https://www.dayton.com/news/local/stores-open-small-crowds-makes-you-feel-little-bit-better/zSYkJ0xmxuXn7otosrtbVJ/amp.htmlShoppers stepped out on Tuesday to stretch their legs and support local retail as stores reopened for the first time since March due to the coronavirus.
... About half the guests walking into stores in the Beavercreek mall were wearing masks and most people were following social distancing.
Gov. DeWine screwed up by not requiring masks!
Beavercreek is one of the wealthier suburbs of Dayton now, with lots of new developments close to Wright State University. and even they only had half the shoppers wearing masks!
It's much worse in my area.

Apparently, there were only about 50 people there for the opening of Dayton Mall. In the photo in DDN, most of them were wearing masks. SO and I are sheltering at home until we see how it goes - our hairdresser (who's in Warren County) offered us May appointments, but we politely declined. I don't trust anybody in Warren County to sanitize, Warren County is full of Covidiots, and I can't imagine they'd limit customers or require mask use, so we'll wait another month (or more) to get our hair cut.

Maybe many others in this area are concerned about the roaming gangs of Covidiots out there?
Parents yelling at their kids, "Get inside! Covidiots are coming from up the road!" Lol.
