The Statewide Mask Mandate Has Been Granted Full Stay

The New York State mask mandate is here to stay at least for now. The statewide mandate implemented by Gov. Kathy Hochul was granted a full stay on Monday.

The mask mandate by the governor was ruled unconstitutional but on Monday a State Supreme Court Judge granted the full stay during the state’s appeal. So masks will continue to be required in all public places including schools. The “mask or proof of vaccination” will stay in place through Thursday, Feb. 10th.

Gov. Hochul said she will reevaluate the policy every two weeks.

Mask up and stay safe out there.
