Fort Campbell has updated its mask policy for fully vaccinated personnel.
Public Affairs staff with the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) announced Monday morning that effective immediately, vaccinated individuals are exempt from wearing a mask indoors and outdoors at Fort Campbell, with a few exceptions.
They say masks are still required, irrespective of vaccine status, at the following facilities on the Army base:
a. all Military Treatment Facilities (MTF), to include Blanchfield Army Community Hospital, health clinics, and dental clinics;
b. COVID-19 vaccination and testing sites;
c. all DoDEA facilities; and
d. all child development centers, school-age centers, and teen centers.
In concert with the new Department of Defense policy for wearing masks, Army officials say personnel who are fully vaccinated must continue to follow all applicable DoD mask guidance.
For unvaccinated soldiers, officials say all soldiers, DoD personnel, and dependents, regardless of vaccination status, will continue to abide by state and local regulations, including local business and workplace guidance.
Commanding General Major General JP McGee says Fort Campbell and the 101st Airborne Division are committed to ensuring the health and safety of their soldiers, army civilians, family members, and local community, and will continue to take prudent measures to stop the spread of COVID-19 as they continually assess their COVID policies.
