Really Ed Markey, this is the hill you decide to die on!!??
Rep. Markey can wear his mask 24/7/365 for all I care. There will be about 10% of the population that will be bitter-end holdouts for masking. That’s their choice, but the problem comes when they’re in a position of power to force it on everyone else. If we can’t go maskless now, then we never can, because transmission will not be going down to zero.
