Should you be wearing a mask again? Here’s a map of the Covid hot spots subject to the CDC’s new guidance...

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended Tuesday that fully vaccinated Americans start wearing masks indoors again in places with high Covid-19 transmission rates as nationwide infection levels are once again on the rise.

CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky told reporters Tuesday that masks should be worn in public, indoor settings by everyone, including fully vaccinated people, in areas “with substantial and high transmission.”

But what exactly is “high” or “substantial” transmission, and where are the areas the CDC is concerned about?

The agency uses two measures to group U.S. counties into four levels of community transmission: the number of new cases per 100,000 residents and the percent of Covid tests that are positive over the past week.
