Wegmans ‘strongly’ encouraging customers wear masks
Rochester, New York — On Tuesday Wegmans updated its masking policy after the changing guidance from the Centers for Disease Control as well as state and local governments.
According to their announcement, all customers regardless of vaccination status will be strongly encouraged to wear masks while shopping. All employees will be required to wear masks.
