No it doesn’t. When others see people wearing a mask now, they think your either paranoid, virtue signalling, or have an health condition and therefore hava a higher threat model.
Really? At this point when see someone wearing a mask I assume they have a cold/flu/covid and they're being prosocial...
Which is very much a shame. There seems to be some traffic on a couple of the provincial subs on Lemmy.ca though.
