This morning at my cafe I couldn't find a seat that was at least 12 feet from anyone else where the ventilation was good so I'm sitting outside right now having my coffee. It's 55 degrees which is cold weather for Florida, but with a flannel shirt its like being on a picnic.
NOBODY was masked up inside and generally the percentage of masked up people here rarely exceeds 25% of the occupants. Florida is going to be a sitting duck.
I'm not taking any chances with this, because with 15X in the protein spike mutations, this will probably be way more contagious and possibly deadlier.
That sucks. I guess that there was no signage posted saying that you needed to be vaccinated.
I heard that NYC is 90% vaccinated. They said it's because you can get into any business establishment without proving that you've been vaccinated.
You’ll see signs recommending wearing a mask, but no enforcement. Even when there was a mandate locally there were people walking into shops without masks. Cashiers do not tend to confront anyone over compliance and I understand why. Odds are the ones who act this way are also going to be the ones who lose their marbles when asked to do so. With so many people packing heat these days and with illegal weapons proliferating it is becoming riskier to stand up to bad behavior in public. As the kind of person who does that I’m aware now I have to curb those instincts and move past it.
