If I was to wear a mask in there, I'm stopping what percentage of possible transmission? Well, the figure is so small it's not even worth noting. Irrefutably, there is no sane cost/benefit to me wearing a mask into those places, as nobody else is doing so.

The cost is practically zero, though.

Seems like a pretty big benefit to me, but ymmv.

If everyone starts wearing them again, I'm happy to do so. I like hiding in plain sight. But if there's no possible benefit to doing so, and there isn't when everyone else has eschewed them, I needn't wear one.

A few weeks ago, I noticed almost no one wearing them at the grocery store. The other day it was almost everyone. I suspect it was just different staff making different choices. But the only downside for me is that I tend to get a little warm so why not keep wearing it for my benefit and for the benefit of anyone else who is still doing so.
