A few people are masking at my gym. Maybe 10 percent?

I am not risking exercising indoors yet. I did take an outdoors soul cycle class and half of us were wearing masks.

Still wear sometimes-living life dangerously. But yes, can now usually count number of mask wearers with a single hand.

I still wear a mask at the gym, I maybe see one other person with a mask. I've been fully vaccinated since January, but since I work at a Children's Hospital, it seems like a small thing for me to try to prevent being a carrier and infecting kids that can't be vaccinated.

Indoors at an exercise class seems like a pretty reasonable place to wear a mask if you still perceive a local covid risk. Lots of people still wear them in grocery stores etc. Outdoors seems entirely unnecessary, but an enclosed space with strangers heavy breathing for 30-60 minutes?

My daughter is still masking because I have cancer and because her BF’s parents are both immunocompromised.


Is she wearing an N95? Otherwise I don't get it--I thought masks (unless N95) only protect others...

at my studio, in-person classes are for vax only, so i haven't seen anyone choose to wear a mask yet.

Yikes. I trust the vaccine and have been vaccinated but live with someone who is not, making the risk of me getting a mild case of covid more problematic than it is for others. When the vaccine works, it’s still entirely possible to get a mild case.

Been attending gym & group classes in VA, for over a year now - always maskless. Never had covid.

Occasionally someone might wear a mask, but it's unusual these days.

At the place where I take classes, masks are only becoming optional this week. And yup, I plan to ditch the mask--have been waiting since I got my vax in March!

Are upper middle class people who can afford group exercise really that ignorant as to not be vaccinated? Most people I know are vaccinated and of course don't wear masks.

Since your not vaccinated you need to stay hoke.
