No. It’s requested. Except Walmart has signs that say it is mandatory-which I just shrug and tell them no thanks, I need oxygen or something. And they say ok. Gradually most people are not wearing them.
At the ER, they asked if we would like a mask, and we said not really, so they didn’t require it. Local Dr. depends on which office.
I make it a point to go to grocery where it’s not required and ask the cashier to tell their management that’s why I’m shopping there. There’s a few items that are only available at Walmart.
We have Pubbie Governor, and Pubbie legislature. Local yokels are often Democrats, but are socially conservative and all love to hunt. So we aren’t as bad off as many when it comes to tyrannical dictates.
We supposedly have a pubbie governor where I live, but masks are mandatory and now and until he is dragged kicking and screaming from office.
I just drove from my KY home to seattle and back. Seven total days on the road. I opened countless doors that said “masks required”, some with very “stern” warnings. I never wore a mask the entire trip and nobody said anything. I didn’t even get any dirty looks that I was aware of.
A few people even asked me how I was getting away with it and I just said that I didn’t bother - and some of them then removed their mask.
The signs mean nothing. It’s just the corporation practicing their “due diligence”.
