Here in Georgia it’s not uncommon to see people wear a mask during March and April. Because of the insane amounts of pollen. It doesn’t affect me, but it is common long before the pandemic. Now that we are getting to May, I don’t get it. I’ve never worn a mask outside and never will.

As I've related before - I have COPD and have suffered from severe respiratory infections for the past five years. About five years ago, when I lived in the country, I began wearing masks when I mowed my lawn (about 3 acres of lawn + clear areas) It was very dusty and debris filled, so I ordered a whole batch of them to wear while in those conditions.

Three years ago I developed a constant cough which I could not control. So when I went to the grocery store - or anywhere I'd be around people) I wore my mowing mask to help ease other's minds when we were close together.

So I always had a good stock of masks when the pandemic arrived.

note - My cough has been cured as of this January after a week's stay in ER - had major fungal infections in my lungs which they finally cleared up - am now on regular immunology infusion therapy every 6 weeks.
