Understood. It is actually a crime in many Southern states to wear a mask in public, namely unenforced misdemeanor crimes, due to the history of the Klan in the South. But cultures change.

Wow. That's a new one on me. Probably one of those laws that no one thinks of. I "think" we still have a version of the sodomy law. Take a look: Sodomy Laws. 2003!

Maybe that masks laws change temporarly to accommodate the pandemic. But that's interesting

Droplets are big and, in still air, tend to fall pretty quickly. Aerosols are <5 microns and persist longer in the air. Airborn transmission is the most problematic, with viral particles small enough to stay airborn for long periods.

Then there is variation in infectiousness. Some diseased can be transmitted by only a few viruses, others take many. It’s Not Whether You Were Exposed to the Virus. It’s How Much.
