A family is moving into the rental house next door.

A young couple with three children, probably 10, 7 and 5-ish. All boys.

They’ve had various friends and family members helping them with the heavy items. Various pick up trucks bringing essential furniture, etc. with several different drivers and passengers.

It’s great that they have people who will and can help them.

But I’ve seen not one single mask on any of them over the last week. We are in a hot spot, and this simply boggles my mind.

I'd stay away from them for a couple of weeks, to see what happens.

Do people just not listen? Our mayor gives a nightly update on COVID which includes the number of new cases, the number of deaths and the number of ICU beds in use. He begs every single night for everyone to wear a mask.

Maybe a language barrier, hardly anyone gets the newspaper anymore, or maybe they don't care to watch the news.

There is little doubt there are aware of Covid & mask protocols; they just DGAF.

Steer clear.

.... if they can't be bothered to wear masks while moving, then there is no way they bothered to quarantine first.

Stay away for a while and observe further how they act.
