I was wondering how many of you actually wear a mask when going out.

For me it depends where im going, so sometimes. If im just going for a walk in my area I wont bother, but if im going on transport or into a shop which requires it I will take my mask and put it on.

 

[Phunkydiabetic]

If I'm going into a store or around people yeah.

 

[VlaudTheImpaler]

 

[Punished Miku]

It's mandated, so I'd rather not pay $500.

 

[Coolwhhip]

You think they are that ugly in the pictures thread eh?

 

[JORMBO]

Indoors yes. Not on walking trails since it's outdoors and I'm not close to anyone.

 

[Tesseract]

ja, it's mandated

 

[MasterCornholio]

Well I'm ordered to wear one. But if I wasn't I would just wear it in populated areas.

 

[Breakage]

It's recently become mandatory on London's public transport network, so that's the only time I wear one.

 

[TaySan]

I have to by law now so yes i do whenever im out.

 

[brap]

hell no.
land of the freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[Happosai]

I voted "no" by accident. I was thinking of "wear a mask" like hypothetical false-face. Yes, I do and it's nothing political to do so in Mexico. Where I'm at everyone is still on lock-down, large franchises only allow limited number of customers, and we just don't want the virus like in the States. Whether the masks are only shielding a portion of exposed area doesn't really matter (I wear glasses, too); we just want to see this mess the virus has caused dry up on our end in the next 6-12 months.

 

[MilkyJoe]

Wear a piece of cloth against my mouth, moistened by breath, in the summer? That's an infection waiting to happen.

COVID-19 alert

Can asymptomatic coronavirus disease be transmitted?

Asymptomatic transmission refers to transmission of the virus from a person, who does not develop symptoms. There are few reports of laboratory-confirmed cases who are truly asymptomatic, and to date, there has been no documented asymptomatic transmission.

 

[Nymphae]

Haven't worn one once, don't plan on it.

 

[Jooxed]

Yeah I work in healthcare I have been next to patients with corona and co workers with corona while we are wearing masks and so far I haven't got it.

it's not an inconvenience to me.

 

[Skyr]

Only in public indoor areas, as it is currently mandated here.

 

[Deleted member 17706]

I won't typically wear one outdoors, but if I'm going inside a store or some other cramped location with lots of people? Yes.

 

[and 3 others]

ja, it's mandated

I got the impression you were the rebel type.

 

[haxan7]

A mask? I won't even go to my mailbox without donning my exoskeleton

 

[Tesseract]

I got the impression you were the rebel type.

i follow the law

 

[Kadayi]

I'am the law

Corrected for accuracy

 

[008]

Have to, it's mandate to enter Inside

 

[Azelover]

It's law here.

One of these days I was receiving a package at my door without the mask on. And the guy delivering it was super rude to me.

I learned.

I'm never stepping a foot outside my home without a mask.

 

[Belgorim]

Its not realy something recomended here in sweden, so that would be a no.

 

[Hulk_Smash]

Nope. If we have Spanish Flu level deaths? Sure. But we don't. So, no.



P.S. If our governor called for a complete end to the lockdown tomorrow as long as everyone was cool with a mask mandate, I would do that in a heartbeat.

But, he hasn't. So, I won't.

 

[and 3 others]

i follow the law

Oh

 

[Susurrus]

Yes, other than being the law in DC and surrounding states when entering establishments, I am also a grown ass adult that can handle a mask on my face to help get rid of this COVID. If experts are wrong (they're not) and it doesnt help (it does)? Well, it isn't hurting anything. If I'm not around crowds I won't but ya if it is crowded or I'm inside, I will with the obvious exception of my house. I really don't understand why this is difficult for people and is prolonging this pandemic.

 

[Jesus Carbomb]

Yep

 

[and 3 others]

I had a disposable face mask taped to my helmet last week. It lasted until 80mph. Does that count?

 

[swarley64]

If I'm jogging I don't wear it (suburban area, it's easy enough to avoid people). Otherwise, I usually wear a neck gaiter, that I pull up over my face if I go into a store or am getting too close to someone

 

[DESTROYA]

Always keep one in my car but only put it on if I'm going to a a store

 

[manfestival]

I wear them into stores since they mandated it. Otherwise, I do not wear it and just focus on social distancing.

 

[Birdo]

Nah. I just avoid being near other people.

If I'm in a situation where I have to pass someone closer than two meters, I hold my breath

 

[J-Roderton]

Most of the time yeah.

 

[Revolutionary]

I live in NYC so yes, I'd be stupid not to.

 

[bucyou]

i got the antibodies

but yes

 

[belmarduk]

Yes, because I live in Central Florida which has a lot of senior citizens and I want to do my part to mitigate the spread of disease.

 

[Sign]

Yes, but only during my night shift.

Spoiler

 

[MaestroMike]

Only when I have to go get groceries or rob someone

 

[godhandiscen]

I do when I have to go to a store and such.

 

[Labolas]

During work and grocery shopping, both of which is mandatory. Not anywhere else

 

[ManaByte]

I have two:

A thicker filtered climbing mask with N95 filters that's a pain in the ass to breath through for places that are picky about masks.

A bandana for everywhere else that I can easily pull down in the car.

 

[Stouffers]

I'm not a total piece of shit, so yes.

 

[triplestation]

no one cared who i was til i put on the mask

 

[HUELEN10]

Of course I do. I have vulnerabilities plus I still assume I am an asymptomatic carrier to err on the side of caution.

 

[cryptoadam]

Wear one even though most people I see dont.

80% so far in the survey wear a mask at least some of the time.

 

[ipukespiders]

A mask, duct tape, rope, zip ties, a shovel. Been doing it for years.

 

[Goro Majima]

Yep whenever I go to the store, drive thru, or whatever I'll wear a mask.

Only time I don't is when I'm around my wife's parents or exercising or doing yardwork outside.

 

[Flying Toaster]

Yes as I practice social responsibility. It is my job to protect myself and those around me even if they believe that science is bunk.

 

[Celcius]

Yes, whenever I leave the house
