I’ve been working from home for 10 years. The COVID break my daughter had was the first time I can remember NOT getting a Cold since literally ever. I’m masking more when I travel for work and I look forward to when more of us realize the benefits.
The first year of the pandemic was the first year in my entire life when I wasn’t repeatedly sick. In fact, I didn’t get sick at all. Yeah, I still wear masks and distance myself from people as much as is reasonably possible.
They’re actually really great if you walk outside alot, they can help protect your face from cold weather. I keep one in my pocket and just bust it out whenever the temperature gets too bad when I walk in the morning.
Awesome for [email protected]
This is exactly my primary use for them too. Although I’m gonna start using a ski buff, see if that’s even better.
They’re very helpful at reducing chapped lips.
Which is as it should be. There is an obvious level of responsibility that any adult can and should exercise. I don’t disagree that the government shouldn’t mandate this, in fact I believe they shouldn’t have to.
I wear one when I’m sick and must be in public. It’s really not that big of a deal.
Thank you for not breathing flu or covid droplets all over everyone.
My pleasure! I like keeping others as safe as I can. It’s one of the few positives from the pandemic. I’m a lot more aware of diseases now.
all these visitors flying in with their germs and shopping in crowds, yeah you bet im masking up
It’s the sick people that are masking, right? … Right?
My father is severely immunocompromised (double lung transplant less than a year ago), so I wear a mask when travelling home to see him to provide an extra level of assurance I won’t be bringing anything (not even just COVID) home to him.
Yes, for masks to be most effective sick or potentially sick people should be masking, but often they don’t. That was my point.
No. I was sick last week and forgot. Even had one in my purse, still forgot.
EDIT: Don’t care about the downvotes, but what message do you think you’re sending to those of us being honest? Think you’re helping?
🤨
To my disappointment, the dog isn’t wearing a mask.
I guess it was too much to hope that the culture would change. Americans are too stubborn for that.
News?
It’s an easy way to reduce exposure while not eliminating it so that your immune system can still keep up with the latest fads.
