Does it matter? I don't know the answer to the question, but unless we have a health condition that makes it difficult, wouldn't we just keep the thing on?
NOPE! I will only wear a mask to enter a store or medical facility, because I need what they have in terms of product or service and it is the only way they will let you inside >>> SUBMIT! Other than that, no masks. I simply don't care and I will not do it.
I can't tell you how many idiotic situations (From my perspective / point of view / or what I think is right or wrong.) I have observed, but here are some:
A person in an automobile, driving alone, windows up and their mask on.
A person outside exercising, early in the morning, not another soul in sight (I was driving by.) wearing their mask.
Here are two favorites:
A man in a store with two children about 5 or 6 years old, all three of them completely alone in an aisle, all masked up, all gloved up, all face shielded. One of the children did what a child does, went into the lower rack area of a product display to explore. The man went ballistic ranting and raving "You are going to expose yourself, you are going to get the virus." That ought to psychologically shape a young person during their formative years.
Two grown men (40's to 60's more or less.) shopping in another store, both in their Corona Virus 19 gear from head to toe. One steps in from of the other to select a product off the shelf and the other threatens to beat him up if he does that to him again. Now this one makes no sense to me??? The angered person is threatening to get up close and personal to the other person for getting too close to him? What the heck???
I find this to be foolishness.
Now don't mis understand me, I am not breathing in people's faces or trying to get up close and personal. Far from it actually. But it seems to me this has gotten to the point of silliness. There is only so far I am prepared to go. I'd rather die than live in absolute fear.
It's the darn flu by another name. People die from the flu every year. And it doesn't seem like it is ever going out of style.
Most people would have a great chance of living healthy lives if they simply took care of themselves and didn't abuse their bodies. But in lieu of it all, they are making themselves more susceptible to dying from this plague. (I say that in jest as it is simply the flu.)
I invite Pensador and his legion to attack me. (That guy was so silly and fearful he lost his wife over it!)
