FWIW Iowa hasn't mandated masks yet; some of the cities and counties
have tried and legally can't because of the way the phrasing at the
state level was made/issued. (I don't understand the details so just a
skim of the information.)
Anyway, along the compliance/non-compliance thread, it was announced
this week Hy-Vee (regional grocery store) will be handing out masks
starting next week to customers without. Not quit certain if they will
lbe requiring or 'highly suggesting'.
I'll admit to being one of those customers not wearing a mask -- maybe
40% if us were not. I've carried it with me. This week did wear the
mask as did just about all the other customers -- maybe 10% if that high
did not. Also note this is the week _before_ the policy goes in to
effect -- there were a couple of small (8½x11") notices taped by the
entry but nothing 'in your face' like a giant placard.
Seems to reinforce the softer "it would be a good idea because" approach
works better than the 'rule with a sledgehammer' option,
