To ensure that no member of the general public is ever able to say, see, the government isn’t wearing them!, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is now requiring that all of its employees wear face masks by themselves while participating in virtual Zoom meetings.
As of August 1, any DNR employee who is caught engaging in a Zoom meeting without a cloth muzzle on will be subject to reprimand or other consequences as part of an agency-wide effort to set a “good example” concerning mask-wearing.
In an email to agency employees, Preston Cole from DNR wrote that it is imperative for masks to be worn “even if you are home” while participating in a virtual meeting “that involves being seen – such as on Zoom or another video-conferencing platform – by non-DNR staff.”
“Set the safety example which shows you as a DNR public service employee care about the safety and health of others,” the email went on to state.
The move comes after Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers issued a statewide mask order demanding that all persons wear face masks whenever they are in an enclosed space other than a private residence.

“By wearing a mask while video conferencing with the general public, we visually remind folks that masking is an important part of navigating the business of natural resources during this tumultuous time,” stated DNR spokeswoman Megan Sheridan to the Kansas City Star.
Mask-wearing is about virtue signaling, not public health
