Narrative:
Probably about 15 passengers were not wearing their masks correctly over their nose and mouth during boarding and during the flight. They would comply briefly then take them down. State X is a covid hot spot and I feel like the safety of complying customers and crew is compromised with them not following cdc guidelines. We made announcements and is what we were supposed to. We reminded the passengers. Other guests were upset as they wanted to be safe and were not. We need a hard line of compliance. No mask or a mask purposely worn incorrectly needs to not fly until the pandemic is over. Any medical reasons need to be addressed before boarding and by medlink.
