About 1,000 Health Care Workers Petitioned Arizona Governor to Make Face Masks Mandatory in Public Places
David Schulzinger started this petition to Martha McSally and
Petition Title:
Make masks mandatory in Public Places throughout Arizona
Governor Ducey,
I find it unacceptable that your answer is that business must continue and that we need to learn to live alongside Covid. I find it unacceptable that you are not mandating masks. I find it unacceptable that you’re not even supporting masks. We need to require masks in all public areas.
We need to pump the brakes on any further reopening until you have met CDC reopening requirements, which, incidentally, we HAVE NOT. The last thing we need is our fellow Arizonans out and about, breathing in each others’ air conditioned recirculated air, not wearing masks. Asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic spread of this virus has been shown as a source of community transmission. This is true whether you find it politically convenient or not.
Masks should be worn by all first responders, all medical staff, and all government employees, including you. You should be leading by example. I want you to use your platform to normalize the wearing of masks in public and mandate it. You should do everything in your limited power to limit spread and save lives. We need to be wearing masks. The data is clear. I demand that this policy be enacted….read more:

djc, Masks are very uncomfortable, especially with the summer heat that is upon us. Also, let’s not forget the trapped carbon dioxide that will be rebreathed. That being said, masks can slow down the spread of coronavirus from anyone who has the virus. Masks are really a protection for others from that cough or sneeze that will spew droplets of coronavirus into the air. Diligent hand washing, not touching face, mouth, eyes, nose without first fully washing hands with soap and water, and physical distancing of at least 6 feet….I would have more distance than that…maybe 13 feet…are the most reliable ways to cut down the spread of the virus.
