Michigan to issue advisory encouraging masks indoors amid COVID-19 surge

Lansing — The Michigan Department of Heath and Human Services plans to issue a public health advisory ahead of Thanksgiving, recommending everyone older than 2 wear a mask at indoor gatherings regardless of their vaccination status.

The advisory, which is not a mandate, comes six days before the holiday amid surging infection numbers in the state. It will also encourage establishments to implement policies to ensure that all people entering, including employees, wear a mask, according to a news release.
