PITTSBURG, Kan. After weeks of surging cases due to the Delta variant of COVID-19, the CDC announced Tuesday afternoon that they are now recommending all US adults where a mask indoors, no matter their vaccination status, when in places of high transmission such as restaurants, stores, bars, schools, etc. While this is not a mandate, many businesses are now considering returning to requiring masks.
In Pittsburg, local restaurant Toast already reinstated some form of masking within its establishment.
“It is, and has been, our priority to keep our employees and customers (and their families) as safe as possible throughout the pandemic,” Toast posted on Instagram.
