Mask Mandates Ease in Prince George’s Monday, DC on Tuesday

As of Monday, Prince George’s County is making masks optional in indoor public spaces.

“All of the County’s key COVID-19 metrics have been trending in the right direction, and we expect that to continue in the weeks ahead,” said Dr. George Askew, the county’s deputy chief administrative officer for Health, Human Services, and Education.

However, masks will still be required on public transportation due to a CDC order, the county said.

The city of Laurel is also rescinding its mask mandate for city buildings and facilities.
