COVID-19 vaccines are being handed left and right already, making almost half of the citizens in the United States fully vaccinated. But if you think fully-vaxxed folks can now ditch the face mask, hold your horses.
A few states such as California and Nevada have already seen several counties have reinstated the face mask requirement in light of the surging of COVID-19 cases. They're especially advising people to wear masks in all public indoor settings: malls, restaurants, grocery stores, and any other place where there's a high chance of virus transmission.
Perhaps the reinstatement of mask mandates is very much needed. While many Americans are indeed getting vaccinated, they're mostly skipping their second doses. That second dose is critical to receive the most protection from COVID-19, assuming the vaccine taken requires two doses like Pfizer, Moderna, or AstraZeneca.
