Should the federal government require people to wear face masks in public during the COVID pandemic?
In August 2020 Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden stated that, if elected, he would sign executive order requiring people to wear masks in order to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. President Donald Trump stated that he opposed a federal mask mandate and has left it up to the governors of each state to pass their own mandates.

Is this even a question?! Obviously we all need to wear masks when being more than 6 feet near each other.
@8GX2BJ74yrs4Y
Yes, except for certain medical conditions and person with said medical condition needs to have proof on them of medical condition. Like a card(ID) from doctor.

the coronavirus isnt real and should tell the truth to the people

Masks don't do jack squat! It's a set up from the US government that's lying to the public and setting up for the NWO as a source of control! They're blocking our Bill of Rights which is meant to protect the US citizens from governmental officials. Last time I remember, it was "We, the people" not "We, the government"
@8LGVTFQ4yrs4Y
No, because masks are inefficient at blocking the virus
@8M7Y9W54yrs4Y
No let people do what they want

govt doesn’t have to right to tell people how to live their lives. Business can choose to not let them in and let people naturally choose to wear the mask

No, I look at is as wearing a condom. You run the risk of catching a STD everytime you don’t wear a condom. Same thing as with wearing a mask do you think that wearing a condom should be mandated to prevent STDs? It’s a choice I think everyone should have to wear one or not wear one. Also in certain circumstances like in a hospital or retirement home it should be mandatory.
