According to the above report and the latest update from the CDC's official website, the guidance is that masks should still be worn by anyone two-years-old or above if they are not fully vaccinated.

With in-person learning a top priority, the CDC has given out extensive guidance on how both teachers and students can remain healthy and safe for this upcoming school year.

Louisiana state health advisor Dr. Joseph Kanter recently said that the delta variant has been responsible for a recent surge in COVID cases across the state.

Louisiana has approximately 35% of its residents fully vaccinated at this time.
