There were 3 people wearing them including myself. Probably 10 customers and 3 or 4 workers not wearing them.
It’s the same at all gas stations and places like Dollar General.
I'd love to see the numbers in hattiesburg proper because they've been reasonably hardcore about masks for a while. If they haven't had very low rates, then that would make me pessimistic about the use of masks. Be hard to figure that out though since they numbers are reported by county and not sure what other areas of Lamar and Forrest are like.
