Masks are no longer required at the three main movie theatre chains in the United States for people who are fully vaccinated against the coronavirus, according to updated guidelines on Friday. "In accordance with CDC guidelines, masks are not required for guests who are fully vaccinated," AMC said on its website, referring to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "If you are not fully vaccinated, we ask that you continue to wear a mask throughout the theatre unless actively enjoying food or drinks." The changes for movie theatres come two weeks after the CDC said that fully vaccinated people need not wear masks in any setting. Movie studios and theatre chains last week launched a "big screen is back" campaign, previewing a summer filled with blockbusters including the new "Fast & Furious" movie and the superhero film "Black Widow."
