Hello everyone,

I hope you're doing well. emoticon bashful

As the discussions continue on the end of the COVID-19 lockdown and social distancing measures, you may have some questions about the use of protective face masks.

We've made a little guide to help us all learn how to properly use and wear a mask! Take a look at it below!

Have you been able to obtain any masks for you and your loved ones? Where did you find them? Do you currently or are you planning on using them every time you go out?

Feel free to share with us here! We're here to help on another, especially in this time of public health crisis.

Take care,

Courtney

I will always wear a mask even though I got my Johnson&Johnson shot. I'm not taking any chances

I received both doses of the Phizer vaccine, and have continued to wear my mask. At this stage of the game wearing the mask is for the protection of others. I may come in contact with the virus and do not get ill, or if I get ill there is a good chance it will not kill me. Exposing someone to this virus who is not vaccinated is selfish indeed. Folks this is a new type of vaccine mRNA where there is no dead virus injected in one's body. Copied directly from the CDC site in quotes that follow: "MRNA vaccines teach our cells how to make a protein—or even just a piece of a protein—that triggers an immune response inside our bodies." There are a lot of conspiracy theories out there concerning this vaccine, folks please do your research. I think that whatever risks that are associated with these vaccines, the rewards  outnumber the risks.

yes for a while while I wait for the rest of the country to catch up and get past the fake news about the vaccine.

I have had both shots from Maderna. I haven't trusted anything about this virus. It has not been long enough to know everything there is to know about it. I do not trust the vaccines but I got mine. I still wear a mask everywhere and will continue to

I’ll wear the mask out even though I’ve been vaccinated as idk about others who have been or not vaccinated. There’s no magic bullet for this virus.

I'm fully vaccinated as of April 8 and I only wear my mask when I go to church or a store.
