CDC extends transit masking after scrapping Title 42 for migrants

By Callie Patteson and Allie Griffin, NY Post,  April 13, 2022:

The CDC has announced it has extended the mask mandate on public transportation another 15 days to May 3.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Wednesday that it plans to extend the mask mandate on public transportation another 15 days — despite scrapping the Title 42 public health authority over illegal immigrants earlier this month due to the wide availability of coronavirus treatments.

The order to cover up had been set to expire April 18, but will now go away no earlier than May 3.

No such concerns were present on April 1, however, when the agency announced it was winding down Title 42 — which permitted Border Patrol officials to expel migrants without hearing asylum claims due to the ongoing pandemic — on May 23.

At that time, the CDC cited “current public health conditions and an increased availability of tools to fight COVID-19 (such as highly effective vaccines and therapeutics)” as its reasoning for ending the policy.
