    Please don’t call people who wear mask in their car, Stupid. There are other reasons for wearing a mask, besides the virus. I am extremely allergic to pollen. Auto air conditioners without a filter does not filter out pollen.

    We are NOT south Florida. WE can control this and keep it tight and light. I hate doing it too, but wear a stupid mask EVERy place you go in public where there are people who you are not constantly around at home. DONT wear it while driving. That’s just silly…who are you protecting it’s not floating around like a cloud outside on the roadway. DO wear one inside. NEXT TWO WEEKS—MASKS and we can keep our counts low and probably downward.
    Look at your spouse or significant other; look at your children….whether you like them or not…look at you parents….is your pride of not wearing a mask and Unknowingly picking up particles of this virus and bringing it home to them and possibly killing them…worth it. 2 weeks. It’s not much to ask and to help contain, save lives, and avoid another stupid kill America lockdown!
