“Ohio State University updated its mask protocols last week to enhance the health and safety of the campus community and to reflect updated guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Students, faculty, staff, and visitors to all Ohio State campuses and medical facilities are required to wear masks indoors, regardless of vaccination status. Masks are required outdoors for unvaccinated individuals when they cannot maintain physical distancing. Vaccinated people are not required to mask outdoors.”
As for football games, masks will be required in all interior public spaces, which include elevators, restrooms, and the press box. Masks will not be required for outdoor spaces, which include the gates to get into the Horseshoe, concession stands, and the seating bowl.
For people looking to take public transportation to a game, masks will continue to be required for all public transportation, including the game-day shuttles.
