Marin schools institute temporary mask mandates after uptick in Covid cases
Four elementary schools in Marin County have temporarily reinstated indoor mask mandates in some classrooms after upticks in Covid-19 cases, the Marin Independent Journal reported.
The mandates are only for the classes where small clusters of Covid-19 cases have been reported, and not for entire schools, said Matt Willis, the county’s public health officer.
“We haven’t heard of any schools reinstating a full indoor mask mandate, where they’re saying everyone has to wear a mask,” Willis told the newspaper, adding that there have been no clusters of Covid-19 cases reported at middle or high schools in the county.
