It should be fairly simple as I still see the signs saying, "no shirt, no shoes, no service", just add "no mask" to the list. Without getting political, unless someone says everyone needs to wear masks they won't. The MI governor has said masks should be worn, but should leaves doubt. Remove the doubt, say masks are required and any business can turn anyone away for not wearing one.
We have laws to protect us all around, this isn't any different as far as I can tell. Social distancing works to an extent, but masks should be the new norm for now.

A lot of people feel the mask is only important for people in critical situations I think like Dr.'s Nurses EMP's etc...
The mask isn't just to protect you from having the virus transmitted to you its also the fact that many people who may very well be carrying it & not realize it will easily transmit it to you unknowingly
I haven't worn the Real mask yet I'm saving it for a situation like HAVING to go to the Dr office or ER etc... I will wear the other mask though in a situation like just going around people ( although I DON'T ) & don't plan on it
I think the rebellious ones that choose not to wear one just don't care but there are other issues I'm sure.
For now anyway I'm content to just continue as we have been as in STAYING HOME, no ordering restaurant food ( even to pick up )
Keeping away from my Unsafe neighbors etc....

Apparently BC has done much better than other provinces at flattening the curve but I’m not totally sure we should be loosening some of the stuff that’s planned for mid-May. I agree with the medically-related stuff: dentists, RMTs etc. However, they’re also allowing the retail sector to reopen. It’s going to be risky because a lot of people here are already not adhering to physical distancing and no one seems to know proper hand hygiene.
And of course provincial parks will open for day use but not for camping until AFTER the long weekend.
For the most part I’m going to minimize my going out. If another wave hits I don’t want to contribute to it.

Same with golfing. The post round clubhouse should still be closed though.

Dentists have to be about the worst possible scenario. Close contact for extended time periods with someone whose mouth is being cleaned = near guaranteed transmission.

I guess the issue would be more if someone is sick but asymptomatic.

Yeah the issue here is it’s unclear whether there will be a steady supply of PPE. Mark has been doing emergencies this whole time (2-3 days a week) and no one has gotten sick, possibly because they have a good process I guess the issue would be more if someone is sick but asymptomatic.
