Megan, where is the weirdest place in your house that you've found a mask?

Oh my goodness, probably inside my sunsauk.

I called up Dr. Megan Ranny.

She's an ER physician at Brown University.

So I wanted to ask her what I should do now with all of these masks.

I feel like I'm surrounded by masks.

Like they're in the glove compartment.

Like the worst is the masks that are hanging on the knobs of the kitchen cabinets.

Totally.

Oh, they're everywhere.

In just a few short weeks, much of the United States has upended its relationship with masks.

We've reached a new moment in the fight against COVID-19, where severe cases are down

to a level not seen since July of last year.

Just a few days ago, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention issued a new mask

guidelines.

Under the new guidelines, most Americans and most of the country can now go mask free.

Joe Biden laid out the reasoning here at the State of the Union.

And based on projection, more of a country will reach a point across that point across

the next couple of weeks.

And thanks to the progress we've made in the past year, COVID-19 no longer need control

our lives.

I know some are talking about this.
