It should have been a personal choice from the start

Richard Peil

Haven’t worn one yet and wont

Pam W

They never worked in the first place and I never wore one.

Rick Allen

YES but I threw them away a long time ago, these mandates were all wrong from the beginning! Horrible communistic, socialist injustice! Long term mask wearing weakens your immune system. The shutdowns hurt Us far worse than the virus itself! I never got it! My 84 year old mother did but NO symptoms!

Jessi Johnson Horn

Haven't been wearing a mask for months. I actually follow the science.

Kevin Crabtree

threw them away a year ago

Robert Northrup

The only reason I wore one was to keep my friends and neighbors from having their businesses shut down.

Oregon had some of the best stats for covid because of the mask mandate and it's not over yet. People will screw it up.

Masks don't work

Charles Lingle

I do not think this is over.

Wayne Purves

It is not over with all the new varients and infection rates rising again !

Tim Collins

After I go into a place that has them for you when you walk in, I just put them back into the box that I got them out of for the next person.

Never! As we have learned, pandemics are easier to start now, So I will definitely keep the many masks I have.... cloth, blue hospital, duck-face... all of them!!

Lynn Huntley

We may need them again. Also, it is smart to wear them in the flu season. Look at how much less flu we had during the pandemic. Also, the mask is not the only safeguard. We were (supposedly) washing our hands more, keeping a safe distance from others and staying away from others while sick.

Good masks are still recommend, just not required in most situations. I work in healthcare and we are still required. Why take unnecessary chances? Do you drive at night with your lights off?

I'm keeping the good ones for dust masks, if nothing else. The cloth ones I've already discarded.

Gabe West

It will probably be reinstated before long unfortunately, masks should not be worn it has been linked to pnomonhia

Shauntae Parsons

I agree

Sussie Due

No Based on the fact that Brown has proven she can't be trusted about dropping mask mandates. I expect her to reinstate it just to get her name back in the news. I hope I am wrong.
