So the CDC said vaccinated people don't have to wear masks outdoors. Big mistake, even if the science backs it, which I'm not 100% it does. You're going to get a lot of anti-vaxxers claiming to be vaccinated and having an excuse to walk around freely. I guess it hurts them more but it could still hurt others who are not able to get vaccinated and relied on herd immunity.
I still plan to wear my mask everywhere. I've gotten used to it and unless the vast majority of the people that are around me at the time are also without a mask, I'll feel like I'd still be getting judged by people. I don't carry my vaccine card with me at all so it'll be a hassle if I were to be questioned by the owners/management of a place about why I'm not wearing a mask and for proof of vaccination.
I still see the morons walking around with chin-diapers. I was at Chick fil a yesterday and a guy was waiting in line with his nose very much out. I bet that guy is excited to finally not wear a mask, whether he's vaccinated or not.
I think private businesses still have the right to enforce mask-wearing and deny service so why go through the trouble of looking up to see if a restaurant requires it or not and risk being turned away? Or carrying a mask everywhere just in case. Might as well just wear it and not worry about it.
This thread is going to be interesting to read in the future. While it's definitely not a chronicle of all of society, I was just reading the first few posts in here and thinking how we had no idea how long COVID was going to be an issue. We were more concerned with the supply of toilet paper, soap, and hand sanitizer lol.
