Early on, those more at risk had several places to shop for groceries, if they had no access to online methods.

We had Costco, Natural Grocers and Fred Meyer... Now, however, only about half of Fred Meyer’s staff are wearing masks; the rest having a “doctor’s note” excusing them from any such measures.

Masks are uncomfortable for everyone, not just you. Please think of others at least as often as you think of yourself. The life you save may be a relative — a teacher, a first responder, the cashier who just rang up your groceries!
