| I don't see people taking off masks in stores in the stores I patronize. That's what surprised me about your post. Earlier today I was in a large store in midtown and saw someone with their nose uncovered. It took under a minute for a sales clerk to tell them to cover their nose and they did. I have only seen one (seemingly crazy) person, in the Trader Joes in Chelsea, take their mask off and refuse to put it on, and he ended up getting thrown out after throwing his food at the employees. I don't think this is going to be a major issue among theatregoers in the early months. The difference between this and phones is that the producer's show is not subject to closure for phone issues like it will be for non-compliance with the monitoring requirement that will be in place. Personally, I would not go to the theatre without vaccination. By the time we have theatre, everyone will have had the opportunity to be vaccinated. The masks for the first few months is in anticipation of protecting the unvaccinated stragglers on the possible theory that a vaccinated person can infect an unvaccinated person. Once we reach herd immunity, our concern for these people will wane (as it has for everything else). This is how I see it. YMMV obviously. | |
