My nephew and his wife and 2 kids all have just recovered after 4 weeks of covid. My other nephew who was staying with them has been in the hospital for 10 days fighting blood clots in his lungs from covid.

Just finished a necessary 3,500-mile road trip and some areas EVERYONE is wearing a mask and in others NO ONE is wearing a mask. Makes me think mask wearing is more of a regional issue than a Conservative/Liberal or Repub/Democrat issue.

We wore masks and more importantly limited our contact with people while on the road. I think masks can help eliminate a certain percentage of viral spread BUT can also create a FALSE sense of security - they're not a magic shield.
