In the end, it’s up to us to help ensure our own safety. I’m often the only person masked in the grocery store or out running errands, unless my husband is with me, then he’s masked as well.
It’s surprising that some medical facilities are mask optional! The goal is to protect patients who are at most risk. So far I haven’t seen that locally where I live. Recent visits to my clinic for labs still required everyone entering to wear a mask thankfully.
I just looked on the Mayo Clinic website and they’re still not allowing patients or visitors in without a mask.
Do you live in a part of the country where the Covid numbers are lower?
