This new mandate means all schools and day cares in the city must also follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>The move means the city didn&#8217;t even have two months without indoor masking requirements. The city had given the &#8220;all clear&#8221; and dropped its previous mask mandate on March 2.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"WatchLiveRightRail-inline WatchLiveRightRail-container\" id=\"RegularArticle-WatchLiveRightRail-7\" data-test=\"watchLiveRightRail-4\" data-analytics=\"RegularArticle-watchLiveRightRail-7-4\">\n<div class=\"WatchLiveRightRail-contents\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/live-tv\/\" class=\"WatchLiveRightRail-wlButton\">WATCH LIVE<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"denied:data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMTgiIGhlaWdodD0iMTgiIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAxOCAxOCIgZmlsbD0ibm9uZSIgeG1sbnM9Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzIwMDAvc3ZnIj4KPHBhdGggZD0iTTYuOTU5OTYgNi4xMjAwM0wxMS43NiA5LjAwMDAzTDYuOTU5OTYgMTEuODhWNi4xMjAwM1oiIGZpbGw9IndoaXRlIi8+CjxwYXRoIGZpbGwtcnVsZT0iZXZlbm9kZCIgY2xpcC1ydWxlPSJldmVub2RkIiBkPSJNOC41NiAwLjQ0MDAwMkMzLjgzMjQ0IDAuNDQwMDAyIDAgNC4yNzI0NSAwIDlDMCAxMy43Mjc2IDMuODMyNDQgMTcuNTYgOC41NiAxNy41NkMxMy4yODc2IDE3LjU2IDE3LjEyIDEzLjcyNzYgMTcuMTIgOUMxNy4xMiA0LjI3MjQ1IDEzLjI4NzYgMC40NDAwMDIgOC41NiAwLjQ0MDAwMlpNMS4xMiA5QzEuMTIgNC44OTEgNC40NTEgMS41NiA4LjU2IDEuNTZDMTIuNjY5IDEuNTYgMTYgNC44OTEgMTYgOUMxNiAxMy4xMDkgMTIuNjY5IDE2LjQ0IDguNTYgMTYuNDRDNC40NTEgMTYuNDQgMS4xMiAxMy4xMDkgMS4xMiA5WiIgZmlsbD0id2hpdGUiLz4KPC9zdmc+Cg==\" class=\"WatchLiveRightRail-logo\" alt=\"logo\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/live-tv\/\" class=\"WatchLiveRightRail-wlButtonMobile\">WATCH IN THE APP<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"PageBuilder-col-9 PageBuilder-col PageBuilder-article\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"PageBuilder-col-12 PageBuilder-col PageBuilder-article\">\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A shopper wearing a protective mask as a precaution against the spread of the coronavirus selects fruit at the Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":498,"featured_media":1888529,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1432179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1432179","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/498"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1432179"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1432179\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1888529"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1432179"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1432179"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1432179"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
