'I feel good about it. I get to work out and not suffocate.' Wednesday is the first day since the county joined the rest of the Bay Area in relaxing indoor mask rules. And a booster shot will no longer be required for a large event like a concert or professional game. But masks are still recommended indoors.
SANTA CLARA COUNTY, Calif. -- Masks are now optional in Santa Clara County. The county joined the rest of the Bay Area Wednesday in relaxing the mask rules."I am happy about it. I feel good about it. I get to work out and not suffocate," said Daniel Gonzalez.The general manager says there has been a lot of anticipation among his members leading up to this day.
"They talk about it every day. They ask about it every day. They have been waiting for this day for a long time. We are seeing masks being thrown in the air like graduation hats because everybody has been so excited to take their masks off," said Dwayne Jones.The county health officer says masks are still recommended indoors, and there were still plenty of people working out and shopping at the grocery store in masks.
"It makes me feel more comfortable because I don't know other peoples' status, whether they are vaccinated or not. It makes me feel more at ease a bit. Plus, I haven't had a cold or flu in two years, so something is working," said San Jose resident Neil Tiwari as he headed in to a Whole Foods Market with a mask on.
