They are taking a big chance doing this. I think we should wait until more people are vaccinated and the case load , hospitalations and death rates goes way down. |

As it stands, the state has fallen behind on vaccinations due to the storm, and the collapse of their power and water systems in much of the state. The rest of the nation doesn't need to shoulder another spike because some governor is caving to ill-conceived RW pressure. This is still an ongoing pandemic emergency. |

Open all businesses fully but still mandate the masks except where they specifically interfere with the conduct of business (like as a diner in a restaurant).The dropping of the mask mandate will kill thousands unnecessarily. |

If they were allowed to vaccinate that would be one thing, but instead they're doing it the typical American way.There are only 4 groups allowed to vaccinate in Texas. |

Do you disagree with my assertion that this changed provision will cause thousands of needless deaths?There have been many articles over the last year showing that it is almost impossible for stores to enforce mask requirements if the state makes the requirement optional for store management rather than a mandate. |

Do we even have a mask mandate in NYS or is it just the establishment's choice. BTW, while I definitely believe in masks indoors I absolutely NEVER wear one outside and laugh when I see people with masks on outdoors, especially when someone is driving SOLO in vehicles!! |

I think the people driving in the personal cars alone by themselves are ridiculous. The walking down the street masked up in open air I don’t think is necessary either. I encounter more people walking down the street in the Bronx that are masked up than not. |

But I have to admit, if I have it on and it is comfortable, and I am just going a block or two from somewhere I had it on and will have to put it back on, in a couple of minutes, it usually isn't worth taking it off. I'm sure people see that wonder. |

Do we even have a mask mandate in NYS or is it just the establishment's choice.My understanding is NY has a mandate. It is not enforced, in the sense of a store owner being given a summons, but it gives more authority than basic trespassing law for a store manager to toss out an unmasked customer. In the last year, in many cases of states without mask mandates, as tore owner could not get police cooperation in kicking out an unmasked customer. As for outside, I think the density of people on the sidewalk is less where you are than where I am. I've encountered tens of thousands of people (crossing paths within less than 10 feet) outside in the last year. |

No. Plenty of people have gotten covid without being exposed to a covid-infected individual maskless for 15 minutes or more. Longer is more dangerous, but short exposure is not danger-free.My wife's second cousin was fine last Nov 25 and deceased by Dec 25. She and her husband flew from AZ to PA, taking all precautions, socialized with her husband's children, and returned to AZ. The children did not have covid; she and her husband got it; she died. She was 74 and in good health. No hint of her having been exposed for 15 minutes or more to an infected individual. |
