The variant is called EG.5 and is a descendant of Omicron.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that EG.5 accounted for roughly 17.3 per cent β€” or one in six β€” of new COVID-19 cases in the U.S. in the past two weeks.

I only wear masks when I'm the one who's sick so I don't infect everyone else. And maybe at the hospital or clinic since I'll be in the same room as other sick people or because I'm the one who's sick.

Otherwise, unless you're immuno compromised, I don't see the point and wearing a mask all the time might be too much.
