Do not forget to enter your mask before heading to the airport. Transportation Safety Administration (TSA)recently announced that it extends the requirement of the face mask on public transport and transport centers until May 3rd. The mandate, put in place by the security guidelines and the emergency amendment, was put at the end of April 18, but this new decision will prolong it by at least 15 days.
This decision was made due to the increase in COVID cases.
According to the TSA, the decision to expand its mask mandate was made in accordance with disease control and prevention centers (CDC) in the light of COVID cases. "Since early April 2022, the 7-day moving average of Covid-19 has increased in the United States," TSA explained in a statement.

Much of the rise can be attributed to BA.2's growing spread, a subcap of Omicron. As of April 8, this variant is estimated at least 72% of the new CVIV cases in the country, in accordance with the CDC.
