The CDC said Thursday that Americans who are fully vaccinated can go without masks or physical distancing in many cases, even when they are indoors or in large groups, paving the way for a full reopening of society. The move comes as a growing number have complained that they cannot do more even after being fully vaccinated and criticized the CDC for being overly cautious. More than 154 million Americans have had at least one shot and 117 million are fully vaccinated, about 35 percent of the population.
