maybe it depends where you live, I live in northern virginia i.e. DC, go into a grocery store or something most employees and about half the customers are masked up. I know that there is a big cultural difference between the north and south, especially in terms of down there people don't live on top of each other like they do here. But its not exactly uncommon, at least again in high population areas

As a person currently in the DMV, I can confirm this is absolutely not true. Especially in NOVA, they dropped masks earlier than the rest of us sad sacks in DC/MD.

In some of the poorer areas in MD you might find 10% masked at most, I’ll give you that, otherwise the only way your story makes sense is you’re shopping at a Whole Foods attached to a hospital for old people lol

In Arlington you still see a lot, especailly in grocery stores. I am not talking about mandates, and dropping mandates, I am talking about voluntary masking if that makes sense
