I think there's a bit of a mindset about face masks that once you lapse on wearing them that's you fucked it. You fell off + L + Ratio. And I don't think the general vibe of "we've collectively given up" helps on that much.
No it's fine tho you can just... start wearing masks again.

@DotMaetrix no-one has given up, and people who need to wear masks will - but there's a group I feel very sad about who wear them because it's become a mental health issue; they are scared not to. Mask-wearing is a choice, In pre-2020 we did not wear them, and I don't want to spend the rest of my life feeling enforced. It's weird enough that I normally carry one 'in case' as I would not want to cause upset.
