Serdy: Wearing a mask in Apache Junction 'is up to the individual'
Posted
I recommend that you keep a mask on hand, in your vehicle or office in case you visit a business or other facility where they are required.”

In response to questions as a result of the governor’s announcement yesterday giving localities flexibility in addressing how communities address the use of masks:
I’ve stated this is up to the individual.
If you feel you’re at risk, stay home.
I also hope that folks don’t get upset at businesses that require PPEs, as that is their right also.
People need to take responsibility for their own lives.
I think it’s sad that some put their safety in the hands of a mayor, councilmember or governor.
We must learn to live in the modern world on our own eventually.
There are always going to be risks and illnesses out there and we’ll get through it.
Also, everyone is essential and every job is essential to providing for a household.
I recommend that you keep a mask on hand, in your vehicle or office in case you visit a business or other facility where they are required.
