I’m sat here in our local Uncle Russ coffee shop watching people leave …

…and in every single case, they put in their masks to go outside, where a fresh easterly wind is blowing. They’ve been in here, inside, with friends, with coffee, and no masks on. Then masks on to step outside.

This is definitely in the class of “things I don’t get”. Is it really possible that people don’t know — whatever your view in masks — that there is exactly zero evidence that Covid is caught outdoors? That is, “the science” tells us that. 

So why do they sit indoors, next to others, maskless and put on masks to go outside? The only reason I can think of is that it’s mandated for anywhere public. So they’re just following the law. Right? But then they’re supposed to wear masks indoors as well, only taking them off to drink. In between sips there’s supposed to have the mask back on. Yet they ignore that. And follow the rules outdoors

Weird. And silly. And I don’t get it. 

ADDED: Here they all are queueing outdoors, all masked…


Or just out walking …
