It is official.
In the state of California it is worse to go out in public COVID negative, without a mask, than it is to knowingly and premeditatively give a sexual partner HIV.
The fines for mask compliance are higher than willful HIV transmission.
The supposed legal weight explains a bit more why I see retards wearing them where it is unnecessary. Doesn’t excuse them but some people are afraid of breaking the speed limit too.
Mask laws neatly undermine facial recognition tech the government is so good at though.
Some might find that coming in handy.
