Where I work they have issued a mask "mandate". This means that while I am in the building I am "required" to wear a mask. The mandate was issued to help reduce the possibility of spread of the COVID-19 corona virus during a national emergency.
Most of the people that I work with are great puzzle solvers. So they've taken this new requirement and done what most people are doing, adapting and adjusting their lives. There is grumbling, there is rebellion, but for the most part people comply with the new rule.
Sadly some that think this actually helps reduce the spread of the COVID-19 corona virus see others not being as strict about it as they are get upset and start to complain about the rebels. (Can we still call people "rebels"?) What I think when I hear this complaint about someone else not wearing a mask correctly or at all is that the complainer should take care of themselves and not worry about what others are doing. And if the risk is too high for them they should not be at work.
Fear is such a powerful motivator. A negative one, but a powerful one. It saddens me to see so many people fall under the spell of people using fear to manipulate and control others.
