Vax proof/test mandate ends: Some big news coming out of New Orleans City Hall today as well. The city is relaxing its vaccine-or-show-a-negative COVID test mandate. It marks a “critical and welcome milestone,” Mayor LaToya Cantrell says. Restaurants, our food guy Ian McNulty reports, are pretty stoked about not having to ask for proof anymore.
