I honestly don't know. I assume it's ignorance, they don't know how ineffective the surgical masks are. But I see people chin diapering, too, so I really just don't know. The general public is as distant from me as I am from Sag A. I honestly have no idea at all what normal people think is happening.
Also, faint line on my rapid test today. Still +pos+
I wonder if the latest strains are, idk, more virulent, or something. A number of people who are very diligent about masking and precautions have caught it while travelling, mostly from family. : p
Or I guess maybe we're just getting sloppy five years in. I think that's what got me. I'm going to be more insistent that any restaurant meal must be outside or I won't be eating.

Reading this hits different the morning after getting sloshed in a friend's yard and realizing they brought you to a crowded restaurant after. I hate alcohol, I hate america.
I was literally just talking with that same friend about how neither of us want to get covid again :(
CDC isn't pushing them and randos who try to educate on COVID get stuffed by algos. Maybe it's time to bring back pamphlets. Do you think Jack Chick might be willing to make a few COVID comics?
Yes, most of the ones I noticed were in this category unfortunately. At one point I noticed a younger person just using their hoodie as a make-shift mask held on by one hand while we were all waiting together. I guess seeing me and hearing various coughs got them thinking maybe it was worth trying something.
I remember in the very early days of the pandemic when leaving from a grocery run I caught sight of a guy walking in with his shirt pulled up and pinched over his nose the same way you do when your buddy farts on you in the car and you have to do something to keep from gagging. That’s about the point I considered we might be just a little doomed.
plus 
having a field day it seems.
Lines uup with my experience. And a number of them were surgical masks.
why even wear a mask at that point, N95s are easy to come by
