I still wear a mask in public, indoor spaces, as a matter of ensuring that people are comfortable around me. Regardless of my vaccination status, if I am masked, then I am making myself less of a threat, and indicating that I'm trustworthy - the dreaded virtue signaling that everyone hates. Even if I'm unvaccinated, if I'm masked, then people can trust that I am taking them seriously and keeping their safety in mind. If I'm unmasked, then I'm a total wildcard. It could indicate that I'm a nice person who's vaccinated, or it could indicate that I'm an asshole who's putting them at risk. There's no way to know, and because our society is so fucked up, there'll never be a way to know. I will only stop wearing a mask once covid cases in my area have dropped to negligible levels - probably under 1 in 100,000 daily, which we're not at all close to yet. The pandemic is still very much ongoing and numbers are quite high.
