You wear a seat belt in a car, a helmet when on a motorcycle, why not protect your self and those around you in this situation?

The Delta variant is 40% more infectious. Allowing it to spread allows even more of a chance for it to mutate into even more infectious, deadly forms that infect children and infants at a higher rate and which an prove impervious to vaccines. We are ignoring basic tenets of biology and epidemiolog

The patriotic thing to do is to protect the unprotected for everyone’s benefit. That is for the young under 12 and the uniformed. Science always will win over big. Mouths.

It has been scientifically proven that wearing a mask cuts down on spreading germs. Last year incidents of the regular flu were markedly much smaller because people were wearing masks. I don't like wearing a mask any more than anybody else but I do it to protect myself and others

We went back to "normal" too soon. Delta was already on the rise and that should have been enough to tell the health authorities we needed to continue with precautions. Get the vaccine or stay sequestered from the rest of us.

The health and safety of everyone require we wear masks to rid the world of covid. We need to follow science and get vaccinations and wear masks. It won't be forever unless people don't do their part.

Rules and laws are meant to protect the public. Face masks are proven to protect us from covid 19 and other contagious diseases.

Delta spreads easier than the original strain, appears to be making the unvaccinated sicker than the original strain, and is breaking through vaccines. Our hospitals are already strained. Putting on a mask just isn't that hard.

I do not want to catch covid-19 and If I get it I do not want to be responsible for making someone else sick and maybe die from it that would make me a murder.

Why are vaccinated people required to mask? Because they can get COVID! If you're scared vaccinate, mask up and shut up! The breakthrough cases are allowing the virus to mutate just like people not completing their series of antibiotics are creating drug resistant superbugs.

Because masks do not help, beside they are counting everything as covid when it is not.

Delta Variant is more contagious but is less harmful than a cold. Commie Kate absolutely has no right to mandate anything. Not to mention the fact that there is absolutely no evidence that face masks have any effect on virus containment.

I feel it should be each person's choice. If they say the mask keeps others from getting sick from me and I'm not sick then why should I have to wear one. Plus it isn't healthy to breathe all your carbon monoxide from wearing a mask.

For one, I got covid while wearing a mask everywhere. I don't see the proof of it working if cases continue to rise. Two, if this vaccine is suppose to work( it doesn't) then why are we taking a step back. Three. How many of these covid tests are false positives? It's all bs.

At least 90% of hospitalizations are people not vaccinated. The science is being ignored.
