STATEWIDE | INDOOR FACE COVERING REQUIREMENT
(July 7, 2020) All West Virginians age 9 and older are required to wear a face covering at all indoor public places where six feet of social distancing cannot be maintained. For children ages 2 years old through 8 years old, face coverings are not required. However, it is recommended that parents or guardians use their best judgment as to when to assist their children, ages 2 through 8, with wearing a face covering. Under Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance, children younger than 2 years old, anyone who has trouble breathing, and anyone who is unconscious, incapacitated, or otherwise unable to remove the face covering without assistance should not wear face coverings and are exempt from the face covering requirement. Face shields are an acceptable substitute for those with physical conditions that may cause them to be unable to properly wear a face covering.​
As of July 8, 2020, all guidance documents have been updated to reflect Governor Justice’s Statewide Indoor Face Covering Requirement​.​
