Many Bay Area residents feel free keeping their masks on. Across the Bay Area, people are still wearing their masks — and many say it’s because other people are doing it

My husband and I are both fully vaccinated. For the last two weeks, we’ve gone just about everywhere without a mask.

However, in one little grocery, we only saw one other couple without masks - everyone else was still wearing. At local supermarkets with even more people, we still only saw one other woman going maskless.

Either people just aren’t getting vaccinated here - or they don’t trust the vaccine.

Wearing a mask was so uncomfortable to me, that I can’t imagine that those with a green-light to give it up aren’t doing so...

If part of the plan is to use masks to drive people like me crazy, it’s working. I still see people running in 80 degree weather with a very tight looking mask. Do they not get ill from this? I’ll never understand this mask thing, ever.

The need to be deprogramed from the brainwashing.

Hardly a surprise - all leftists must believe and act like all other leftists, or they have their party cards confiscated.

Gloves while driving too? Come ON!
Your poor fingernails are saying “I Can’t Breathe!”
You’re gonna have soft, thin, fragile fingernails. Is that what you want?

Mask requirements were dropped last week. You’d think everyone would be ecstatic. But no. It felt more like a wake. Even most of my coworkers are still masked up.

Bunch of idiots waiting for Rachel Maddox to say it’s okay.

“I feel I’ll follow the group,” Courtoy said.

…well, there’s your first problem.

Grow a spine, dude.

Lemmings!

The guy’s a wuss.

Just the kind that would happily follow orders putting you in a boxcar.

They live in San Francisco, where rational behavior is not tolerated, and rigid conformity is a way of life.

“I think if a majority of people in a confined space indoors stop wearing them, I feel I’ll follow the group,” Courtoy said. “But it’s like a snake biting its tail: You’re waiting for other people to give you the signal, and they’re waiting for your signals. It’s a difficult situation.”

Just in time for the Biden administration to send the signal to turn in your friends and neighbors who have "extreme" thoughts.

I’m fully unvaccinated and don’t wear a mask anywhere unless verbally asked. Here in SF Bay Area.

And yes about half the people walking around OUTSIDE are masked the people here are insane.

[CatOwner]

In California, especially the Bay Area? Yep. Asian women have been wearing face shields for years while driving. Gotta stop/slow the sun-aging process, or so goes the reasoning.

“I think if a majority of people in a confined space indoors stop wearing them, I feel I’ll follow the group,” Courtoy said. “But it’s like a snake biting its tail: You’re waiting for other people to give you the signal, and they’re waiting for your signals. It’s a difficult situation.”

Good grief. Stop eating and drinking all that soy and grow a pair. Give the “signal” and breathe freely. 🙄
