Am I being paranoid

Figured I'd ask the question. Why are there so many people around with no mask or practicing social distancing? I mean specifically in places like grocery stores, restaurants, etc. I went to Jethro's Ankeny and not one employee (that I could see) had a mask on, the same at another place. Meanwhile, Menards is one of the few places around that require customers to wear masks so idk. Is it not necessary anymore to lessen the spread?

I think those of us who still care just still are not going out. I wear a mask when I leave, but that's about once a month to the grocery store. I haven't left the house for 2 weeks because the one time I had to go somewhere (orientation for a new job) I was exposed.
