Yes!

I wear a mask every day when at work. So that’s 8-10 hrs every day. It has been a mandatory thing at my company since April of last year, but I masked up before that. 
When not working, anytime I am out in the public in closed spaces. 
For me, it is important to protect myself, those I work with, the people I serve, and finally and most important, my family.

We've had both vaccine shots. We only go out if it's absolutely necessary.  I know 7 people who have died from Corona-19. 6 out of the 7 were younger than me. I wear 3 masks, 2 surgical and 1 cloth. Just when I thought things were getting better, we now hear there are multiple new variants emerging. Don't know when this will ever end.

Here in The Netherlands, several tests showed that indeed these masks offer very little or no help.

They give you a false sence of security.

So I am with you Mike.

Answering when this will ever end .......it will end when you want it to end.

Some time ago I signed the Great Barrington Declaration, which clearly states that we should focus our attention on the elderly and give them real good care and not ruin our complete society.

@mikedetorrice  So...Just to set the record straight, you chose an article already widely discredited, even by themselves as time went on, swing and a miss. Have you seen a new ladder today? Believe me there are more things you can't do with them than there are you can. These mask are not designed to prevent covid, they are new enough they mention the pandemic, of coarse they have a disclaimer...da  But there are mask that are proven to work, it's been proven they do not restrict breathing or lead to carbon dioxide poisonings. These are real facts, not alternative facts, there are no such things. I watched a special about a congress women and her involvement in the Jim Jones Massacre and I could not believe so many people would follow a man like that but it's easier to fool the people than to convince them they have been fooled. A man I counted as a friend and my right hand man and a mentor has turned into a person I don't even recognize any more. His wife of almost thirty years is divorcing him and he went to jail twice last year, that has never ever happened before. I am at a loss and he will not accept my help. Can you help explain this to me?

I mask when entering a store, not when I walk around outside.  I do it because it is a policy of the store, not because I believe a mask protects everyone from anything.  Ironically, those who have a lung ailment are advised not to wear a mask.

IMO, About the only thing a mask will do is stop active sneeze/cough droplets from invading someone's personal space.  The only somewhat effective Covid 19 mask is reserved for health personnel.

I see some drivers wearing their mask when they are behind the steering wheel of their car going down the road.  Makes no sense to me. And one of the biggest cons is that wearing a plastic shield over the face will prevent the spread of Covid.
