ALABAMA – According to the health officials, the city of Birmingham says the rule will end after Monday.

The change comes at a time when fewer patients are hospitalized statewide with the illness caused by COVID-19.

The rule began more than a year ago and was most recently extended in early April.

Mayor Woodfin says the end of the mask requirement is a sign that vaccinations were making a difference.

This story will be updated when new information is available.
