I know people who were obese who put on 20# during Covid. Not helping themselves.
All the shots and masks are just a temporary measure if you don't take care of yourself.

(21,819 posts)My guess is less than 10% masked among the customers. Maybe 50% masked among the employees.
The local hospital is full with Covid patients, more than 80% unvaxxed. Other hospitals in the region are also full, so there is no room for overflow. Covid deaths are up. Way up.
Folks just don't seem to care.
