Six county executives in New York \u2014 Republicans and Democrats \u2014 publicly urged Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Sunday to adopt the CDC\u2019s guidance allowing vaccinated people to ditch their mask in most circumstances. <\/p>\n

\u201cNew York needs to follow the science<\/a>-backed guidance of the CDC,\u201d read the statement from Orange County\u2019s Steven M. Neuhaus, Rockland\u2019s Ed Day, Dutchess\u2019 Marc Molinaro, Suffolk\u2019s Steve Bellone, Putnam\u2019s Mary Ellen Odell and Pat Ryan of Ulster County.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we continue to see active cases, hospitalizations and deaths steadily dropping day by day and more people receiving vaccinations, the Governor should implement the CDC\u2019s common sense guidance.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gave\u00a0the green light\u00a0Thursday for fully vaccinated Americans to go mask-free inside and outdoors \u2014 but Cuomo has refused to sign off,\u00a0saying the state needs to\u00a0\u201creview\u201d the new guidelines.<\/p>\n

Nassau County Executive Laura Curran on Friday had urged Cuomo to follow the federal recommendations.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew York State should immedia<\/a>tely adopt the CDC guidance that those who are fully vaccinated against COVID no longer need to wear masks or physically distance, indoors or outdoors in almost all circumstances. The vaccine works and our residents need to return to normal life,\u201d said Curran, a Democrat who is running for re-election to a second term this fall.<\/p>\n

The conflicting stances from the feds and Albany has caused mass confusion in the Empire State, as businesses are forced to explain to irate vaccinated customers that they have to stay masked.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Cuomo said that state Health Commissioner Howard Zucker \u2014 the embattled official involved in the\u00a0alleged COVID-19 nursing home death toll cover-up\u00a0\u2014 will be tasked with reviewing the updated CDC guidance for the Empire State.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn New York, we have always relied on the facts and the science to guide us throughout the worst of this pandemic and in our successful reopening,\u201d Cuomo said Thursday, before then app<\/a>arently dismissing the science.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have received the newly revised guidance from the CDC regarding mask-wearing and social distancing for those with vaccinations and are reviewing them in consultation with Dr. Zucker and our partners and health experts in surrounding states.\u201d<\/p>\n

In response to a request for comment about the joint statement on Sunday, a rep for the Health Department said: \u201cWe continue to review the CDC guidance.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
