Not even nurses I know wear masks outside of work here.

    Yes, I still subscribe to the idea that you need 2 of these three: physical distancing, outdoors (or extremely good HVAC), and masking. Concert outdoors? Mask. Grocery store? Distance and mask. Indoor concert? No way to get 2 of three - don’t go.

      Nice summary. That’s how I’ve been doing it, but without realising it quite so succinctly

    I do in shopping malls and other crowded locations air conditioning. If I’m outdoors, I don’t

    I have been getting maybe a bit lax with masking, but I still mask in high risk areas. I am currently in an airport with an n95 mask on, but during the trip I was on I frequently had it off when I felt more secure.

    On trains on buses of course, and then whenever I need to be near older people.

    Even if everybody says, that the pandemic is “over”, I’ll wear my mask on trains, bus, while shopping, and so on. Because I don’t think, that the pandemic is over and ppl just making it worse when they stop wearing masks.

    Sometimes, when I’m with many people, especially when I don’t know them. For example in public transit and at large events. Unless I’m there to party. Also sometimes when I don’t feel 100% well and come in contact with old, weak or sick people.

    yes, I always mask, especially in public transit. I bought a full face respirator as there are many fewer people masking so better masks are required to reduce risk sufficiently.

    yes n95

    I’m usually the only one of one of a very few

    even the pharmacists at cvs don’t wear masks anymore

    everyone has completely given up since the gubmint says the pandemic is business as usual

    Public transit, large events and shops that aren’t completely empty. They’re still mandatory in all medical facilities here (France) including pharmacies, so there’s that too.

    Not often. After my 5th jab, and after catching covid once . . . rather gave it up. Today the only time I wear one is during check-in on a flight (security, boarding, etc). Otherwise . . .no.
