TRENTON - People fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in New Jersey are no longer required to wear a face mask in most indoor settings and do not have to maintain six feet of social distancing.

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy on Monday announced he would repeal the state's indoor mask mandate for fully vaccinated people on Friday to fall in line with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's updated guidance.

There will be certain settings that will still require masks to be worn, including healthcare facilities, long-term care homes, correctional facilities, and homeless shelters.

Masks will also be mandated still in childcare centers, youth summer camps, all preschool programs, and elementary and secondary schools.
