I did a return journey on LU today, involving five trains in each
direction. It was very noticeable that a significant minority, maybe around
25%, of the passengers weren't masked. Most of them weren't wearing a mask
at all, not just wearing them incorrectly as before (ie, as chin-straps).
Until last week, nearly all women wore masks, correctly covering their
noses and mouths, but now many women have ditched their masks. And these
were reasonably busy trains. As there's no enforcement, mask wearing is
effectively now optional and declining.
I did wear my mask as I'm law-abiding, but don't see much point in it.
