There were more than 10 people not wearing masks in the subway car I was on. Are they vaccinated? I don't know but you're supposed to wear a mask whether you're vaccinated or not. One group of 5 had only one wearing a mask and were clearly headed to Yankee Stadium. You wonder why there's a spike in COVID-19 Delta Variant? There needs to be a police presence on the subways and buses. What happened to the goon squads that used to come on the SBS buses? They need to get on all buses. People are acting as if there are no rules or regulations.

Oh Stop. Hide in your home if your afraid to be around people. You can't control other people.
Police have more important things to deal with then be mask police. Plus you think they will risk their job/life to tell someone on the subway to wear a mask. You must be high.

N95 do make a difference, it's literally their purpose, other masks don't indeed.

Too often they were all about 'a mask' not, the right type of mask.
Too many do too little.

You won't see any policing because mask wearing, or lack thereof, seems to be heavily concentrated in certain groups.
So... it's racist if they're not following the rules.

Due to the federal mandate everyone is supposed to be wearing masks on the subway currently. I took a train in Brooklyn for a couple of stops over the weekend. In the station not everyone was wearing a mask but on the train I only saw one person without a mask.

What's it to you?

If you're afraid of COVID then get the vaccine, or take Ivermectin

Or just get an N95 or N99 Mask and you're good to go

I've worn n95s the entire time not the garbage useless masks most people wear.
I also wore it over my nose and mouth unlike the way a lot of idiots wear their masks.

I am vaccinated. Yesterday I actually took the 4 train to the Yankees game. Got on the train (my stop is an outdoor stop and I'm not wearing a mask outdoors on the platform with nonbody near me)and realized I forgot my mask. Half the train wasn't wearing one and I wasn't going to get off the train to go to the booth and ask for a useless cloth mask for some virtue signaling especially when half the train couldn't care less.
