I work in State Government and our department has stated masks no longer required in workplace for vaccinated individuals and starting June 2, anyone, regardless of vaccination status can go maskless in the office. Most people already ditched the masks at work but now we can do so freely.
You would think concern for your health would be enough. Thousands of unvaccinated people will die over the next year as a consequence of their political beliefs. I can not, no matter how hard I try, think of a dumber reason to lose your life.
I'll say it again in case it wasn't clear. For me personally avoiding the vaccine stems from a concern for my health.

Do you really think a whole lot of unvaccinated people are going to be going around wearing their masks? If places aren't demanding papers (like Costco) then it seems like the best way to avoid being accosted now, is to not wear a mask. Funny how the tables have turned.
I'm still wearing mine mainly because I see a lot of other people still wearing theirs so I don't want to stick out and it's not a big deal since I'm not wearing those awful disposable ones anymore.

The mRNAs are among the most effective and the safest vaccines ever produced. Pfizer has applied for full licensure and it will certainly be granted after the machinations of bureaucracy have been completed.
For people in general maybe...maybe not but what about just for certain people?

There was one time I was not fine with it at our store. Hopefully they quit using that stuff. I haven't worked in that part of the store for a while so I don't know.
Lots of crazy viro-doomers and hypochondriacs will be masking for a long time.
Most of them tend to be on the left, politically.
Less than 50% of the nation is unvaccinated, taking off masks is pretty dumb. I am not 'on the left' and neither are most people where I live, and yet 99.9% are still wearing masks.

I have no idea where you're from, but unless it's Singapore or a similar country where you damn well better do what you're told, or an extremely small rural area, I'll call utter BS on your '99.9% are still wearing masks'. In fact, I'll call BS that there was EVER a point where 99.9% were wearing masks.
A lot of folks still wearing them? I'll buy that. Probably 25% of folks in south central Texas are still wearing them... down from maybe 90% when you HAD to.
Property rights? You ever heard of the Golden Rule? "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Of course, you've never read that. You're a conservative. The Bible is just a cheap prop. It's all about ME! ME! ME! God forbid you would actually read the Bible or follow any of its teachings.
I’m not a conservative and not a Christian.
