While You Are at It, You Might as Well Conduct an Improper Census

Goldberg's Bagels, has recently started opening Motzei Shabbos.  (Saturday evening after sundown)

We were going to pick up Nat from a show, and decided to pick them up a bagel and lox and avocado, as well as a a nosh for the rest of us.

When we got there, we were literally the only people wearing masks.

It was f%$#ing Orthodox Covid super-spreader central there.

What is wrong with those people?  Were they even listening during Parshat Ki Tisa?^*

This is a profoundly disturbing state of affairs.

^*Exodus, chapter 30:^†

11. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12. "When you take the sum of the children of Israel according to their numbers, let each one give to the Lord an atonement for his soul when they are counted; then there will be no plague among them when they are counted.
13. This they shall give, everyone who goes through the counting: half a shekel according to the holy shekel. Twenty gerahs equal one shekel; half of [such] a shekel shall be an offering to the Lord.
14. Everyone who goes through the counting, from the age of twenty and upward, shall give an offering to the Lord.
15. The rich shall give no more, and the poor shall give no less than half a shekel, with which to give the offering to the Lord, to atone for your souls.
16. You shall take the silver of the atonements from the children of Israel and use it for the work of the Tent of Meeting; it shall be a remembrance for the children of Israel before the Lord, to atone for your souls

^†Also Shmuel II - II Samuel - Chapter 24, but I am not going any further down the rabbit hole.
