Lots of people around here are wearing masks in groups (myself included). Lots of people are not congregating in large groups (myself included). Most people I know are vaccinated (myself included -- I am scheduling my booster shot next week).
I posted some stats about masks a while back and they are pretty telling. Masks actually do help, but people need to wear the right ones and wear them properly. Improperly worn masks are not effective.
