   @JoBlakely @FlashMobOfOne @Mikee The pulling off of the mask for sneezing has struck me as the weirdest example of, "show me you don't know what masking is for".

   I was mad all through the early years of the pandemic that there was an utter lack of any educational campaign to teach people proper hygiene habits.

   I understand why people don't know about masks. It was never part of my education. I've learned because I enjoy learning. But, most folks don't and no one seemed to want to take that on

     @FlashMobOfOne @Mikee a man on the bus today wearing a surgical mask, PULLED IT DOWN TO SNEEZE.
     Like why do you bother wearing one? Certainly it’s not for any mutual benefit.
     Oh you don’t want all your snot spray to hit the mask? You’d rather share it with everyone on the bus instead?

     Not the first time I’ve seen people pull down their mask to sneeze or cough.
