But I know that even that is not a safe thing to request and many planners will not support it.
This is something that my very wonderful local fiber / craft store does very well -- they have mandatory masking on Mondays, all staff wear masks, masks are mandatory for classes. The other day I popped in and noticed they were asking everyone to mask, because someone had called ahead and requested it. love it!
I have friends who are immunocompromised and we've talked about these things, so if I didn't pull on a mask, I would feel SO guilty. It's the good kind of peer pressure.

This is such a good idea!
Ah, I see. I appreciate that you ask when you see a mask! <3
Honestly, if people would offer that and abide by it, it would be amazing.
