Effective as of March 7, 2022, all individuals are no longer required to wear a face covering in indoor spaces and public or private transportation.
While Columbus is no longer under a mask mandate, the Columbus City Health Department still recommends face coverings for those who are unvaccinated, have an underlying condition or live with someone who does, recently tested positive for COVID-19, or are in a healthcare facility or other business that requires them.
Despite the rescission of Ordinance 2388-2021, masks are still required under federal order by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) across all transportation networks throughout the United States, including at airports, onboard commercial aircraft, on over-the-road buses, and on commuter buses and rail systems through at least April 18, 2022.
