How would you feel if someone not wearing a mask sneezed and passed on the virus to you?
Well said. Thank you. I wear a mask whenever I'm in public as a way to protect others in case I am asymptomatic. I still work full time...the two days per week I now work in my employer's office, I must observe my employer's policy that masks are to be worn whenever an employee is away from their desk. All production employees at my company must wear a mask during their entire shift. Refusing to wear a mask while in the office and away from my desk = no job for me.

If wearing a mask in public while COVID-19 is still around is the biggest sacrifice I have ever had to make, then I have led a very charmed and fortunate life.
