The mask mandate was originally set to expire on April 18, but the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention extended it through May 3, citing the need to assess the impact of a new coronavirus subvariant that is driving most"Right now, we're waiting to see how this new BA.2 variant, this newer subvariant of Omicron, how that's going to play out across the country. If it turns out to be pretty mild, the CDC was planning to let those mandates expire," Gounder said.
"We know that this virus mutates. In fact, it's mutating very rapidly," she said."We will see more variants, and we will see other pandemics after COVID. So I do think the idea of stripping ourselves of an essential tool and toolbox is a really bad idea."
