This past week the CDC came out with the recommendation that if you are fully vaccinated, you do not have to wear a mask in public or social distance.
My state jumped on it and rescinded the state mask mandate.
Many businesses did as well: Walmart, Trader Joe’s, Publix.
I went to Trader Joe’s this morning.
And there were very limited people who were not wearing a mask.
I counted 2.
I am fully vaccinated, have been since January, and you bet I was wearing a mask.
Remember, they stopped the mask mandate, if you are fully vaccinated.
There is no way to check the vaccination status of customers, unless you ask.
It is putting the burden on the stores.
Because of people who will lie, obfuscate, fib.
And I am wondering if cases are going to go up within 3 weeks because people are stupid.
