They are wearing their masks below their noses. And most of those doing so are men. I read something the other day that said the virus is most likely to enter through the nose. Are the people you've been seeing wearing their masks correctly?
 

they aren't here either. there's a lot of whining about them being hot & they can't breathe. since they have healthy lungs i have no sympathy for them. what's odd is that management is ignoring the issue & allowing the employees to run around like that. if people can't manage to suck it up & just wear their masks & follow the mandates we are never gonna be rid of this. and innocent people will needlessly die because of the selfishness of others.

It is the same here.

I would estimate that approx. 1/3 of the people that I see leave their nose exposed.

I also notice it quite often when I'm watching people on various news programs.

I try to keep my distance from everyone and do what I can to protect myself.

I'm seeing more of that in newspaper and video reports, but not much in person, thank goodness.

That's a damned shame Marci ! Well you stay safe but it must be unnerving to have to work in that environment.
 
their hot and make me feel like I can't breathe. I sometimes put it under my nose. I'm not trying to be a jerk, just have difficulty breathing with it on.
 
A lady walked in the post office today with her mask below her nose. She passed fairly close to we customers who were in pick up line. When she got to the window for others, I heard the postal clerk tell her she had to pull her mask up. The lady apologized and complied.
 
I often wondered if they (Congress) could make it a federal law to wear a mask under special circumstances and with omissions.
 
Ticks me off to no end....its the same here....I shouldn't be doing this but I look them straight in the eye and shake my head left and right....
yeah, gonna get punched in the face soon, lol....good thing I only go out like once every two weeks.
 
My experience is this: 95 percent at least are wearing their masks more or less properly. A very few have it below their nose, either because it's slipped or because they just don't care. Some, not many, have it down around their chin. I see very few people without a mask. Last trip to the grocery store I saw one guy with no mask. Whether he had one on when he entered or they chose not to challenge him, I don't know. Whatever. And yet the numbers increase.
 
I have a very difficult time breathing with a mask on.
Actually, I have breathing difficulties without a mask too.
Do I wear a mask anyway? You bet I do.
I very seldom leave the house because of it, but that's just the way it goes.

I have a very hard time listening to pitiful excuses for not doing the right thing.
