The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a sweeping order late Friday requiring the use of face masks on nearly all forms of public transportation from Tuesday as the country continues to report thousands of daily COVID-19 deaths.
The order, which takes effect at 11:59 p.m. EST on Monday, requires face masks to be worn by all travelers on airplanes, ships, trains, subways, buses, taxis, and ride-shares and at transportation hubs like airports, bus or ferry terminals, train and subway stations and seaports.
The CDC said people violating the order could potentially face criminal penalties, but suggested civil penalties would be more likely if needed.

The CDC is not Congress!!
On whose authority?
Kinda late don’t ya think? The best government money can buy.
No, but what they did instead of shutting it down is they reduced the service so they would crowd more people into each car. That was another exceptionally smart move by those geniuses deBlasio and Cuomo.
Joseph Stolen. I like that.
And where does the CDC get the authority to issue mandates and civil/criminal penalties?
Redundant, useless, they are late to the party. This has all been required where I live since at least March 2020. Clowns in full display.
I will not comply.

“What authority does the CDC have to issue such a mandate, especially if connected with criminal penalties?”
And why aren’t any of our elected critters asking these questions?
Since WHEN does the CDC have the power to MANDATE anything?
Laborers in India have been known to do the same thing to avoid being attacked by tigers.
What authority does the CDC have to issue such a mandate, especially if connected with criminal penalties?
Welcome to upside down Crazy Fake Prez Joe’s world.
Where dictates are the new norm, serf.
Now.....put on your mask and enjoy your public transportation.

Where are our elected critters?
Cue the Ha ha guy.
They’re NOTICEABLY silent on ALL that’s taken place, since Jan 6th.
I wonder how it works with tigers.
Or democrats.
Does anyone feel since the election we are no longer citizens, but subjects?
I think that’s pretty much in effect already.
LOL. I can’t do that. My ears are only flanged in the back.
I thought that was a horror movie. LOL
I just use a stapler.
I’m so sick of this crap. It’s time for the free states to secede. There will never be an expiration date on any of these encroachments on our freedoms, they’re gonna be forever. I’d rather die than live another year this way.
