Might as well get used to wearing a face mask. They will be needed for at least one more year. And make sure the mask you wear covers both your mouth and your nose and fits properly. That means tight enough on your face that when you talk it doesn’t pull down off your nose. Remember, face shields are not a replacement for face masks and gaiters and masks with valves are not recommended.
If you believe a mask mandate is a violation of your rights, it’s not; it is a public safety thing like seat belts. Be safe.
