Do we have a universal definition of what "wearing a mask" means exactly?
IOW, does mask wearing in the context of this and other studies apply to having a mandate in place vs. not having one in place, and then, what defines mask wearing? Is it anytime I am not in my house? Not when I am outside by myself but anytime I am around others, inside or outside?
I had some family members come in my mom's house this weekend and wore masks, but my mom and I didn't wear one. I go out walking by myself and don't wear one, but when I go to the store or in a place with people I don't know - in side or out - I do wear one. I assume I qualify as wearing a mask, but am not altogether certain.
