WSGW OnLine Poll: Wearing Masks in Public (results)

(May 27 – June 3)

Wearing Masks in Public

Around the world, masks or face coverings are being worn to protect against coronavirus.   Some are worn voluntarily and some are worn based on national, state, or local laws and regulations.   Others don’t agree with wearing a maks, but do so by requirement or courtesy.

In Michigan, an Executive Order from Governor Whitmer requires your nose and mouth to be covered when you are in public enclosed spaces.

Fines will not be issued to those not wearing masks, but businesses can refuse service to people not adhering to the face-covering restrictions.
