Current Events > Do you still wear a facemask?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Do you wear it even if an establishment says it's required?

Hell no

no

according to ce that makes me alt-right

I always forget them. So, only if I find one on the ground.

Only if it's required. Otherwise, hell no.

Even the hospitals where I work finally, finally no longer require them. Get vaccinated and get over it.

I usually keep one in my bag or coat pocket just in case, but I haven't worn it for a while.

I only wear my mask on the train, otherwise I stand further away from people indoors. Dont wear a mask outdoors.

yes indeed. but i like my masks.

If its required, sure But theres not many places (in any) where I live that its required Though, I do see plenty around And thats fine Though, Im not big on talking to people when they are wearing them since it can be hard to get a read on them

only when I fight crime at night

I do not. The local urgent care clinic was the last place around that required them, but even they stopped requiring them recently.

Yeah I'm wearing one as we speak and my family does too

Didnt that stop being a thing the moment Biden did that press conference where he took off mask and said if you are vaccinated you dont need to wear a mask. From that point on in like May 2021 it became accepted to not wear them.

Pretty regularly, as I work in (the administrative wing of) a hospital.

may 2021?! i still had to wear them on public transportation just a few months ago

In hospitals, airports and planes only.

Everyday

Of course I do.

I wear one all the time, even when I'm walking alone or driving alone.

Only at the hospital.

if it's cold out, or i'm feeling a little under the weather, or flu / new covid strain season is peaking, or i forgot my teeth. Or if i'm buying sex toys.

But as a general rule, no.

Companies themselves can still make rules

If somewhere asks me to, I will. When I'm at work and respiratory illnesses are / have been going around (covid or otherwise), or if I've had those kind of symptoms myself recently, I will. Otherwise, I don't anymore.

Only at places with a waiting room like the dentist or doctor's.

edit: I would for public tranportation but I havent used that in recent years.

I wear one most of the time when I'm indoors: at work, in the grocery store, on the bus, etc.

I don't wear a mask outside

Ewww.

Only at hospitals or if Ive been directly exposed be someone who is positive

Only if required / feeling ill.

Still have to for work

Nah, I should again tho after isolation. I finally caught COVID and I don't even know how. Everyone I've been around tested negative.

I haven't in over 2 years.

Only when deeding

Naw. I probably should, but I'm vaxxed and boosted and no one is really wearing masks either so I don't see much of a point

Yes, with the exception being if I'm only around people that I know for a fact are vaccinated + boosted + not currently sick.

Only if I'm required to, or if I'm feeling sick.

Yes because how gross people are. Coughing near you, sneezing near ya. I haven't gotten sick wearing a mask.

If it's required yes. Otherwise, I've stopped.

The mask is supposed to protect other people from you if you're sick, not the other way around.

Yes. I just got over a bout with Cancer and had to go through Chemo, so I'm not taking any risks even if its for naught. Also wear a C-PAP machine mask if that counts lol. Before I had that machine I might get 1/2 hr sleep a night. Now I get at least 6 hours. Huge change to my mood and personality.

only when i absolutely positively have to leave the house for some reason while sick

and while at the airport or on a plane

Sure, in shopping centres and on public transport. Dont care about myself, but have vulnerable people in my family.

i wear one if i know that the places i'm going require one, or if i'm feeling unwell.

In public, no... but for my work, I have a neck cover which is basically a facemask if I lift it up my head.

I do out of habit but I'm slowly starting to become more lax with it.

Havent since some face mask engineer told me it was trash

Then I got a respirator but I looked like HUNK which was more deadly to me than COVID

Not outdoors but indoors, yes.

No but if someone looks like they might be sick I dont kiss them
