In reply to the discussion: DU Poll: Will you wear a mask if fully vaccinated? [View all]GulfCoast66
(11,949 posts)29. It's situational. Currently my grocery store ask that I wear a mask. So I do.
If they stop asking then on weekdays I certainly wont. On weekends when it is crowded I might.
Weve been eating out in distanced restaurants well before we were vaccinated if the staff wore masks. If the restaurant does not ask I wear a mask I wont. If its super crowded I might pass.
Super crowded bar? Havent been to them in 20 years so not an issue. Same with concerts.
The main thing I will do is keep looking at the data. Currently if vaccinated there is a 1 in 10,000 chance of catching Covid. A pretty much one in one million chance of dying. Im fine with those odds. If that starts to change my reaction might as well.

This is false, vaxed isn't inoculated and small children can still get the virus.
