Stay at home and get deliveries

If you live in an area where that is possible then I guess that is fine.  Where I live you cannot get groceries delivered to your home.  We do not even have the pick up for groceries at Walmart yet. Supposedly we are suppose to be getting it toward the end of May or first of June.  I doubt I will use it though.  I want to pick my own stuff out. And everyone keeps talking about you have to have a time slot and can never get one. I don't know if that will every get any better or not.  But you have to leave home for that. They bring it to your car.

I just don't get it.  I went to the store yesterday and no one hardly was wearing a mask or practicing social distancing and people were being rude.  I went in the early afternoon which as long as they have a senior hour in the early morning that is the only time I would go from now on.  People were leaning over me to get stuff instead of waiting a minute.  It was awful and definitely distressing.
Maybe it would help if you at people from a more accurate set of lenses. People, generally, are unreasonable hostile animals...in part.

Not sure where you live but where I am it's mandatory you can't enter a store without one.  There are markings on the floor where to distance yourself.  You must live in a red state where they aren't taking it as seriously.  That's the problem when you don't have national leadership and guidelines.

    Air quality is in question,
    Wear a mask.
    What do you have to lose?

lol Hilarious how people always have to bring politics in to it.  There are NOT markings on the floor to stay 6 feet away from people.  That would be impossible.  At the registers there are but not through out the store where she was complaining that people were "reaching" over her.  As far as the mandatory to have to wear a mask if you are in public you must live in a slave state. There are only about 7 states that have a MANDATORY rule saying you have to wear a face covering.  SEVEN!  So you are in the minority.

And as far as the markings at the registers they are basically worthless.  There are never over 1-2 registers open so everyone ends up clogged up at the front any way.

Countrygirl12, it is people like you that think like 45, by you not wearing a mask can make other people sick but to each their own.  If it is hype than why is the CDC and other doctors say to wear them and ask us to stay home and people close their business just to lose money?  I don't understand your thinking, but you do you.

I wear my mask to the stores.  I think it adds a layer of protection and I also don't want anyone to get sick from me.  It doesn't hurt me to wear one...except my glasses fog over a lot.  Littering in any way makes me want to hit something.

 To wear or not to wear!  That really seems to be the question right now.  I've heard both sides of the argument and I'm really not sure which side is correct.  What I don't like is either side berating the other.  If you feel more comfortable wearing a mask, you should definitely wear one.  If you are set against wearing a mask then don't go to places that require it.  Let's just all be nice and respect each other opinions and we can get thru this!!

And it is people like you that are so full of ignorance that make this so entertaining.  "I" cannot make any one sick.  "I" do not have this "virus" so therefore "I" cannot spread it. ::)

I don't understand YOUR thinking.  The CDC said that the ONLY people who need to wear a mask are people who are sick.  The mask will not keep you from getting the virus. It will only keep you from spreading it.  You cannot spread something you do not have.  WHO also said the same thing.  The only people who need to wear a mask are people who are sick.  Well I say people who have this virus need to STAY HOME and not go out with their mask on.  That little thin piece of material is not going to keep you from getting anything. But as you say - to each his own.

I can only assume you either draw welfare, disability, or are retired and drawing social security.  We do not all have that luxury.  Some people either work or do without.  And FYI a lot of people do not qualify for unemployment nor the extra $600.  So stay in your fear monger world. But you are in the minority.  I saw on the news a little while ago where yet another state basically has revolted and a judge said the gov stay at home mandate is unconstitutional and is NULL and VOID.  YOU are free to stay at home.  The rest of the country is going to live their lives.  But you continue to hide and believe everything the lying media spoon feeds you.

lol Not going to happen.  The fearing mask wearers cannot just wear their mask and go on with life.  They have to make snide comments and put down people who do not wear them.  I have never said anything to anyone or about anyone for wearing a mask.  You want to wear it then fine - wear it.  I agree if a store requires a mask then either wear one or do not go to that store. I do not go to any store often, only if I need something, but I am not going to live in fear and do without because I am too afraid to go to the store. 

My state does not have a mandate stating you have to wear a mask.

There is alot going on now with all this, but no mask will protect you from a virus. Virus' germs are so tiny and being in good health to keep your immunity level high would be a start. Remember you are what you eat. Plus supplements are helpful look into using zinc, vitamic C and vitamin D to combat this too.

Crazy, right? It's those same people that go on cruises during this time too....just feel immune, until they get COVID 19 - then it's not so funny anymore.....if people don't take it seriously than the second wave will hit

People don't seem to care about the virus anymore.  I have never gone out much.  I don't like crowds to begin with.   So if I  go to look for plants or even any shopping I just wait until there isn't many people and I don't browse much.   If you can do curbside pick up.  Would ease it a bit for you.  I don't like others doing my shopping esp. for groceries.
