Do you still wear a mask?

I know some people that do but most don't. I will wear one when I am sick. This is something I had always done if I was around people and had something going on. It makes the most sense. Keep my germs to myself. But it seems silly to wear them at this point if you are not sick.

I can understand wanting to wear them in certain settings be you sick or not. Those situations include public transport and hospitals. I will still wear a mask for both. That is about it though.

I only wore a mask three times since 2020. These were all in areas where they were mandated. Where I worked did not require them. It is a very small business and we only interact with people that work for the company. I guess I lucked out.

Yes, sometimes. Mostly I do not. Only if I know I am going to be in a crowded area will I wear it or if it is recommended. I have no issue wearing a mask. I got some really cute ones in 2020.

Not really, no. I can't remember the last time I did. I don't care if people still choose to. I think this is something that should have always been a thing anyways.

@douknowhat I think so too. The only issue I have with it is that in certain areas, it has allowed people to hide their faces and commit crimes.

I do at work or if I am in crowded areas. It is mostly optional at this point but I would rather be safe than sorry. I hate being sick, even if it is just a minor runny nose as I have trouble sleeping.

I stopped wearing it soon as we were able to because I know it didn't do much for people that were not sick. It helps if you are sick to keep germs away from other people but it does next to nothing to prevent other people's germs. You just end up carrying them close to your face! Sick

Most people don't where I am. But I still wear it if I'm going somewhere crowded. I try to avoid it all by living at home, not going out much and ordering everything online.

Despite the changes in modern times, there are efforts to preserve and celebrate traditional Vietnamese culture. This is why I believe this is why there are big festivals every year and Tet is still the biggest one.
