12. They will never willingly end it! The only way it will end if when the American people make it end…by no longer complying with the BS!

  14. Funny i thought laws for enforcement were only done thru legislation i guess tyrannical government thinks any unelected agency can make up laws and we the ppl will follow🙄

  16. Gee didn’t see that one coming 🙄 they can go kick rocks. I don’t give the communist airline my money anyways. Take road trips people. It’s great family time with your kiddos. You don’t have to give in to travel places.

  17. No, we reject your non science based recommendations. You lie & double then triple down on the lies. These masks do not stop viral particulates, can lead to other harms & an actual respirator also isn’t rated for aerosolized matter & must be fit tested & medically cleared to wear, plus trained on usage. Airlines & other transportation better not decide to reinstate this pseudo science.

    • This is the truth
      The whole truth
      And nothing but the truth
      Masks don’t work and they have greatly affected our children who communicate reading their parents and teachers lips
      This whole COVID thing has set our educational system back at least 2 yrs
      This virus is proven to have a lesser effect on children than adults
      So WHY the masks?
      Nothing but control from fear mongering

  18. Say No!! Elections in November did what they are aiming for!!! I’ve already seen articles where they are suggesting Fall will bring new variant!!! L

  21. Here comes the shit show! All because they are gearing up for the election in November! Wait and see the new Stain they are making up to push more BS! They want to sent fear again! No way Jose! Or any Alphabet cdc! So tell me WHY the invasion people coming in thousand don’t have to wear mask?

    • You very well could be right. Really wouldn’t surprise me. Good thinking. Wish I and many others had thought of this possibility. Pray that God reveals the truth!!! God bless you!!!!!

  24. Why does the cdc have or think they have so much authority? They ARE NOT a government agency! They are a privately owned company!!!! They have NO CREDIBILITY!!! Especially now!! They’ve told nothing but LIES!!!

  25. Your recommendations do not apply to me! RESIST!!!! I’m sure there will still be quite a few sheep running around wearing them because they’ve unleashed such fear on them for so long!

  31. Just remove the vaccinated and keep the naturally immune and others who were vaccinated and got COVID anyway and we should be fine!

  35. Why would anyone in their right minds listen to these idiots after flip flopping decisions ?
    Wear the mask ! Don’t wear the mask ! Wear it if you want ! I say let freedom reign and you can choose what you feel is right for you.

  36. They can go ### themselves. Mask From N95 and Down do NOTHING FOR VIRUSES. WHICH ARE FROM 1/2 TO Q MICRON. N95 MASK FILTER FROM 3 MICRONS AND UP. THE ONLY MASK THAT WILL OROTECT YOU FROM CREATED COVID VIRUSES IS ONE THAT HAS DEDICATED OXYGEN TO IT. PERIOD. EVERYTHING ELSE IS A LIE.

  37. Last week while waiting in a short line the “masked” idiot in front of me asked me to move back. I was only about 3ft from her. I took a small step back. I later passed her in the Mall. I told her that if she can breath thru that piece of fabric, then germs can get in. She thanked me. I am so tired of the whole farce. If we had let it run it’s course, it would be completely behind us by now. It is a virus for goodness sake.
