Are people still masking up at your work? Are you? Do you think people should be masking up to go to the pharmacy? If you're not masking up, why not? Real questions, not just trying to stir the pot I just wonder what it's like outside of where I live.

I'm of two minds about it, on the one hand it's a good idea to do whatever you can to protect yourself from an airborne illness regardless of anything else. On the other hand, I understand why it would be confusing or frustrating to get multiple different directions from their local, state and federal government about masking and that would put people off. I still wear one while I work, and if I'm in any space that is tightly enclosed or may be a space where immunocompromised people frequent.

We don't wear mask at our pharmacy. Everyone is pretty much vaccinated at this point. Some customers still wear them they are not mandated to do so.

Some people are and some aren't. There are very few that are. We are not required to wear masks at this point.

Nope. Nobody has work mask in Georgia since I moved here a year and a half ago. I only got covid once and believe it or not I actually was wearing a mask the whole time.

My company is still requiring masks, but only in the pharmacy and nowhere else in the building (we’re inside a huge big box store with tons of people passing through, including those that have active Covid infections). I personally think we need to switch to the mentality of masking to protect yourself if you choose to, meaning people that want to wear masks could choose an N95 or something designed to offer a high level of protection to the wearer, not surgical masks.

We are not required to wear masks. In my opinion masks are for actively sick people showing symptoms to not cough or sneeze on others. I believe that exposure to germs is good for the immune system.
