Folks are going to have strong feelings about this. For some, this is a relief and for others, it will be scary. Some will choose to shed their masks and some will choose to keep wearing them. Here at MKG Madison, we will NOT be requiring face coverings, but we will encourage and welcome all who choose to continue to wear them. Please, just love each other no matter choices are made.

The expiration of the current emergency order doesn’t mean that COVID has magically disappeared. It just means that COVID is less of a threat than it has been because we have the capacity and ability to fight it off in its current condition. So, that means that we still have to be use caution. So, we will continue to observe and follow the current CDC guidelines.

Here is the short version of the current Official CDC guidelines:

  • Stay home for 5 days.
  • If you have no symptoms or your symptoms are resolving after 5 days, you can leave your house.
  • Continue to wear a mask around others for 5 additional days.

  • Have been boosted
  • Completed the primary series of Pfizer or Moderna vaccine within the last 6 months
  • Completed the primary series of J&J vaccine within the last 2 months

  • Wear a mask around others for 10 days.
  • Test on day 5, if possible.
  • If you develop symptoms get a test and stay home.
