[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What surprises me is how quickly people have turned against masks. I went to the Kennedy center recently and very few people were wearing masks. Sitting for 3 hours in a crowded poorly ventilated space during a surge, not speaking, not exercising — there’s almost no reason NOT to wear a mask. We were shocked so few people were wearing them. At this point, I’m not obsessive about the masks but I still wear them on crowds when it’s no real hardship to do so. [/quote] Because at this point if you’re still wearing a mask then it means you need to likely wear one for the rest of your life. It’s also obvious looking back that masking only did so much good. Covid spread like wildfire including in places where there was high mask usage. Anyone with common sense can figure out that the benefit isn’t there. [b]Also a lot of people were going along with the masking to be polite[/b]. Some of it was political. Now it’s been years and it’s a lot harder to go along with something so pointless. Not to mention people have traveled to other first world country where masking was stopped months (years?) ago. [/quote] Gosh! I was so late in the game to start wearing a mask. I remember reading posts here like "my mask protects you, your mask protects me" and "just wear the mask" and "mask up". I hesitated to wear one because I felt uncomfortable and anxious in a mask and, at the same time, seeing only a third of people's faces triggered anxiety and a feeling of not being safe. Eventually, I had no choice here in MoCo, so mask up, I did. I was similarly hesitant and nervous about the vaccines, but I came around on those, too. About a month after my second booster, I got covid. Worse than a cold, not as bad as the flu, but definitely something I am not interested in experiencing again. Now I'm anxious if I don't have a mask on, especially because 90% of my neck of the woods no longer masks. [/quote]
