I am hearing the opposite from some nurses the media's job is to lie. I heard nurses have been laid off because lots of people were trying to avoid the hospital because of the covid scare. lockdowns don't do much for slowing the virus anyway. they were telling cancer patients to wait for their treatment during the height of the pandemic. people put off going to the hospital and because of it died. more people die from lockdowns than the actual virus.
Nurses have been walking off the job all over the country. They can’t take it anymore.
I work with hospitals across the country. They are filling up to the brim. They are turning away patients for safety reasons. They are losing revenue like crazy, bleeding.
The healthcare system is collapsing. Christmas is going to be a nightmare with everyone traveling.

Well, just do your part and remain confined to your apartment in New York for at least the next 8 months. Thanks in advance.
Mask below the nose is unlikely to expose anyone to more risk. Most of the risk comes from people talking (and spewing air particles). The nose is not a problem unless the person is sneezing.
I was at whole foods tonight and was harrassed by some older employee (73yrs old). He demanded I put a mask on... And when I put it BELOW MY NOSE he said "It must cover your nose" and I said "Its hard for me to breathe..... They dont make me wear one!" -- He went off to tattle on me,I guess he isnt used to people he cant walk all over!
I took off into the store before he came back..... Another employee who knows me met me in the isle and gave me a mask (He must have said something to her) .. I didnt put it on!! -- When I walked back outside that guy was there and I didnt have it on and he didnt say anything that time!!!

It's too bad someone in a high risk group just trying to do his job has to deal with an idiot like you.
I haven't been to Boston. But, I have been to NYC and San Francisco, and walked around maskless outdoors. Often, the only one. No one shamed me. Sometimes I walked into stores accidentally without one, and they'd gently remind me to put one on. That was it.
It does not happen to me all the time. if i walk down the street usually nobody says anything but if I walk on a bike path or a park or trail they have said things to me. if you lived here for enough time you would have someone say something to you. its happened to me like 7 times but I live here.
if you're outdoors and maintaining a social distance of 6 feet( where that distance actually has some effectiveness, not like indoors where its actually supposed to be at least 20 feet) then you don't need to wear a mask. And that's not even considering that masks aren't very effective to begin with.
Don't be afraid to stand up to some mean spirited ignorant karen that wants to play mask nazi.
