With the recent surge, talks of mask mandates, and other drastic measures to help contain the virus have been in talks in communities throughout Wyoming. Tuesday morning, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dr. John Fleming spoke with Wyoming News Now about his thoughts on a mask mandate in Wyoming. Dr. Fleming responded, “I certainly recommend mask use especially when there is considerable spread in the community. Certainly, throughout the Midwest, we are seeing an increase in cases." Dr. Fleming adds, Fortunately, the death rates have remained flat, we are seeing 3 per 100,00 deaths. of course, one death from COVID is one death too many. But, I think people in Wyoming and other states have learned better to live with this disease. As far as mandates for masks, I think that’s a case by case local community decision made by your leaders."
