The new religion of masks. Today my be the rapture. 😇

Today there will be new CDC guidelines on masks outside. I didn’t know there were any other than “when in doubt wear it” and whatever the owners say.

Everyone who was disregarding mask rules are no going to be quoting chapter and verse. You watch.

But but but the CDC says.....

If they tell the vaccinated that they can unmask outside... everyone will throw down their masks.
but but but..."HE doesn't have to wear his mask... why should I?"

You know it's coming. I can't for the life of me understand that the CDC thinks they can "split the baby" on mask rules.

Say under 3% and you can lift the outdoor mask mandate only. That's going to be mostly blue states.

Indoor mask mandates should remain in effect.

Too many need coddling with this pandemic. It IS a pandemic n the vaccines are not a cure. Masks are not a cure. Used together, vaccinated or not, it’s the best defense we have to stay healthy. I just don’t get deniers or whining about where to wear a mask. Get vaccinated n wear a mask until we don’t have people dying from this terrible virus. It may be a while but it’s worth it. IMO..

If there had been correct messaging at the beginning, we would probably be past this mess.

Vaccinated folks are infinitely less likely to catch Covid, and evidence shows that vaccinated folks don't transmit the disease.
