PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY TO
PROTECT THEMSELVES AND OTHERS
AND I HOPE WILL ENCOURAGE PEOPLE
TO GET FULLY VACCINATED.
THERE ARE MANY SITUATIONS WHERE
FULLY VACCINATED PEOPLE DO NOT
NEED TO WEAR A MASK,
PARTICULARLY IF THEY ARE
OUTDOORS AS SHOWN BY THE GRAPHIC
ON THE RIGHT.
IF YOU ARE FULLY VACCINATED AND
WANT TO ATTEND A SMALL OUTDOOR
GATHERING WITH PEOPLE VACCINATED
OR UNVACCINATED OR DINE AT AN
OUTDOOR RESTAURANT WITH FRIENDS,
THE SCIENCE SHOWS YOU CAN DO SO
SAFELY UNMASKED.
WE HAVE POSTED EXAMPLES OF
NUMEROUS OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES THAT
ARE SAFE TO DO WITHOUT A MASK IF
YOU ARE FULLY VACCINATED.
GENERALLY, FOR VACCINATED
PEOPLE, OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES
WITHOUT A MASK ARE SAFE.
HOWEVER, WE CONTINUE TO
RECOMMEND MASKING IN CROWDED
OUTDOOR VEN
OUTDOOR VENUES SUCH AS CROWDED
STADIUMS WHERE IT IS CROWDED AND
MANY UNVACCINATED PEOPLE ARE
PRESENT.
WE WILL CONTINUE TO RECOMMEND
THIS UNTIL WIDESPREAD
VACCINATION IS ACHIEVED.
INDOORS, WE HAVE UNVACCINATED
PEOPLE ON THE LEFT WHERE NOTHING HAS CHANGED.
HAS CHANGED. ON THE LEFT WHERE N
HAS CHANGED. ON THE LEFT WHERE N HAS CHANGED.
GIVEN WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT
COVID-19 AND ITS EFFICACY,
PEOPLE CAN RETURN TO ACTIVITIES
THEY LOVE DOING INSIDE WHILE
WEARING A MASK.
THE EXAMPLES COMPARE THE SAFETY
OF ACTIVITIES AND IF YOU ARE
VACCINATED OR NOT.
AS WE GATHER MORE DATA ON THE
REAL WORLD VACCINES, WE KNOW
MASKED, FULLY VACCINATED PEOPLE
CAN ATTEND CHURCH SERVICES, GO
TO A BAR AND EVEN PARTICIPATE IN
AN INDOOR EXERCISE CLASS.
WE KNOW THE VIRUS SPREADS VERY
WELL INDOORS.
UNTIL MORE PEOPLE ARE VACCINATED
AND WHILE WE STILL HAVE MORE
THAN 50,000 CASES A DAY, MASK
USE INDOORS WILL PROVIDE EXTRA
PROTECTION.
THE EXAMPLES TODAY SHOW THAT
WHEN YOU ARE FULLY VACCINATED
YOU CAN RETURN TO MANY
ACTIVITIES SAFELY.
MOST OF THEM OUTDOORS ARE MASKED
AND CAN BEGIN TO GET BACK TO
NORMAL.
THE MORE PEOPLE WHO ARE
VACCINATED, THE MORE STEPS WE
CAN TAKE SPENDING TIME WITH
PEOPLE DOING THE THINGS WE LOVE
TO ENJOY.
I HOPE THIS MESSAGE IS
ENCOURAGING.
THIS SHOWS WHY WE ARE ASKING
EVERYONE TO ROLL UP THEIR
SLEEVES AND GET VACCINATED.
THE SCIENCE IS CLEAR.
THE COVID-19 VACCINES HAVE BEEN
THROUGH MANY TRANSPARENT,
RIGOROUS PROCESSES THAT HAVE
CONTINUED TO PROVE THEY ARE SAFE
AND EFFECTIVE.
IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY, PLEASE GET VACCINATED.
GET VACCINATED.
IN SOME COMMUNITIES YOU CAN FIND
WALKUPS OR ADVANCE APPOINTMENTS
OR WHERE APPOINTMENTS AREN’T
