(22,305 posts)We have never stopped wearing ours, but mostly because of my wife's condition. I don't dare go out without it.

(13,138 posts)Got covid a day ago. They went to my uncles funeral in Virginia on the North Carolina border. They both were wearing N95's . They both are vaccinated and boosted all shots up to date..
South in red hat territory where people ditched thier masks so many more would get infected and die. I don't know what killed my uncle it could have been old age covid or both.
You can't pay me to be around people in the south right now even with a mask on.
They are dangerous . And so is thier breath.

(1,306 posts)Almost only the grocery store cashiers wear masks.
And the medical clinic had to re-institute mask handout persons to ensure everyone got masked up.

(13,138 posts)Maryland. Good thing my day program still requires masks,except when we eat lunch.
The tables and seats are distanced tho.
I still wear my mask but as soon as I get outside away from the store and people I take it off. Getting really sick of wearing it.
But I'd be way sicker if I caught covid.
