UTICA, N.Y. — Mohawk Valley Health System (MVHS) has dropped universal masking requirements at all of its locations now that COVID-19 transmission rates have dropped.
Masks are still required for those who have symptoms of a respiratory infection, had close contact within 10 days with someone who has COVID-19, had a higher-risk exposure to someone with COVID-19, reside or work in an area of a facility experiencing an outbreak, and those who were granted a medical exemption from vaccination and/or have not received a flu vaccine.
Individuals may also choose to wear a mask based on their personal preferences.
