COVID Guidelines For Classes

Masks now optional in County Facilities


Effective February 28, 2022, Fairfax County will no longer require masks for employees and the public in county government facilities, except in specific locations, such as where health or medical services are provided.

This decision is based on updated guidance issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Feb. 25 that includes three metrics for determining COVID-19 community levels – hospital bed use, hospital admissions and the total number of new COVID-19 cases in an area.

According to these new metrics, Fairfax County’s current community level is low.

Regardless of the COVID-19 community level, masking and social distancing may still be used for personal risk mitigation. The CDC recommends that individuals at high risk of complications from COVID-19 consider taking additional precautions. Those with symptoms or exposure should still get tested.
