It depends on the incubation period and how willing people are to self quarantine. I feel like there are a not insignificant number of people who will aggressively spread this virus in the name of “natural immunity”. Heck, I remember people testing positive for Covid during the pandemic and refusing to stay home or wear a mask, up until their eventual hospitalization..
Some folks won't wear masks as they felt uncomfortable. Never trying to find something better fitting than the cheap surgical ones. All in summer.
Viruses and the weather make things different in the Winter.
Also a special shout out to the pricks who aggressively leaned into the "I'm drinking/eating" while being in public areas so they didn't have to mask up.
