Wait, isn't RSV an issue BECAUSE of a lack of early immune system development in kiddos? Why does this have to be so politically driven? If you are fully vaccinated and boosted, why wear a mask? Also, I don't think anyone judges anyone else for wearing a mask in public. It is a personal choice. I think people that wear a mask may just be sensitive because they judge the 90% of the population that doesn't wear a mask. Finally, I'm all about people wearing masks if their doctor recommends it. Something tells me most people that wear a mask are asking Dr. Google or Dr. CNN.

I really wasn't trying to make it political versus common sense. The only thing that drags politics into it is folk clinging to the "i'm not wearing a chin-diaper for any reason" - to which I could care less, providing they keep their shedding to themselves.
As of today, people are not seeing a need to mask up for RSV, which is fine I suppose. My point was noting that this year that bug is on the rise, the situation could change quickly, and wondering if common sense will prevail.
Which I'm taking, from this post, to be a no.

Wearing a mask gives people a sense of control. Remember how wearing a mask was only to prevent spreading? Now we have people straight up admitting they wear one because they feel safer.
