In reply to the discussion: Masks (POLL): when will you forego masks? [View all]Niagara
(7,683 posts)Weather permitting, I speed walk every evening. I do not wear a mask while outside exercising since no one is around me.
I still wear a mask in both indoor and outdoor public settings such at the grocery store or the local farmers market.
I still wear a mask for the following reasons: No vaccine is 100% effective. Covid vaccinations may not prevent a person from spreading the virus to others. For me, wearing a mask while being fully vaccinated is like doubling up on contraceptives. The mask hides my unwanted ladystache and I don't have to hot wax my upper lip all the time. I'm considered obese and diabetes runs rampant in my family. Also, Covid is a great excuse not to hang out with my MAGAt family members...I don't have to listen to their political bullshit tirades. Wearing a mask also makes the MAGAts upset and bent out of shape which is a massive bonus.
I don't know when I'll stop wearing a mask. It depends on my comfort level and right now I'm not comfortable not wearing a mask in public settings.
I currently have no job and no health insurance which would be an additional reason why I still continue to mask.
