Recent poll results on mask usage and observation. 

https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/20...-doing-it/

I think it conforms to what most have read/ thought on this board. 

Majority of people wear or often wear a mask.   Older more likely than younger.   Dem leaning more likely than GOP leaning.

Also education and racial breakdowns.

As with all polls that ask people if they do what is generally considered a positive and then ask  if they see others doing that positive thing, the responses have to be taken with a grain of salt.  People will see themselves doing the positive more and others doing it less. Human nature.

Mitch gets religion about masks

Inconsistent messaging about this hasn’t helped (and you can rightly blame the cdc and who for being late to the bandwagon).  But if I were a Republican looking to reopen the economy, I would be all in on masks, as a way to do so as safely as possible.

Yes on both.  I think you can add the WHO to the mix. 

Generally it went this:  At first -  it doesn’t help, then, it might help, then jeez, it really looks like it helps, IT HELPS WEAR  IT” 

 I wonder how different it would’ve been from the get go if  they simply said wearing a mask helps not only in avoiding the spread to someone else; but gives you some added protection as well. May not be completely true but so what. Nothing like enlightened self interest.

 Speaking of which how bout this:  “Hey SEC football fans, you want the chance to see a football game this year?  If so, wear a mask!”

That’s a great commercial for atheism.

This is at least the second time you have made anti-religious comments.  And your comment has nothing to do with COVID.
