Covid-19 lockdown check-in

[Grey Fox]

I'm *trying* to give maskless people here the benefit of the doubt and assume at least some of them simply don't have access to a mask.  It's hard to believe that after two months people can't figure out how to get their hands on one.... but then again it's also hard for me to believe that there are still people who are hardcore supporters of Trump, so I guess I would suggest that if you are clueless enough to think he is doing a TREMENDOUS JOB, then you probably also lack the wherewithal to figure out how to procure even the most basic of face coverings.

I have 2 masks because my workplace gave them to me. Those I bought are still AWOL. Access is still not universal, I would say.

Why are you worried about that when the murder hornets have already reached the Louisville area (according to a shady FB post someone made).

I think masks are a critical mass thing.
Here you only see 1 in 30 at most with a mask. I think the key thing is people don't want to stand out and look like a nutter. If  it passes a certain point it would take off sharply.

[Maximus]

Here you aren't allowed in businesses without a mask.

Yes, one of my employees said he wouldn't want to feel awkward. Because not feeling awkward (which I thought was the resting English state? ) is worth endangering people's health.

It's mainly feeling awkward about if we're being awkward

Did my weekly supply run. More people in the streets with all shops being open again. Still mandatory to cover nose/mouth in shops. Outside I saw maybe 10% wearing a mask, felt less than last week.

Speaking of masks...

I don't really need one, as I can easily put 2m between me and anyone, but for the few times I may need one, I've looked at a few designs.

Now, regular cotton masks need to be washed each time we wear it, and they can be washed only for 5-10 times, right?

And I've seen incredible designs for masks designed to filter out pollution particles (forgot the name, PM2.5, I think).  Since we're told home made masks can help, I figure these two can help too, to prevent infecting others in case I have it?  They seem reusable a lot more than other types of masks, and I only need to change the carbon filters every once in a while (in my case, not that often).

I hope we're going to see a lot of overturned convictions now.

I think that level of introspection is beyond most prosecutors.

Would "being black" be more or less evidence in his view?

Yes and I think that's the situation here, maybe only 1 in 100 wear a mask here.

Oh and I'd be happy to wear one whilst shopping etc, but they seem near impossible to find/buy online as grumbler and grey fox mentioned.

Up until yesterday masks were active discouraged. Now they will be mandatory in public transport, as distancing just isn't possible there. But otherwise I'm not expecting people to wear them much.
