Can someone explain to me why masks are still required in schools per CDC in select states?

The CDC updated their 'guidance' many weeks ago stating that children were allowed to be within 3' of eachother, and Cuomo himself has stated repeatedly throughout the last year that schools were 'the safest place to be' in regards to infection rate etc.

Tired of the bullshit here in New York…

Cuomo still at the helm… for how much longer?

'Children will still be required to wear face masks at school for the remainder of the school year, regardless of vaccinations, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention asserted Tuesday — despite the country recording its lowest number of new daily COVID-19 infections since last summer.

CDC chief Rochelle Walensky doubled down on the current guidance for students at a White House coronavirus briefing — and stopped short of saying whether the public health agency would lift the mask mandate for the new school year.

The guidelines for schools — which recommend face coverings be worn at all times, except when eating or drinking — go against the CDC’s announcement last week that fully vaccinated Americans can go mask-free indoors in most circumstances.'
