And that's pretty easy. Folks just need to cover their mouths *and* noses.
Biden has said that he thinks that mask mandates in public places--other
than Federal property--is probably unconstitutional, meaning that he is
pretty certain that the current US Supreme Court would find it unconstitutional.
I agree, but what is *not* unconstitutional is to require workplaces that
fall under the purview of OSHA to provide safe workplaces, which could
include mandating Covid hygiene for employees of those businesses.

Mask mandates at the State level are subject to State regulations, and States
can decide whether to require masks, or to allow or forbid local regulations
addressing masking or any other public health measures. If State supreme
courts rule that those things are constitutional or unconstitutional, Federal
courts would defer to the States.

OSHA was hamstrung by Trump. It need not be under a Biden Administration.
