I would wager it will fade away slowly, even if the government issues an “All Clear” alert on the Emergency Broadcast Network. People erred in the side of caution when adopting masks; they will err on the side of caution when abandoning them.
Not where I am. A minority of the people I encounter on a daily basis are masked and the great preponderance of them are
only wearing a mask because the woke company they work for still requires it.
The county I work in had no cases at all last week, so what on earth is the mask for?
People have become so conditioned to fear in the last year, it’s going to take time for them to unlearn it, if they ever do.
It depends on how much fear narrative the DS keeps pushing on us.
