Mask On. Governor Hochul’s recent discontinuation of the mask mandate for NY State healthcare facilities appears to signal a continued return to normal. UR Medicine and Rochester Regional Health have opted to continue requiring masks in their facilities pending further review.
We are also going to continue to require masks in the office due to the large numbers of influenza, RSV and other respiratory illnesses that we still see. We plan to reevaluate this requirement later this spring when the case numbers are down.
Thank you for your understanding.
