WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Joe Biden’s administration confirmed late on Tuesday it plans to extend requirements for travelers to wear masks on airplanes, trains and buses and at airports and train stations through Jan. 18 to address ongoing COVID-19 risks.
A Transportation Security Administration (TSA) spokesperson confirmed the extension, first reported by Reuters. “The purpose of TSA’s mask directive is to minimize the spread of COVID-19 on public transportation,” the spokesperson said.
Major U.S. airlines were informed of the planned extension on a call with TSA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Tuesday, four people briefed on the matter said.
The current TSA transportation mask order runs through Sept 13. The extension reflects the impact of the highly transmissible Delta variant and is an acknowledgement that transit remains potentially risky, especially for unvaccinated people.

I thought this guy had all the answers to solve COVID. Now we are into 2022.
White flag raised in Afghanistan.
Totally porous southern border.
Inflation raging at ≥ 5.4%.

“Not forever...just 100 days”....times what?

I blame republicans the utter SPINELESS republicans who are the lesser of two evil…./s BUT HEY don’t EVER utter the words NEW PARTY!!!
Covid-Covid-Covid
Bull5hit-Bull5hit-Bull5hit.
So once the train or bus leaves the station and reaches cruising speed or the plane reaches flight deck—everyone remove your damn diaper.
What are “they” going to do? Return? Hardly.
Gonna put y’all back in chains!
“Mandates ain’t laws!”
I won’t consider taking your health “orders” seriously UNLESS and UNTIL you take our BORDERS seriously!
Two weeks to flatten the curve! 😷😷😷
Inflation is closer to 20% than 5%. The official measures are intentionally way off.

“U.S. will extend COVID-19 transport mask mandate through Jan. 18”
Unless you’re Libtards fleeing Texas then that’s OK.
Oh, look! There go those goalposts, moving, AGAIN. Anyone who thinks the “mandate” is going away January 18th is seriously delusional. I’d love to see a Vegas odds-maker’s line on this stuff.
I’m wagering on November 8, 2022.
This masking must go through 2022 elections at the very least. Gotta have the election fraud avenues the same as 2020.
Well, January is cold and flu season. Gotta keep the masks on just until spring, just to be safe. Then watch as some new Coof variant with allergy symptoms appears, etc.
Come on man! Orange man bad had no plan, but I, uh, uh, tougher as Americans…..thank you and god protect our troops.
