Personally, I see no reason to wear a mask any longer. Overwhelming evidence says that a fully immunized person in the 95th percentile cannot get nor give the virus to others.
I can reasonably assume I am in the 95th percentile as I have recovered from Covid and been vaccinated, as has my whole family. But I will continue to wear the mask out of a sense of public decency and responsibility.
Kinda interesting that the people who refuse to be vaccinated are the same people who refuse to wear the mask....

I'm not sure I would make that generalization. I've seen some folks say they refuse the vaccine but still continue to mask and social distance. At least those folks are smart enough to do what they can to keep themselves and their loved ones safe. Not being vaccinated certainly isn't going to do it.
