Covid has affected the way we can see people. Whenever you go out to a store or school you have to wear a mask. Honestly, I am glad that they are enforcing the wearing masks rule because it is proven to have the germs spread less easily. If we can limit the number of cases by wearing a mask I am all for it. Also, we need to stay 6 feet away from people if we aren't wearing a mask. I understand that but at the same time, the germs can still spread throughout the air. All you need is to breathe it in through your lungs and you’ve got Covid. I still think that these procedures are making an impact.
