Masks are not required inside a solitary, enclosed workspace such as office. Masks may be removed in restaurants and bars when individuals are actively eating or drinking but must be worn at all times otherwise. When in a public outdoor space or when using public transportation, taxis or ride-sharing services individuals are required to wear a mask covering the nose and mouth (§ 3.a.i.2)
