Mask updates

Just checking, anybody still wearing masks at work or in public? Required? Voluntarily?

I did last week when I had to go out because I was sick (tested neg) and just didn't want to give my head cold to others.

It had been so long since I'd been sick that I forgot what it was like.

If a business requests I do, or if the workers at check out, etc are wearing them, then I do. 

At work it is no longer required, just requested if you're grouped together. Again, if anyone else in my group wears one I do as well. 

Literally the most basic thing anyone could do and it blew up as some political and ideological hill to die on (no pun intended). Crazy...

If I go to the VA they are required.  Otherwise, no.

Medical  facilities  require  them, otherwise  no.

Actually I think the vaccination mandate was a bigger thing. I don't recall any medical professionals who didn't want the vaccination refusing to wear a mask. But this was just a general question.

Oh good point. I go to the Cleveland Clinic regularly for some stuff and I obviously wear it there

Same here also the medical providers vary as to how strict they enforce that once in the examination room.

I do think it's pretty silly to see a bunch of teenagers wearing them as they wander through the mall but to each his own I guess.

Half my plane had their masks off (Frontier)

pretty funny.  Almost half the terminal has the mask off also. (Tampa Bay)
