On Monday, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser announced that the jurisdiction’s indoor event coronavirus vaccine mandate will be lifted today, Feb. 15, 2022.

In addition, D.C.’s mask mandate will end on Mar. 1. This is because of declining cases in the Washington area. Private businesses still can have a vaccine and/or mask mandate for guests and/or workers.

In response to the measures, Monumental Sports & Entertainment announced that they will end the vaccine mandate today and the mask mandate on Mar. 1 for most events and seat locations. The exception is for Wizards seat holders that are deemed to be close to the players, like courtside seats.
