A member asked:
How dangerous is it to see non masked people in stores? i was within about 4 feet of one today in the store (not by choice) but trying to stay turned away from him and wearing a filtered mask. do i have the chance of becoming ill?

Danger to everyone: An unmasked person is a danger to everyone especially in close quarters or inside. What you experienced is being experienced by many people. The messaging from our leaders is not good and that is why you had the experience. Everyone must wear a mask. But you did the right thing and is what I do. Turn away from the person without a mask, walk away, stop, get no closer. I think you will be ok
