Fox News
New York City public school students will be allowed to remove their masks outside starting next week but must keep them on indoors for now, Schools Chancellor David Banks said Friday.
"I am so pleased that we are able to make this exciting announcement and safely allow students and staff to remove their masks when outdoors at NYC public schools," Banks said in a news release.
The move comes as COVID-19 infections in New York continue to decline after the emergence of the omicron variant fueled a December-January spike.
