I am not and to be honest, when I was on the subway this weekend, a lot of people aren’t. I think moving forward we need to normalize mask wearing. That way when folks are sick in the future but need to run to Duane Reade to pickup their prescription, they feel comfortable wearing a mask.
Agreed they are having an extremely slow vaccination campaign. However for a democracy of 125M with only 15K COVID deaths so far, they must be doing something right.
I’ve been surprised by how many people are wearing them outside in not crowded areas. Like in the park or alone on the streets. Not trying to start debates or pass judgment, I want people to feel safe. But things are definitely changing again very quickly.
The more masking we do, the faster we’ll go back to normal
A1 if we stop the spread, we wont need immunity
Good. How does that affect you in a negative way?
But what if wearing masks is normalized and we move forward with a societal change?
Why do you care if they choose to wear a mask? Is it offending you?
Author rather have social pressure to not wear a mask during a global pandemic

When I see these people, I have a bridge I want to sell them.

I’m fine with masking forever (and washing hands frequently), the world will be a healthier place.
You do you.
I’m not masking unless absolutely required … airport for example, but it is so lax in the club anyway. You have a choice.

Our entire building mandated it
How many are you wearing ?
Never once have I ever seen giving government this much control end up in a good way.
NYC is about to become the next Los Angeles.
Because people’s personal choices on how to protect themselves during a 100 year pandemic is “giving government… control” 🙄
