Jay, that's so funny. Now that everyone else has masks, you might as well take your mask and glasses off. I notice you didn't have gloves on. Well done.
A very nice-looking airport! I notice most people are unaware that the wet membranes on their eyes are a good droplet catcher and source to the back of the nasal passages and thence into the lungs. I also notice that they are wearing gloves! Silly people; gloves but no goggles.

With them wearing masks, their droplets will be caught, so you'll be safe. You can pretend to be courageous by not wearing a mask. By wearing a mask in the early days, you might have helped limit the spread by encouraging others to get masks.
>... and maybe even avoiding the infection himself.

The point about gloves is that they can't get through skin.
