I just saw this post. There actually are health experts who disagree on this issue. It has been a big unknown from the beginning. I don't believe in silencing, judging or shaming anyone over their feelings on it. Wherever I am, there is a mask around my neck. When passing by the folks with masks, mine goes up. When passing by the folks with no masks, mine goes down. But, there is no pleasing everyone. I got stared down a few months ago by a couple who weren't wearing masks because I was. Funny thing, I agree with them on the issue. I just agree with being respectful to others more. People should be free to do what they feel is best and stop insisting everyone agree with them or be damned...and, of course, have respect for each other along the way. This is my opinion on it. I respect that yours is different.
