As states continue to lift their mask mandates, it can be hard to keep track of where you are still required to wear a face covering.
Details differ depending on state and county. Some states require a face-covering anytime an individual leaves his or her residence, while others provide instructions for where exactly masks must be worn. Most require masks in indoor public spaces such as restaurants and stores, on public transit and ride-hailing services, and outdoors when unable to maintain 6 feet of distance from others.
