i bet everyone over there is being germaphobic and cautious, even if they can't distance.

meanwhile..... in murica, tens of thousands of people just spit on one another again

I have heard Walgreens and CVS are now requiring this too (but I havent been to either of those in over a week, so Im not sure).
I was at Costco, Target, WalMart and Lowes yesterday and saw no such thing anywhere. At no place was I offered one nor told one is mandatory. Most at WalMart were wearing masks, a few gave me the stink-eye but I just smiled and said hello.

It depends on what State you are in. Many are mandating masks to walk into a store or you are refused service and can be fined.

I have a question- say you have been home - being a good person - and you do in fact have the virus - but not even a sniffle- You have been home 1 month and last time saw another human was at that social, say March 27th - You are positive but how long does that virus live in your body ?? 14 days ? It just dies ? Goes dormant ?

Your immune system deals with it and kills it within at most a few weeks. You may not even know you have it, or just have minor cold and/or flu symptoms.

You might just think you had the sniffles.

Has anyone here had, or know someone who had, the common flu in the past couple of months?

Mask, shmask.

Combover Toddler watching TV in the WH is incapable of procuring or manufacturing any masks anyway, so the mask discussion is moot.
