I’ve got slack on masking after keeping it up for so long. Wondering if it would be weird to start wearing one again during flu season.
Of course it’s not weird to not want to get sick but you know, it’s not the norm to wear face masks in Australia like it is in Asia. And it’s rare to see them now. People would probably stare, assume you were sick, or it might provoke the cooker type.
Then again I really don’t think I’d fare well with the flu.
Please do. We wear. No stares.
