Biden: Travelers to decide whether to wear masks on airplanes

Atlanta, Apr 19 (EFE/EPA).- President Joe Biden on Tuesday said that travelers should be the ones to decide whether or not they will wear facemasks on airplanes, trains, buses and other forms of public transportation.

The president's remarks, which are a change from the stance his administration had maintained up until now, came after on Monday a Florida judge struck down the government's prior transportation mask mandate. (Camera: ERIK LESSER).
