I'm fairly sure the mask mandate for hospitals is still there. And if it isn't, I would be very shocked if any hospital in DC didn't independently have their own mask mandate. The one I work at still requires masks, and even every doctor's office I've been in lately still requires them.

CDC dropped the mask mandate in healthcare settings last fall but left it up to individual health entities. Most, especially with those treating high-risk populations left them in place.

Yes, but DC Health can set its own guidelines.

From trying to navigate DC Health's website, there hasn't been an update on their healthcare facility mask guidelines since 2021?
