    Yeah, I live in a city and mask usage is pretty infrequent now.

    I took the bus recently (no mandates anymore for public transit, ugh), and the busdriver had his mask over his mouth but not his nose. Like, whyyyyyy

      In germany its "at least" mandatory in public transit. But a lot of people don't even do that anymore.

        TBH, if we ever get to actual post-COVID/post-pandemic, I think I would consider continuing to wear masks on public transit and other high-density environments anyways.

        Masks should be mandated everywhere, but at a minimum, they should be mandated in public transit, grocery stores, doctors offices, hospitals, etc.--i.e., places where high-risk people have no choice but to go to, or might not have any alternatives.
