   @dangillmor It's such a terrible situation.

   At the at risk of offering internet advice, you might consider doing a saccharin fit test on your masks before heading in

     I have jury duty next week.

     Covid is running rampant in the Bay Area.

     I'm at higher risk.

     I will wear a mask, and attempt to distance myself from others. (I wear a mask in all indoor settings.)

     I revere jury duty (though I've never made it past voir dire).

     It absolutely sucks that crowded jury rooms don't have mask mandates.

     Masks aren't perfect (or close to perfect) protection. But they are vastly, vastly better than nothing.
