> Working in the store, I see a couple of thousand people every day. Weekdays, with mostly locals, 80% wear masks. Weekends and holidays 50%+ tourists, mask rate drops to maybe 60%. Interestingly, 80-90 percent of those not wearing masks are the tourists - a large majority of whom are from California and Nevada.Most locals not wearing masks are ranchers and the coal miners - people working outside all day.
