Wondering if I should start masking again because the Super K strain has resulted in an earlier flu season and easier transmission. Of course I’m getting the shot but still.

I really don’t feel like getting seriously sick

do it, especially if you take public transport or go to crowded places

I see lots of people with masks on, it's no biggie
