Airports and planes went maskless for the first time in two years the same day that Philadelphia reinstated its indoor mask mandate. A federal judge in Florida struck down a request to extend the deadline for the mandate by two weeks, calling it "unlawful." All of this is happening as more than 30 states report a rise in cases.
