This wouldn’t have happened in Feb (Jan date), the indoor mask mandate for Atlanta was lifted in Feb.
I am in the Atlanta metro area just outside of the I-285 beltway and I haven't worn a mask anywhere in any store or business for a year now, except for two times at my WellStar doctor visits and once getting my haircut at Great Clips (their masks were very cheaply made).
For honorable mention: I got a shingles vaccine at the Walmart Pharmacy. The Pharmacist walked out from the counter area and asked if I would wear a mask as they require? She said she could give me one if I didn't have one with me. I told her I would wear one if she would provide it. I put it on and she gave me the shot. I thanked her and took the mask off to continue my shopping.
Farcical masking is a thing to behold.
