From here in Tucson, it looks like Montana's infection rate is far below national rate

Are many people in Montana using masks often?

1. Many state hardly have virus problems

2. Are people where you are wearing masks?

3. Nope! Hey did 3 weeks ago but for some reason May 1st the virus went away

I know it didn’t but it seems like states are going back to opening stuff. And not just red states.

4. I only go out once or twice a week.

But I have noticed a decrease in masks. I guess people think It's all over with.

I think they are letting down their guard and will bring on more infections.

In the mean time, shhhhhh. Don't let anyone know that we may have dodged the first wave with just a ripple. Yellowstone opens up next week or the week after. Then we may be hit hard.

7. Hello Ptah!

I live in Missoula. Lots of people wearing masks here. There are a few exceptions...the hardware stores, livestock feed stores and the Albertson’s. Disturbing! I have vowed to steer clear of Albertsons’s until that changes. Costco requires masks as does the two local organic grocery stores. I’m a gardener and I notice most folks shopping at the local nurseries are wearing masks.
