New Jersey lifts mask mandate, social distancing rules in time for Memorial Day
New Jersey is lifting its mask mandate after having been one of the few holdouts in adopting the latest Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance, Gov. Phil Murphy announced Monday.
Murphy’s new directive, which takes effect Friday, the start of the Memorial Day weekend, gives New Jersey residents even those who aren’t fully vaccinated the green light to remove their masks and other face coverings in most cases. Matching the CDC’s guidance, the order excludes settings such as health care facilities, jails, schools, child care centers and public transportation networks.

CDC director defends controversial mask guidance Alexander Nazaryan © Provided by Yahoo! News
WASHINGTON Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, went to Capitol Hill on Wednesday to justify her agency’s proposed budget, only to confront pointed questions on last Thursday’s surprising and controversial guidance that vaccinated people no longer have to wear masks in most situations.
A renowned HIV/AIDS researcher new to national politics, Walensky had been confronted by aggressive questioning from GOP legislators in previous Capitol Hill appearances. This time she stuck to agency talking points on the new guidance, even if that did little to resolve the confusion from Thursday’s announcement.

White House denies there s supply shortage in wake of ransomware attack on major U.S. pipeline Jenna McLaughlin
WASHINGTON President Biden’s homeland security adviser, Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall, told reporters Monday afternoon that, despite disruptions created by a ransomware attack on a major U.S. pipeline over the weekend, the White House is not immediately concerned about fuel shortages or major damage to critical infrastructure.
“Right now there is not a supply shortage,” she said at the daily White House press briefing. “We are preparing for multiple contingencies because that is our job. . Colonial is currently working with its private cybersecurity consultants to assess potential damage and to determine when it is safe to bring the pipeline back online.”
