Are you still wearing a mask when you are out?
Todavía uso una máscara cuando estoy en tiendas de comestibles, áreas concurridas, prácticamente en general. Tengo enfermedad renal en etapa tres y VIH, así que siento que debo tener mucho cuidado. Me pregunto qué sienten otros miembros del foro acerca de usar una máscara a pesar de que en su mayor parte no es obligatorio, excepto en instalaciones médicas.
I am still wearing a mask when in grocery stores, crowded areas, pretty much in general. I have stage three kidney disease as well as HIV so feel I need to be extra careful. Just wondering what other forum members are feeling about wearing a mask even though they are not mandated for the most part except in medical facilities.

I think wearing a mask is wise any time you are exposed to other people in a closed setting. That said, I am no longer wearing a mask, but I am vaccinated (recently flu & Bivalent booster). I also try to keep distance from strangers. I am a homebody, and I have avoided coronavirus infection so far.
I haven't been wearing the mask. But depending on event. I may where a mask. Definitely at Dr office and hospital. But I've had the 5 vaccine shots and flu shot.
Trabajo en el Hospital St. Joseph Sur y uso mascarilla antes de entrar al hospital y me la cambio con frecuencia. Como capellán y trabajador social, entro en zonas muy contagiosas y uso equipo de protección personal completo.
I work at St Joseph Hospital South and wear a mask before entering the hospital and change masks often. As a chaplain and Social Worker enter some very contagious areas and then full PPE.
Just when I have doctors appointments
Yes, I still wear a mask inside shops, etc., although here in the UK almost everyone else is now mask-less. I'm up-to-date with medical news, and it is clear that a significant number of people are suffering, seriously, from "Long Covid". I don't want to risk doing so.
So I resist the temptation to join the flocks of maskless sheep. I get some looks from others but (1) I don't care because I'm wearing a mask and they don't know who I am (LOL) and (2) I think their looks may actually indicate recognition (guilt) that they should be doing the same as me!
