Potentially another Maga casualty. [View all]

We had some work done in our house and we contracted with several small Florida businessmen. About three weeks ago we noticed that all of them stopped wearing masks. Okay, we continued to wear ours inside the house, but not wearing them when we're exchanging information outside.

Well, one of them just told us he couldn't finish the job. He tried to, but it ultimately was obvious that "My wife is going into the hospital" was probably another case of Covid, because he followed it up with, "They're going to put her on a respirator."

Wow. It happens that quickly. Mask mandates removed, masks come down, but Covid marches on.
