The point of the mask is to keep it from spreading. If you unknowingly have the virus and are not wearing a mask, there's a higher chance you're getting others sick. So the percentage doesn't matter.

Why did you ask me a question if you just wanted to argue the answer?

I live in an area where Wendy Bell is like a Messiah. Where masks are the exception. Not the norm. Where they post signs not to come in without a mask at restaurants and bars and every single patron is maskless.

If I got the virus, it is because someone else who didn't have a mask gave it to me by not wearing it themselves. Thus, they have given it to those around me as well. I see little reason to worry about protecting others from infection who have no worries about spreading it to me or getting it themselves. When people were wearing them, I wore them everywhere (not that I really even go anywhere anyways). I was one of the only ones at my place of work who wore them. Once we went green. Relatively everyone shed them at once and our workplace even placed guidance telling us it was allowable to shed them. I only probably say 80% don't wear them because I am biased some towards closer to the yellow phase as again I don't go out much in public. It very well could be even higher by this point. I only know of a couple of people who wear them.

Of the couple who whine about wearing masks and following guidelines on my Facebook are themselves hypocrites anyways who broke lockdowns when it was convenient for them. Posted pictures getting fucked up at parties maskless while now crying to wear them now. The girl crying on Facebook to shutdown our T-ball and baseball leagues was none other than a girl who was "over the virus and gonna live her life" when it was her birthday "week" and was partying it up nonstop.

If everyone wears masks again then in the rare time I go out, I will wear them again.

The only time I have worn a mask outside has been when I went to the DMV a few days ago. The other 3 times this month I was in public I chose not to. At 5 Guys where absolutely 0 wore masks and people even sat in cordoned off tables, Walmart once, and at a bar I went to where not a single person had a mask on.

If it becomes a law, I will abide by it. While it remains a guideline that no one follows, I am not concerned about it.

As far as I am concerned, the virus is not containable without unrealistic responses (lockdowns) until a vaccine happens. Our goal is mitigation, not eradication, for that is unattainable. I live in an area with relatively no cases, in an area where no one cares about the guidelines.
