Yep, I’m immune compromised and fully vaccinated since February but the treatments and medicine I take every week have wiped out the vaccine. Hopefully they approve the 3rd shot for immune compromised people in the meeting next week. If the idiots don’t approve it after the findings of results from Israel then I’ll just get one on my own.
Do you still wear a mask?

I think it's too late to save it now. The thread title and the question both are asking the same thing in a different manner. You open the thread to vote for the title and don't catch the second question.
Airports and airplanes … that’s it.
Another related note — Why do the vaccinated get their panties in a bunch over what the unvaccinated do, anyway? I can’t wrap my head around that.

We've been fully vaccinated since April, but started wearing again this week when shopping indoors, because the numbers are going up down here and many people are starting to wear them again. Like you, I like the mask because it usually cuts out the useless conversations with strangers. Today in Aldi though, there was a guy (also wearing a mask) who asked me why oranges were so high here in Florida while I was getting some eggs. I told him I didn't know, and went on my way. While waiting to check out, he and his wife got in line behind me with only a few items in their hands. I told them they could go in front of me. They thanked me and the guy turned around and asked me why oranges were so high down here. I told him again that I didn't know, and he proceeded to tell me that he asked another guy that and he didn't know either. I said "yeah, that guy was me". He laughed and said he needed a facial recognition machine, to which I nodded in agreement, but thought to myself...I'm wearing a blue UK tee shirt, blue & white UK visor and wearing a blue mask with a white interlocking UK. How many people have you seen in here like that?
Well…so why are oranges so high down there?
Delta. And I don’t disagree on a logical level. But it’s not what about what I think.
How weak are your lungs if you can’t live your life the same way with a mask on than you can without a mask? I was still capable of going out to shop, do stuff outdoors, go to a movie (before the theaters closed), etc.
Because there are many who can’t get the vaccine, like children under 12, and the immunocompromised are much less protected with the vaccine than others.
Some folks actually care about the welfare of other people instead of being selfish and only caring about themselves.
I visited KY and TN between July 3-15. Encountered a few folks wearing masks in Kroger stores in Middlesboro, Bowling Green and Walmart in Leitchfield. Visited a gun store in Clarkson. Even the Amish customers inside that gun shop were 'maskless'. Heh, we saw those Amish guys later at Wally World Leitchfield again with no masks later that afternoon. Horses (2) and buggy faithfully parked end of the parking lot.
We've experienced a spike in COVID cases lately in Williamson County located just north of Travis MSA. I'll probably start wearing again. No biggie.

Wow! I can't believe nearly 40% of you are wearing masks.
I thought it would be 10-20%.

Nah. I have zero health conditions and a great immune system that fights it off fast. Last time I wore a mask was when it was required at work. I made sure to wear it correctly and not touch my face. Still was exposed and caught Covid there. Was my second time catching it within 14 months. My fully vaccinated relative who works as a nurse caught it within a week of me and was way worse off then I was. Go figure.
I'm not sure if you understand to what extent normal people, in real life, as opposed to Twitter, are absolutely sick of this kind of moralizing. Nobody likes a hall monitor. Stop being one. It's a very bad look.
Havent worn one since fully vacinated, have not been anywhere its required
Guy - “I’m not scared. I’m not wearing a mask”
same guy. “I’m scared of the vaccine”.
ps: I haven’t worn a mask except to fly since after two weeks after my vaccine in March

...or enjoy the restrictions. It's pretty cut and dry I'd say.
Not that it is your business, but I did in early April. And only did so for purely selfish reasons, for leisure travel. How do you like me now?
Will say, think MTA in NYC should just make it a permanent rule on subways.... aside from Covid, I can only imagine the std’s people are breathing.
I'm having a difficult time finding anyone who claims to be scared of the vaccine. Can you link me to any such posts?
Why is looking at personal risk a conspiracy theory to you people? Also, why is refusing to take a non FDA approved experimental vaccine not ok with you people?
thank you for proving my point.
I’m fine with people not taking it. I just laugh at those who say things that are contradictory.
I don’t have to link anything. Plenty of examples of people saying they won’t get them because they’re scared of the so called “side effects”. All of which are more risky from the actual virus.
it’s no big deal. Just find it funny
How is my statement wrong? This is literal fact. It’s not FDA approved and it’s experimental.
It probably is but OP is an idiot and the thread originally asked “Do you still wear a mask?”
Dude, you are wasting your time arguing with hall monitors and virtue signalers. Same type of people who will tell you to get a vaccine just a month after you’ve actually had covid and have natural immunity. I have family in both the medical field and medical coding field. The number of people vaccinated who are still catching it, and even dying (elderly only so far) from it is surprising just in the small areas they work.
I know 8 between age 60 & 78 who say they aren't getting it. Two I think for religious reasons, one told not to for medical reasons, two anti-vax & three beats me.
I’m pretty sure most people that wear masks all of the time are ignoring the science on how masks work. If it ain’t an N95 it’s a security blanket more than anything.
Best thing about the work shortage. My work still has a mask mandate and nobody wears them. The bosses brought it up once and we told them we could go somewhere else that doesn't make us wear a mask for feelings... they haven't enforced it since.
Granted... we had 1/3 of warehouse test positive for covid last year and haven't had a positive in months...
Lol for some reason when I edited the poll question in the thread the thread title apparently changed too. It was "do you still wear a mask" or something like that.
