LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - A new national survey indicates most Americans still are not comfortable venturing out without a mask...

Numbers from a poll conducted by Morning Consult show dining outdoors offers the highest comfort factor for people removing their masks.

But the poll also finds “most adults still feel more comfortable wearing masks.”

Only about four out of 10 said they are comfortable without a mask while staying at a hotel, dining indoors, going on a date, or going on vacation.

Only about 1 in 3 say they are comfortable socializing without a mask.

The number was similar for attending a wedding, going to the office or to the grocery store...

Fewer than a third of the people polled said they are comfortable without a mask when it comes to going to church, school, the mall or the gym.

But at Derby City Crossfit, the masks at Wednesday’s noon workout were definitely off.

”I think most of us were vaccinated,” member Steve Knight said. “I would say, I don’t have any idea what the percentage is. But I think that was a decision that was made when we decided to go maskless. We knew most of us had been vaccinated.”...

The Morning Consult poll found that unvaccinated adults are twice as likely to be comfortable maskless.

“In general about four in 10 people are fully vaccinated so it’s about six out of, more than half, when you go out to the grocery store, should be wearing a mask still,” Dr Sarah Moyer, Louisville Metro Public Health Director said. “It’s just the hope that people will continue to do that until we get the vaccination numbers up in our city.”

Their bodies, their choice.

Their paranoia.

Met a women last week who had the CCP virus, fully vaccinated and was wearing two masks.

She was afraid of the viral variants.

She is a rat abused sheeple.

The only ones nervous about people going without masks are the liberal zealots who are nervous about losing control over the masses.

Some people remain irrationally frightened and masking has become a necessity for their everyday life ... a portable "security blanket" to "protect" them during troubled times like these (troubles not limited to just the Chinese Cooties!)

It takes time to break a habit ... even an unhealthy, nasty, dirty habit like mask-wearing of healthy people that has been incessantly promoted as a cure for all ills for the past 14 months. Cheers!

As long as they don’t expect me to wear one I don’t care. It helps self identify people I probably want to stay away from anyway

Apparently in California, more relaxed seating was allowed in some Churches this past Sunday. This was the first Sunday services, since the virus visited us for many churches.

If a family up to 6 people or two couples with a couple of kids or visitors came together. The ushers could fit all of them in the same long pew. If the pews in front and the pews in back of that pew with people were vacant during the service.

Everyone had to make reservations and check off that they were vaccinated.

No one was asked if they had been vaccinated.

Still no communion at the alters and supposedly no singing in the church by attendees.

Choir members were singing off site, and their song singing was sent electronically into the service at the appropriate time.

Going on a date? Every thing comes off except the mask?

I have an active imagination but I cannot imagine foreplay with a mask.

Nervous? Most people welcome the dropping of tyrannical unconstitutional edicts.

But the poll also finds “most adults still feel more comfortable wearing masks.”
..........................
There are a lot of scaredy cats around for sure. But I think a lot of it is virtue signalling politics. Sickening. Fake.
