Back on January 25, the Montgomery County Council voted unanimously for a new public health order, which keeps the current indoor mask mandate in place until February 21 at 11:59pm. That mandate will automatically terminate if there is no further action by the Board of Health.

During todays media briefing, council President Gabe Albornoz said, “it’s appropriate for us to be able to move forward with eliminating the mask mandate after the 21st. Especially if the numbers continue to go down.”
