New York requires masks in child-care centers
All workers at child-care centers in New York now must wear face coverings under a plan announced by Gov. Kathy Hochul on Wednesday.
The Democratic governor said the requirement is effective “now” and applies to all staff and visitors at state-regulated child care centers.
Hochul cited the rise in COVID-19 cases among children and the lack of a vaccine for children under 12 years old.
