Even during the very worst of the "mask-mandate" madness during 2020, I almost never wore one. Even when I was forced to, such as on a train or in a doctor office, I would often pull it down to get fresh air. I always felt like I was suffocating in those darn things.
I have no idea how other people can happily wear one even when they are not required to.
“I would often pull it down to get fresh air. I always felt like I was suffocating in those darn things.”
I use the KN95s, and with COPD, I can only take it for a few minutes, too.
...I am not sure where this issues stands, but I think the country would erupt (or at least part of it would...) if the mask mandate for public transportation comes back...”follow the science....” we were told, and the science tells us now that face diapers are NOT healthy, but.....who cares.....
Even today, we are still seeing TOO MANY people wearing masks while driving alone in the car, walking or biking alone, and even inside their homes. Makes me wonder if they wear them while sleeping or showering. Stupid.
