The dynamics of this are fascinating. I spent a maskless day in the office last week, right after restrictions were lifted. One Japanese guy took off his mask to talk to me, then put on his mask to go back to his desk and work alone. I then walked into a meeting with 10 people where I was the only unmasked one at the start of the meeting, but by the end three others had removed theirs.
