Same here in many parts of NY - especially Long Island where we live.

It actually doesn't prohibit businesses from asking vaccination status. It does prohibit them from requiring documentation showing vaccination status to gain entry to the premises. The order specifically states that it "does not otherwise restrict businesses from instituting COVID-19 screening protocols in accordance with state and federal law to protect public health . . ." Maybe people could voluntarily submit their vaccination status to get an exemption from mask rules.

True, but it still makes it more difficult since there really can't be an official system for proving vaccination, and we already know the vaccination cards are very open to fraud. A system like this could work in some places, as long as the vaccinated people where given some sort of easily seen wrist band to prove they are allowed to remove their masks, but it would still make enforcement more difficult.
Might be worth while for a theme park to do, but I can't see most businesses wanting to bother with this.

I don’t think most people have much issue with wearing them for a few minutes in stores. Theme parks or other amusement venues may find it worthwhile to explore ways to exempt the vaccinated. When most people are vaccinated and the vaccine is available to all, it seems oppressive to make everyone wear masks.

Oh there's no way they'll be around that long, even inside. I think they'll be gone by October outside, maybe sooner. Or are you just kidding?

It is this way in NC as well. I will stop mask wearing 7 weeks after the date it was open to all. This way if you want to be fully vaccinated your are.

Which is the real reason vaccinated folks are still asked to wear a mask. It’s not about spread, it’s about keeping people from lying about being vaccinated

You are correct. People will be maskless in 2023 100%

Are Outdoor Mask Mandates Still Necessary? — The Atlantic
Governments need to give Americans an off-ramp to the post-pandemic world. Ending outdoor mask requirements would be a good place to start.

Spot on. So many of the rules are simply idiotic. Stay 6 feet away with masks on in line at the airport but then sit jam packed. Silly really.I agree with so much that’s said in this article.

No I was being serious - - - - - sure the US is doing great with vaccines. The rest of the world however.......not so much.
Too many people from around the globe to contend with.
Remember - - - once you are vaccinated you can get still get and transmit the virus...especially the new variants.
It is going to be a long road people - - we are in a GLOBAL pandemic. We are all effecting each other right now.
Sometime in 2023 we might get to be mask free.....that is a might.
Just my 2 cents
That is not proven to be true.
It also hasn't been proven to be false
I didn't say it hasn't. But the PP presented it as fact. This is how misinformation gets spread.It also hasn't been proven to be false
Your correct wording is a big issue. You could have said that there is no proof either way .

How is life in a place with no masks, no restrictions? How did you get there?
Masks and social distancing. Plus a proper lockdown .Not a half baked one.
