The health screening elements will follow guidance from NYSDOH and CDC guidance, if available. 4. Face Coverings: When in use, face coverings must cover the nose and mouth, and fit snugly, but comfortably, against the face. The face covering itself must not create a hazard (e.g., have features that could get caught in machinery or cause severe fogging of eyewear).
