“What will that mean for mask guidance and mandates?”
For me, it means sweet FA, because I’m not doing any of it. Period.
PREDICTION - In 2024 there will be no flu or colds and every death regardless of cause will be reported as COVID.

I saw an approx 40 year old woman in the parking lot next door this morning wearing a mask. She had just gotten out of her car.

Let’s see...
Muzzles are still fomites.
Employees still violate their own infection control protocols with regard to muzzles.
But employees are now required to wear them while patients and visitors are not.
Hmmmm....
