U.S. Health Officials say that fully vaccinated Americans do not need to wear masks outdoors anymore unless they are in a big crowd of strangers. Those who are unvaccinated can go without a face mask outside in some cases, too, according to msn.com

The CDC guidance says that whether fully vaccinated or not, people do not have to wear masks outdoors when they walk, bike or run alone or with members of their household. They also can go maskless in small outdoor gatherings with fully vaccinated people, msn.com continues.

Unvaccinated people (defined by the CDC as those who have yet to receive both doses of the Pfizer, Moderna, or the one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine) or is has notbeen two weeks since the final shot, should wear masks at outdoor gatherings that include unvaccinated people. They should also keep using masks at outdoor restaurants, msn.com continues.

Fully vaccinated people do not need to wear masks in those situations as well, the CDC says, as reported by msn.com.
