With the new CDC mask regulations, outdoors only, no crowds, if you are vaccinated should produce the usual results. Everyone will cease wearing masks.
That not a very clear statement and sounds like masks are required outdoors only.
Here's a description with a lot more words.
"If you are fully vaccinated and want to attend a small outdoor gathering with people who are vaccinated and unvaccinated, or dine at an outdoor restaurant with friends from multiple households, the science shows if you are vaccinated, you can do so safely unmasked," CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said during a virtual White House briefing on Tuesday.
"Generally, for vaccinated people, outdoor activities without a mask are safe. However, we continue to recommend masking in crowded outdoor settings and venues, such as packed stadiums and concerts where there is decreased ability to maintain physical distance and where many unvaccinated people may also be present," Walensky said. "We will continue to recommend this until widespread vaccination is achieved."

Thanks. I didn't understand SteveG's statement either. Written in haste perhaps?
