Does this apply to the museums and the zoo? Would like to take my 2 year old when the weather gets a little nicer but he has some sensory issues and masks are a problem for him.

Vax mandates and Mask mandates are political and not based in science. The science hasn’t changed significantly in the last few days but we are seeing blue states/cities deciding to pull them.

While this is wonderful, this should have been done months ago.

You can see Bowser’s priorities clearly. Restaurants are more important than kids.

Seriously! When is the school mask mandate going to be dropped? I work in one of those "other" places and I am so so done with masks, but I'm sure I'll have to keep wearing it until schools drop theirs.

It destroys small businesses, especially restaurants.

Why, though? Most of DC is vaccinated, and this should encourage those who aren't to get vaccinated.

No it won’t. And there’s a not insubstantial part of the population that’s vaccinated but opposed to sweeping mandates.

Why so sudden? Internal polling or economic troubles?
