Indoor masking is quite common in the SF Bay Area.
- TaylorAlexander 4y agoI live in the SF Bay Area. Yes you will always see masks but I’m surprised how many people you see who don’t wear them.
- howinteresting 4y agoYeah, that's definitely true. At the grocery store near me (bougie area, a lot of older people) I see maybe 50-60% of people masked. On the other hand, now that I'm quadruple vaccinated and use an N95 I'm not overly bothered by people not wearing masks around me.
- ghaff 4y agoAnd that's shockingly high for Massachusetts where it's probably less than 1% in general--outside of healthcare settings and probably a few percent higher on public transit.
- mistrial9 4y agoyes and, you see "social signal" surgical masks and also clinical N-95 variations.. personally I do wear the N-95 at the grocery store at this time. I throw them out after a few weeks of use and use a new one. A box of ten is about $15 at a local hardware store near me.
- TurkishPoptart 4y agoIt's a cult over there. They get guilted into feeling like bioterrorists if they don't.
- howinteresting 4y agoMany people are prosocial and don't need to be guilted into things, unlike what conservatives think.
- slaw 4y agoI would rather call it religion, they really believe in masks.
- jacobjjacob 4y agoThis is not true. Most people I know and I don’t wear masks regularly anymore, except for special cases. And no one has ever guilted me for it. There are certain places where many people are masked, so I might wear one to be polite.
