As cases of Coronavirus continue to soar, especially in the parts of the south and west, the nationwide chain as required all customers entering the store to put mask on, starting August 1. this isn't much of a change, as over eighty percent of Target stores in the United States already required masks anyway, according to CBS Albany.

Other big chains, such as Best Buy, Kohl's, Starbucks, as well as Walmart and Sam's Club have already given the mask order for all locations. Target officials, like other store owners, feel this will prevent cases of employees having to mandate the mask rule, and thus hopefully lead to less confrontations.
