Masks are not binary - you can become infected while wearing a mask and many people who wear masks are not wearing them correctly. With one exception, the vast majority of people are wearing masks inside stores/facilities that I have been to.

Masks minimize the risk of contracting Covid. Masks do not prevent Covid transmission. That information has been very well relayed to the public.
It is up to each and every citizen of this United States to do their part to slow the spread of the virus. The way to do that is to wear a mask indoors in public spaces, social distance always, do not congregate in large crowds and wear a mask outdoors when social distancing can not be maintained.
