16 US states are easing and lockdown measures
Two days ago, Texas announced the end of the general obligation to wear masks and the reopening of all commercial activities at 100%, but the "Lone Star State" was not completely alone. Other states are following his lead in a different lean way.
For example, the new governor of Montata has canceled the obligation of masks in his state:

In total, 16 states have lifted the obligation of masks at the state level, even if some cities have kept it, and others, such as Kansas, have only a theoretical and not applied obligation.
In the US there are rural states, with a very low population density, and vaccination is continuing at a very accelerated pace. They are not the EU, they have secured the vaccines in time. Slowly they return to normal, also because they want to go back.
