As long as there is no human within 6 feet distance, you can walk anywhere without a mask. ✌
Aerosols will get diluted in the air. (Viral load in aerosols is not enough to cause infection)

You can walk without mask. Once you return back wash & sanitizer your hands and legs. Wear mask when family gathers together.
