FILE - Travelers walk through Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on Friday, April 1, 2022 in Seattle. On Monday, April 18, 2022, a federal judge in Florida voided the national mask mandate covering airplanes and other public transportation saying it exceeded the authority of U.S. health officials.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — A federal judge in Florida has voided the national mask mandate covering airplanes and other public transportation as exceeding the authority of U.S. health officials in theThe decision Monday by U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle in Tampa, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, also said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention improperly failed to justify its decision and did not follow proper rulemaking.
Then why does the government have the authority to require us to wear a seatbelt, to not smoke in public places or drive intoxicated.
I,for one, will NOT abandon my mask! Let those fools spew their molecules , infect each other ! Not me!!! I am old but also wise.
A federal judge appointed by Donald Trump. Her job is a political one and not in the interest of the public. Common sense here folks…
Relax people. You can still wear one if YOU want to. This is embarrassing for the president, admin, and CDC.
Damn. I had fin mastered the art of making a small cup of coffee and bag of pretzels last 3 hours.
there is not one particle surgical mask manufacturer that states that the masks will stop a virus - not one. The TGA (FDA) in Australia tested them and said NA - not applicable as the DONT work against a virus
No worries! Wear your mask if you like, you trust it don’t you?! You will be 100% protected by your own mask!, I don’t understand peoples anguish over others not wearing 1 if they have their own on.
Can another federal judge override this one?
Mask are not the problem! Ignorance is the problem !! Jeopardizing family, friends, neighbors is ignorant, stupid, deplorable !!
When are we going to stop letting Floridians dictate the way the rest of the country nust be?
Mizelle was appointed to the federal court in late 2020 by then-President Donald Trump. She had been rated 'not qualified' by the American Bar Association for 'the short time she has actually practiced law and her lack of meaningful trial experience.' Imagine that.
Does this make it official as of now? I have a flight in 3 days, I’m triple vaxxed & I’m sick of wearing it during the duration of my flight. It’s pointless; most people are not wearing the masks properly anyway & wearing surgical masks which hardly do anything (unlike N95’s).
This is horrible we only needed a few more years to flatten the curve.
Meanwhile in Florida, COVID cases have TRIPLED today. maskmandate
So, what I’m hearing is most of the passengers getting permanently banned from airlines are from Florida🤔
I’m just waiting on that variant that make people drop dead!
Yeh, the governor of a state has NO authority regarding aviation regulations!!!
Good.
Clothing optional flying
Two things this can be appeal and the airlines can make you have to mask to fly on there aircraft. Airlines can have there own rules on wearing a mask it doesn't take the government to mandate something for a business to have there own set of rules.
ALRIGHT!!
That's idiotic.
This is what the 'F' is wrong with our country.
But, the ruling will be over turned by a real judge
I have no problem with this. When COVID is tracked to travel and spreads, make his ass pay the bill. No one single Government dollar. COVID MaskMandate seethefaces Follow
Business I love my state.
Finally a judge with some sense. Unelected bureaucrats shouldn’t be able to take away our right to breathe. Let congress pass legislation if they want to force masking on 350,000,000 people in an election year. Good luck getting the votes.
God every FUCKING time we get close to getting this shit under control, someone pulls some stupid ass move and does something like this. I’m so goddamned tired of public health being used to score cheap political points this doesn’t make any sense I need to start screaming.
Does this include UBER Public transportation

So I fly tomorrow. What does this mean to me? If I don't fly to Florida I have to wear a mask? So confusing.
Fine. I'm not planning any trips until the germ farmers kill each other off.
my partner traveled for work, having covid. Isolated in a hotel, still + w/symptoms. Flying home tomorrow, always potentially spreading to thousands of others, now w/bozos who won't wear a mask. this is how waves start, how viruses mutate and become more vax resistant. smh.
The ignorance of the people who get to enforce or lift mandates astounds me. What a fool this judge is; what a risk to public safety in a state where way too many ignorant people reside.
