Mr Jelinek...
I have been a Costco member for many years, and I just have to say, I am severely disappointed, and frankly appalled at the way your company is handling this current health issue we are all having to endure. Recently I learned that Costco will not allow anyone to enter their stores without a face mask. THIS is a clear violation of so many different individual civil rights that I will not even go into them all - I am sure you are aware-but when did turning your stores into a forced police state help anything? I am sending along a link to a research verified article regarding forced mask wearing:

You are NOT doing your employees ANY favors by making them wear masks for hours and hours at a time, nor is forcing your patrons to wear them while in the store. In fact, you are substantially LOWERING your employee's immune systems by enforcing that, as is every other establishment anywhere else. I realize you are not alone, but I expected so much more from a company like Costco.
I am boycotting your store until you all wake up and drop this silly restrictive rule. There are many others who feel the same and will be doing the same.
