Should I still wear a Mask?
I have decided to be the last man standing when it comes to wearing a face mask, but nowadays one is becoming more and more uncomfortable wearing a mask in public because hey! No one wears a mask anymore.
The daily statistics from the NCDC are no longer of any concern or interest to anyone. I must confess I haven’t been taking particular notice of them recently.
I have a reserve mask practically everywhere – car, home, work e.t.c but on this day, I forgot to put it on and went to the hair salon and nearby shop.
It was as if I had volunteered for the military and was sent out to war without any weapon. I felt exposed and approached everyone else with extreme caution and suspicion – but apparently, I was the only one feeling this way; no one was wearing a mask in the hair salon and 99% of those at the store were not wearing a mask.
This situation is particularly concerning because schools, worship centres and Cinemas have recently been opened. Life has basically returned to normal. You have a cough? It’s no longer a big deal, just buy a cough syrup and continue going to work.
So is the Pandemic over? Do we now have herd immunity or are we just tired?
As for me and my house we shall continue to wear a Face mask. What about you?
