it’s interesting to see how common it is for people in NYC to still wear them sometimes, especially when on the subway (the air is shitty, so it makes sense).

I doubt it will be much of a problem here, except for those who always refused. yeah, it sucks, but it’s a lot better than getting sick— or dying.

I have wealthy lib family members who live in NYC. One recently asked my spouse, who is an RN regularly exposed to this deadly virus thanks to liberal/fascist anti-maskers, if covid was still a thing.

I wear one on the subway and it also helps a lot with smells. That "car that smells like shit" is often not noticeable at all.

The only thing that sticks out to me is scooters running red lights and stop signs all day, but no masks in sight in both Brooklyn and Bronx.

I guess Sunnyside to be specific and Morris Park.
