Yosemite National Park has once again introduced mandatory masks following a spike in COVID-19 cases in the region, with multiple other parks and institutions also implementing such policies.

“Due to the high COVID-19 community level, mask-wearing is now required for all people when entering federal buildings and public transportation in Yosemite National Park, regardless of vaccination status,” the park said in an Instagram post. It has turned off comments on the post, with users only allowed to “like” the notification. Back in June, Yosemite had mandated masks for visitors.
