Former White House chief medical adviser Anthony Fauci said Sunday that it’s likely that no federal mandates will be implemented for masks, but he suggested that recommendations may be given.
“I can see that if we get a significant uptick in cases that you may see the recommendation that masks be used under certain circumstances and indoor crowded settings, but I don’t see there'd be certainly not federal mandates,” he told ABC News on Sunday morning, adding he would be “extremely surprised.”
