I would not have thought to comment on a common sense measure such as this one until seeing comments from a very vocal minority who do not believe in public health. Please keep that in mind, especially as many of the people who have commented here are not even  residents of the State of Virginia. 

I grew up in Virginia, my elderly parents live in Virginia and hundreds of other people who I care deeply for. There is undisputable evidence that masks lower the risk of COVID-19 transmission at this time. Politics should not be taken into consideration over this potentially life-saving measure. Mandate masks, protect workers.
