Is it time to take the masks off?
"Not yet. I think we're getting closer and closer to that, but it's not time to stop the masks yet," said Dr. Don Yealy of UPMC, speaking with Marty Griffin on NewsRadio KDKA about the importance of wearing masks and getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

He said those who say they'll never get the shot are playing a dangerous game.
"You're playing roulette with your health and your life," said Yealy. "Why would you take that chance when there's a simple, effective and incredibly safe - no matter what you've heard - vaccine or set of vaccines available to you?"
Dr. Yealy says if you happen to get sick, get tested and try to get the therapy called Monoclonal antibodies, which will help your body respond to the infection.
