Yes, I wear a cheap Covid mask when I am in the grocery store, at the doctors and sometimes in close proximity to others elsewhere. But not at home, when outside or in the car. And, when I do wear a mask, I have to put my eyeglasses on my head because, otherwise they fog up. And why do my glasses fog up? Because my breath, goes out the top of the mask and not through it ... as must also be much of what I inhale ... which tells me that the purpose of this mask is compromised ... and it’s protection offered is less than all my betters are telling me. I can’t tell you how much less ... but I’m sure it’s far less than those much more expensive surgical masks which actually would filter my breath ... in and out ... but are pretty much restricted to hospitals.
Then why do I wear such an uncomfortable and ineffective thing? Social pressure, that’s why. What, me bowing to virtue-singaling orthodoxy? ‘Fraid so. Even your humble blogger would rather not have some crazed Karen hectoring me in front of the rutabegas. So I grope my way around the Stop and Shop ... asking other shoppers where I am or what aisle contains the mustard. Of course, I often get nasty responses even then ... because I didn’t notice the arrows on the floor ... which, if I had, would make me walk far further than my aging body would prefer.
So, yes, kind reader, to some degree, I am also a coerced member of the confused flock of sheep that follow around our scientists whose confusion and lack of preparation has enabled the demise of 200,000 other members of the flock ... a ‘grim milestone.’ Oops, I forgot, it was Trump who killed them on purpose.
