Covid masks

[Major Tom]

So, you get vaccinated for covid and have had no relapse. Why does fool Fauchi say you still have to wear a mask? The vaccine is supposed to keep you protected! You cannot spread covid to anyone! There is not one instance of any vaccinated person getting covid since inoculated! I realize dumba$$ Fauchi is on the communist payroll in DC. They want to keep the virus going for at least 4 more years!

Since you said you're not getting the shot, what's it to you?

Even if they give mask exemptions (hard to manage), you won't have one.

They say that the shot keeps people out of the hospital. If true, then there's the end game: once the people who want shots get them, then let it rip. After that, whatever happens, happens.

Actually I said I would wait for a shot to see what side effects are happening. If I wanted now, I can't get it because I can't get an appointment for one. I DO wear a mask now in places that requeir them. So, I won't have one? Who the hell are you to tell me off! As usual, you missed the point of my post and added your repulsive reply!

I live in an apartment complex, the ages run infants to 80-I am 71. We don't wear masks, I see the kiddies outside playing-no masks.
As a bicyclist and a walker I am annoyed by all the masks I see discarded by the sidewalks and in the streets.
And I wonder how many people who wear the fashion masks bother to launder them-or sterilize them ? Yes, I know, that is very difficult and high tech, it requires something that's hard to make-boiling water.

The principle is that it's easier to attack the poster than to come up with something intelligent to say.

Geno Auriemma, coach of UConn Women’s basketball, got Covid . . . . after getting his second shot.

A principle you know and use often.

MT expressed an unambiguous intention to not get a shot. If he's since rethought that position, good for him.

Imagine you run a business that serves the public. Your employees want to see masks, until they get the shot, and they don't want to play "vaccine detective" with the public. So: leave the mask requirement in place until the people who want shots have them. Then, if the vaxes are good, case numbers, especially severe ones, drop. Then: the masks come off. If you start exempting the small fraction with the shot, mask compliance will crater long before the vax has reached saturation level.

Yeah it's not 100% protection from coming down with it, maybe spreading it too. But let's see how bad a case he gets.
