I'd gladly wear a mask again if that would keep my son safe ;)

I did feel that asian countries were a bit more respectful in that aspect. When they were sick, the polite ones would wear a mask so they wouldnt get others sick. Not that it totally worked, but the thought is nice.

Yeah, mask-wearing never was much of an issue here. People are very much society-minded rather than individualistic, so people did it gladly if they thought it was for the greater good.
Funny thing though is that even after the mandates were lifted, lots of people kept wearing it. It took a few brave people who don't care what others think to do it for the others to follow suit.

It happened very quickly in Taiwan. At least for the younger generation and on the MRT. And the people that were sick and outside... Kind of upset me, but what can you do?
