    If I’m feeling sick, or my family is, I will wear one to work, the whole point of them is to minimize spread of disease.

    Indoors in public, all the time.

    I don’t want to catch COVID again if I can help it. It’s a shitty, dangerous virus.

    TBH, I don’t think most people understand that it’s not just a bad cold–it’s a virus that attacks your vascular system that also does some nasty respiratory stuff. The increased risks of heart attacks and strokes after even a mild infection are not great, and if you’re getting infected every year, you’re permanently carrying that elevated risk.

    Haven’t worn one since I got the vaccine. I was working full time the whole way through as a regional truck driver but didn’t catch it until January 2022. It was meh.

    I wore one when the air quality was bad from the forest fires, otherwise I don’t. Don’t have a problem putting one on again if Covid or some other virus got bad again. But since it is summer here, wearing a mask makes me sweat to death
