“#Costco will require all shoppers to cover faces, ending exemption<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Costco will soon require all shoppers to cover their faces in its stores \u2014 even those who say they can\u2019t wear masks for medical reasons.<\/p>\n

The wholesale chain says anyone with a medical condition that prevents them from wearing a standard face mask will have to don a face shield while they shop.<\/p>\n

Costco had previously allowed a medical exemption to the mask mandate it imposed in May, but the company reversed course amid a record-setting surge in coronavirus infections across the US. Children younger than 2 can still go mask-free under the tweaked policy, which takes effect Nov. 16.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis updated policy may seem inconvenient to some, however we believe the added safety is worth any inconvenience,\u201d Costco CEO Craig Jelinek said in a note to shoppers<\/a> dated Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Costco provoked outrage from some customers when it started requiring masks, which are considered essential to slowing the spread of COVID-19. The move reportedly led to boycott threats from some Costco members, who pay an annual fee to shop there.<\/p>\n

But other big retail chains including Walmart, Target and CVS have followed suit and rolled out their own mask mandates. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says<\/a> anyone older than 2 should wear a mask when out in public and when around people who don\u2019t live in their household.\n <\/div>\n
