Move somewhere that allows you to move on?

Lol. You just got into politics so why say it?
Go look at rental and home prices in Florida. Where renters and buyers are paying more than asking price just to get in. It's already happening. Although mandates are starting to drop in a lot of places now because it's a political loser so it may not be long.Move somewhere that allows you to move on?

So “move on with your life” = don’t travel on public transportation , don’t go to Disney parks, and move to a place that doesn’t require masks. And for me that would mean change jobs / careers as well.Move somewhere that allows you to move on?
Seems to me it’s way easier to to move on with my life by simply wearing a mask. Lol

I agree with you on this point. I just came back from 10 days in Hawaii, which included 6 different legs on a plane, 3 hotel stays and wearing a mask indoors all over Hawaii, because masks are *required* there (they don't entertain any freedumb anti-maskers, you wear a mask or you don't come in).
I'd say that's living life.
Wearing a mandated mask is a constant reminder that we are still under the thumb of this pandemic. For many, it is that constant reminder that makes "moving on / living life" not the same as "getting back to the way it was" which is what many people long for.I agree with you on this point.

They can long all they want. Like much of the last going on three years, what they want is not reality.

Not being able to get certain goods, staff being out sick or extra waits for medical care are far bigger reminders than a small mask.
Omicron changed it. You are still stuck on last year.
Does not change the fact that there are those who do not mind/support/like masking and those that don't for a variety of reasons. At this point 2 years into this, those perspectives are unlikely to change on either side.

It’s not hard here. But every place is different. Anyways, I was thinking what should happen rather than what is possible everywhere. If your area doesn’t allow you to move on with your life even though your boosted, well, that’s an issue.

Because it is abnormal and annoying and uncomfortable.

It's still better than wearing an oxygen mask in the ICU.

Entire planet* gets Omicron yet masks still have a benefit? Yeah ok, I suppose…
* obvious sarcasm.
If the massive amount of people getting infected with this variant, masked or not didn’t prove that they ain’t stopping jack crap? There is no amount of convincing that is going to stop people from clinging to them.
If people want to keep wearing them I see no issue. Mandating them? Getting swatted down in quite a few places.
You'd be surprised if you ever visit Japan it is the norm to wear a mask in dense populated city areas. For sure need to wear the mask during Japan's springtime where allergy and flower season is in full bloom and incredibly beautiful, cherry blossoms for example galore..
32 States "recommend" a mask
18 States + DC/PR "require" a mask
Several states requiring masks are dropping the requirement later in Feb/Mar (NJ, Connecticut, Delaware and CA for vaccinated). For those that still want to wear them, they certainly can.
The days of masks being state mandated are numbered.
Different country, different culture, different mindset.
The US will not adopt/accept masking permanently as part of our every day life post pandemic. It is simply not going to happen here.

You must live in the south then. I'm absolutely loving my cloth mask on top of a surgical one at the moment. It's cold out! Garage door froze shut again. Wearing a hat takes pressure off the ears too with masks and more comfy than a scarf! Keeps me warmer if I don't want to bother removing because of gloves on too. (All said partially in jest, but truly why I don't mind now, mask instead of scarf and it stays put!)

Nope. I went in March and September of last year and have a trip booked for May of this year.
