OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Govenor Tony Evers’ mask mandate is now extended until March 20. Evers signed that emergency order Tuesday.
It’s been somewhat of a hot-button, controversial topic – wearing a face mask. But it’s also now something that has become a part of our everyday routine.
“I remember early in the pandemic when I had to start wearing a mask for an entire shift, you know, 12 to 24 hours sometimes at a time,” Dr. Brad Burmeister, emergency room physician at Bellin Health said. “They are uncomfortable, they can be really sore on your ears, it makes you feel like it’s hard to breathe but, you know, eventually I noticed that I just got used to it.”
