What do you need to prove it to you ? Seriously. And now they will be wearing them at the WH ?? Why ?

Honestly I hate them they are damn uncomfortable you can't really breath well on them especially in the warm weather, people can't hear u loud and clear, and it doesn't really block the spread of germs its not gurantee to at least ( i dont wear the N95's). with that said Ill probably have to start readjusting my lifestyle for a bit if face mask are required everywhere meaning I will start going out less or head to the beach more often

In the beaches and trails they only recommand you wear one but dont enforce it. I do always follow the rule of staying 6 feet apart and washing my hands

Anyways thats my opinion and just want to hear from everyone how do you guys feel about them? Would you choose not to wear one if it was just optional? Would you still go enjoy life with a face mask on?



I value my own health above the inconvenience, once your health gone, you've got nothing! Yes I wear em and will keep on wearing one, C19 not gone!



Plus when I see other without mask, it just tell me these folks most likely are not practicing on any level and to avoid them at all cost, and likely will become sick or a carriers themselves!

I heard or read somewhere that it might help cleaning your glasses with soap (?) and rinsing. I haven't tried that. I use glasses on occasion, and they haven't fogged up too much,... yet. I use an eyeglass solution that is supposed to prevent fogging up. Probably time to re-do it too. Tks for the reminder

“Why are wearing a mask? Were you burned by acid, or something like that?”

It guarantees you'll get less of them then maskless.

Yes, I find masks uncomfortable, but I am an adult, and I realize they help keep me, and others safe. Small price to pay for that.

Plus, I would like for things to open back up, and if people keep being stupid and we have another flare-up of Covid19, then we will be right back to where we started.

I can't say as I prefer wearing a mask *lol*. It's not something I am used to and it's less comfortable. Having said that, I understand why we're doing this, and I don't see it as such a big deal. So I try to do my part. Seems like the least I can do. This is a devastating national problem that's seriously damaging the economy and will likely kill over 100,000 Americans even with our best efforts. Can I wear a mask? Yeah, I can do that.

I have an umbrella - rain boots and rain coat. It works really well. The fear of going along with the program is very risky business to those around them who won’t. We have been warned - we are aware - the responsibility falls on us all. No exception.
