The twitterverse is also enraged that stores like H-E-B dropped their mandatory mask requirements also. This signals I'm going to have to stay inside even more because another large wave of an extremely-contagious mutant SARS-CoV-2 strain is now inevitable due to myopic, political idiocy. Abbott and his ilk are proud of their risky anti-intellectualism.
