Updated Masking Guidelines
The safety of our Veteran community and staff remains our top priority, and we must continue to take all necessary precautions to protect ourselves and each other.
In areas of high-risk, we must continue to wear masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19. We have made great strides in combating this virus, but it is essential that we remain vigilant and continue to follow recommended guidelines to keep ourselves and others safe.
I implore you to stay informed and continue to adhere to the guidelines set forth by the CDC and the VA. I appreciate your continued cooperation with all masking guidelines. Below is a localized summary of the updated masking guidelines set forth by the VHA Undersecretary for Health as they relate to all Cincinnati VA Medical Center Staff, Veterans who come to any one of Cincinnati VA-operated facilities, Visitors, VSOs, and Contractors.
