The chilul hashem is unimaginable, besides the obvious health concerns. What is so hard to wear a mask ??

We did not eat, did not sleep. We went into the bathroom to drink because we were afraid to remove our masks.

But we're the crazy ones ::).

Ironically, the bathroom is probably the worst place to go.

Obviously. But they'll do (or claim to do) what has visibility chivalry rather than anything that makes sense (for example ask the people that are maskless to wear a mask, rather than terrorize them - probably to get a response that they have all recovered from COVID-19)

Wished that 1 airline would make a maskless section (like the good old smoking section at the back of the plane), for all those who don't want to wear a mask. Let them accomodate the vaxed, recovered, or others that chose to think on their own.
Will never happen during Harris's term...

I flew Ethiopian five times this month and nobody gave a flying flamingo about masking. Was like the good old days.

Yes. Many people find it hard to wear a mask for extended periods of time. It's even harder when in their minds they are convinced that there is no health benefit to it, as they are immune (either because they recovered from COVID-19 and have antibodies, or because they were vaccinated).

That is pure conjecture as no-one being forced to wear a mask has actually experienced the latter.

The chilul hashem is worth the hardship, if it’s too hard don’t fly.

Just read the comments and you will get the sentiment of the general population to Orthodox Jews due to COVID non compliance.

The chilul hashem is worth the hardship, if it’s too hard don’t fly fly in J, you're not likely to be bothered (or bother anyone) there for not waring a mask while you sleep in your lie-flat seat.

Hope these people don’t expect to be served or waited on.

That’s my alter ego, he’s boring.

Also, I don’t talk to people on the street during COVID, it’s מראית עין
