Is this influence of local Rabbonim or a generally cohesive community? I heard R Hanneman at the beginning of pandemic, he was very forceful.

Also, when we say “wear masks”, I presume it is a shorthand for responsible behaviors, not a literal thing. One is better off not going where it is risky than sitting in a crowded room in a flimsy mask.
