14. Until last month, everyone was wearing masks here, too.

They were required to enter any grocery, pharmacy, gas station, bank, convenience store - any business at all - and it was enforced. A man came into a gas station/convenience store - where I was waiting in line - with no mask just to peruse the newspaper rack at the entrance and was immediately called out by the guys behind the counter. Walmart had mask checkers at the one entrance. Stores had one-way aisles and six-foot distancing marks on the floors at every checkout. But those are rapidly disappearing now that we're "opening up" and masks are only required for the unvaccinated - the "honor system." Good luck with that. Can we possibly put the genie back in the bottle? I doubt it.
