With mask mandates lifting, are you still going to wear one?

[MONTYY]

Mask mandates won't be removed in planes or in public transit yet. Traveling by Viarail mask mandates remain in place.

I read that the Americans plan to drop masking on planes within a month or so. It is going to happen sooner rather than later.

Masks still required on planes, trains and buses for at least one more month as TSA extends mask mandate

The federal travel mask mandate has been in place since early 2021 and extended several times, but airlines have required masks since May 2020.

Think at the end of April in Ontario masking on TTC for example will be dropped as well.

It will be up to to the individual to decide

Poll results thus far are not a shock. very close to 50:50

So you're comfortable/not afraid walking around with no mask when there is still active covid going around but you are uncomfortable/afraid seeing other people wear one?

Now I've heard everything from a rightie perspective.

Correct. Because I know the mask offers very little protection against the virus.

 

[squeezer]

Why? Because humans are individuals and we are visual. Seeing people's facial expressions makes me more trusting, more social and more comfortable in a public setting.

It will make me very uncomfortable if I walk into Perla or Pure and see your mug uncovered. Just sayin!!!!

The yes has is by a bit more. About 51% to 41%. But it is interesting.

Does this mean roughly half the country doesn’t agree with lifting this restriction? Things I ponder over coffee on a Sunday morning. LOL

masks do not prevent transmission. there were no mask mandates during past flu seasons. turn of the tv for once

OK, fair enough, but if you ever find yourself in need of surgery, I am demanding, right here and now, that you order your surgeons to not wear a mask as they perform the operation.

surgeons only wear masks while they are working in Operating rooms. they don't wear mask all day when they are NOT at work

And you can be sure that they'll continue to do so for the foreseeable future, regardless of the mandates.

nobody is protesting against wearing masks in operating rooms. operating rooms are sterile

1.6 The Operating Room Environment
The operating room (OR) is a sterile, organized environment. As a health care provider, you may be required to enter the OR during a surgical procedure or to set up before a surgical procedure. It is important to understand how to enter an OR area and how the OR area functions to maintain an sterile environment.

Members of the surgical team work hard to coordinate their efforts to ensure the safety and care of their patients. The surgical team is in charge of the OR and makes decisions regarding patient care procedures. The OR environment has sterile and non-sterile areas, as well as sterile and non-sterile personnel. It is important to know who is sterile and who not, and which areas in the OR are sterile or non-sterile.

exactly. Before COVID, now we have COVID so things changed and for 2 years doctors have been wearing masks outside of the OR. That is a fact you can not dispute. Even by throwing in irrelevant media attacks in your posts

the media lied and spread covid hysteria for over 2 years i don't care what they think

Great! What the fuck does that have to do with the fact that doctors, actual medical professionals, who listen to science and not new, wore masks for 2 years?

I don’t care about your issues with the media. This has nothing to do with the media. Doctors are doctors. Not media personal.

But keep deflecting because you have no plausible argument.

 

[HEYHEY]

Yes I'm gonna continue to wear my mask
Also I'm gonna wear a cotton t-shirt to protect myself from gun shots

The vast majority will wear them at all times while they're in the hospital, ORs or not. Unlike the selfish anti-everythings they are concerned about the health of others, especially the ones who are already in the hospital for any number of reasons.
