Chicago Mayor Lightfoot: ‘I’m Going to Continue to Wear a Mask’ and Encourage Others to Do So

‘We’ve got to make sure people continue to follow the public health guidance that has gotten us this far and masks I think are a big and important part of that’

EXCERPT:

LIGHTFOOT: “I think we’ve got to get some clarification from the CDC. The rollout obviously, the reporting has been a bit abrupt and I think they have a lot of clarifications they need to do. I know for me personally, I’m going to continue to wear a mask in public and I'm going to encourage others to do so. We’ve got to make sure that people continue to follow the public health guidance that has gotten us this far and masks I think are a big and important part of that. To say, well, if you’re vaccinated, you don’t have to wear a mask, that’s great but what about all of the other people out there that aren’t vaccinated, and there’s no way to know that? So I think for the time being, most people are going to continue to wear masks outside, outside of their homes, and I think that’s smart.”
