Both Jefferson and St. Tammany parish leaders says they will be following Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards' guidelines for mask policy. Jefferson Parish said masks will still be required in parish government buildings.
St. Tammany Parish President Mike Cooper told WWL-TV that people who are more comfortable wearing masks should continue to do so.
New Orleans city officials say its current pandemic guidelines, including the mask mandate, remain in effect while they review the changes announced at the federal and state levels. City officials say they will have an announcement later this week.
