MIAMI (WSVN) - Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez announced two important changes regarding the county’s mask requirement.
In an amendment to Emergency Order 20-20, announced Monday, the mayor said facial coverings are no longer required for anyone who is outside, as long as they are standing 10 feet or more apart from another person.
It also clarifies when athletes in organized team sports activities must wear masks, such as when they're on the sidelines. Those engaged in strenuous exercise outdoors are exempt as well. Click here to read the order that goes into effect Oct. 6th: https://t.co/pkygrYmexN
