Re: If you are vaccinated, are you still wearing a mask?

No, I am not still wearing a mask, unless I am required to.

The only place I have been to in quite some time now that still requires masks is the nursing home to visit my relative who is recovering from the after effects of a serious battle with COVID.

I take Uber once in awhile, and they also require masks.

I am a teacher, but I do work part-time in the summer...has been almost entirely from home though.

No. The only time I will wear a mask in a store is if one of my kids is with me. They are all under 12, so not vaccinated, and they need to still wear one indoors. I can't expect my child to wear it if I'm not. So in that situation, we all mask up.

Re: If you are vaccinated, are you still wearing a mask?

Yes. I guess I'm so used to them that the only place I haven't worn one was to the supermarket last weekend and that's only because I forgot.

I didn't get the vaccine just so I could stop wearing a mask. TBH they don't really bother me too much.

Yes - I don't know how effective the vaccine is for me b/c of the chemo meds I was on, but also because there are 4 kids in my life (between me and my boyfriend) that aren't old enough to get vaccinated yet. I know that kids don't tend to get it, but my son has asthma and I don't want him dealing with a lifetime of side effects if he gets it and recovers.

Depends.

If my son is with me, I always wear one.

If an indoor place is crowded, I wear one.

No, I don't wear my mask UNLESS it's required which is usually only at the doctor or medical facilities. I stopped wearing my mask two weeks after my second shot.

ETA - In all fairness, I don't make my kids (12 and 8) wear them either because they both had COVID and have antibodies.

Re: If you are vaccinated, are you still wearing a mask?

I am. It doesn't bother me for the limited time I am in a store or a public place. I wore one all day all year at the school I work for and I'm used to it. My child is too young to get vaccinated and I don't really want to possibly be a vessel to bring it home to him.

Last week at the camp I work for, one counselor was diagnosed with covid. It's not gone. More stories of breakthrough infections. I know it's still possible to get - so I'll wear my mask.

I know there is no way to remove all risk and we are still going out and doing things, but I bring my mask anyway.

Depends on how crowded the place is and if I'm indoors or outdoors.

I was and I just stopped. I went to the gym for the first time in so long. No masks in sight. The guy on the treadmill next me (we had a treadmill between us) coughed twice and I started regretting it. I held my breath and turned my head..which I know does nothing.

I cringe when I hear people cough now. I heard one kid cough in a store and it was that deep gross ass cough that sounded messy. That kid shouldn’t have been out. I threw my mask on. Its going to take time to get over for me

Yes, I do depending on where I am, who is with me and how crowded the place is. If my kids are with me, then I mask up bc they are too young to be vaccinated. I also wear it to help protect my mom who just finished treatments for leukemia. Her immune system is compromised, so I'm trying to protect her as well.

My son just tested positive this week after having baseball camp outdoors all last week. The only time they were inside was 2 hours on Friday bc of the rain. He said he wore his mask while inside. So, yeah, he most likely picked it up from on of the HS kids helping with camp, or someone in his group that carried it from somewhere else.

I was walking out of a store with my mask on. An unmasked man was walking in and sneezed when he was right next me! I quickly turned my head to the side, but I realize with the force of the sneeze, with him being just a couple of feet away, and my little cloth mask, I wasn't too protected.

They really don't offer much protection at all unless everyone is wearing them.

I would have felt somewhat better if he had one on, or much worse if I wasn't wearing one! Chat Icon

No unless the place requires it. So far it’s only been my nail salon and the dr office.

I do not. Both kids are vaccinated and do not. My husband is vaccinated and he still wears his mask when going into stores. The whole point with all of this is that there needs to be a choice. His choice is to wear one and the rest of ours is not too. Neither is wrong and both sides need to just let people do what they want.

Only if my DD is with me because she wears one in a store and I feel like it’s unfair to make her wear one and not me. Stores in my area are about 50/50.

I went to get my nails done last week and when I walked in it was just the owner and the nail tech. The owner told me if I was vaccinated no need for the mask and said she and the tech were both vaccinated. As I’m putting my mask in my bag another customer comes in behind me and hears the owner's explanation. She proceeds to tell us we do have to wear masks, the CDC changed the rules. So I put my mask back on because I’m not in the mood to start arguing and this budding virologist dumba$$ proceeds to get her hair done with NO mask. Maskless the entire time.

So she came out and said you HAVE to wear masks and didn’t have one on? People make no sense.

What are the new CDC rules?
