This is an interesting poll to take.
In my area it's rare to see anyone inside a store without a mask...maybe 1 in 20 right now. There's a county requirement here.
I still haven't SEEN anyone wearing a mask. Seriously.
Of course, I live in a little hick town out in the @$$-end of nowhere in the back woods of an undeveloped Canadian province. We aren't exactly a tourist hot-spot.
This is kind of funny given some of the personalities we've been dealing with on the forums...

With more than 55,000 deaths.
Estimated deaths in the US in the influenza season of 2017-2018 is between 12,000 and 61,000 according to the CDC
People comparing this to a really bad flu need to add a few more "really"s to that eg. a really, really, REALLY bad flu.
That's the difference between an elected official and someone who actually studied and learned about the job they do.
Being a governor requires nothing but some charisma and psychopathy.
