COVID making a comeback‽
When I visited #Japan 🇯🇵 & #Singapore 🇸🇬, most people did not wear masks.
Very few wear masks in the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸 & I believe the same is true for the #UnitedKingdom 🇬🇧 too.
With fresh elections approaching in multiple countries, I doubt there will be another mask mandate, even if #COVID 2.0 ravages humanity like it did in 2020.

@darnell There are a lot of good reasons against masks... communication is a big one. Not only does it allow us to convery important information with our facial expressions, but also deaf people cant lip read.

@freemo Oh, I forgot about that! Yeah, since I do not know sign language, wearing a mask would hurt their ability to communicate. Ironically at work I opted for a face shield instead of a mask 😂 (it was too hot to wear a mask as I had to drink plenty of water & a mask would slow down my hydration process).

@darnell I cant wear masks... far far too uncomfortable for me.

@freemo As a side note if I wear a mask entering a store, security will follow me around because I am a scary black man. 😂
But if they see my smiley (potentially #COVID spreading) face, they will relax. (No, I do not have COVID, I am vaccinated & boosted & I have always tested negative)
