No, in December. He had to do his internship this past summer as everything was cancelled the summer of 2020. So, this Fall he graduates. People are flying in for his graduation.

Congratulations to your family. I hope everyone enjoys a wonderful celebration.

The mask wearing in this area is just over the top. Enough already. If you want to wear one, go ahead. But it's not necessary to mandate that everyone wear one. I was in Towson over the weekend and it was so nice to see people not wearing masks but also being respectful of personal space.

Personal space of a few feet is not enough.

DP. Nothing will ever be enough for you. You can't see it, people suffering from anxiety can't see their own anxiety. That is the reality of anxiety sufferers, to perceive everything that you can't control as a threat and try and control it. The truth is that until a family member gives you an ultimatum to seek medical help or leave them, you will not seek help to get better.
Ask yourself this question, if you were not masking 5 years ago and you knew you could pick up a deadly virus even then, why are you insisting on masking now?

Cases are down to 45.7 out of 100,000. We are on track things are looking good!

You're still allowed to wear a mask even without a mask mandate. To see this in action, travel to any other county in MD except PG.

Duh. I know that. But it's not as protective for either party. Hence the shopping before all the other people's masks come off.

How close to people to you get at the Giant?? Whole Foods? If you are so scared - go early to any store - you will be alone.

Also - there are many resources to help you with your mental health issues on Covid. If you are obese or smoker - you can also get help.

+1

And if you have reason to believe you might be sick or infectious, why in the hell are you going to the grocery store (or anywhere else) in the first place???

Is you having the freedumb to run errands more important than my health? Why should I have to rely on your flimsy little disposable mask with its gaps on the sides to protect me from the germs you’re (not worried about) spreading?

Your mask is to protect ME. You’re not wearing a mask to protect yourself. And if you think you need to be wearing a mask because you might infect others, you should just stay home instead.

JFC, some people.

DP. Get a grip on yourself. People used to shop sick all the time. Single parents, working parents, if you are vaccinated covid is not dangerous to you, nor is it likely that you will give it to your unvaxed kids. Despite people claiming you will spread it, and yes you could, it is very low chance that vaccinated people are spreading it at any alarming rate.
You never cared about the flu or even pneumonia before, and honestly most of us are just done with people like you. You can come to HS football games and realize how crazy you sound demanding on dcum that people mask to protect you. It makes no difference, 100s of kids are unmasked in our very own MoCo, all the time. Thinking that your virtue signaling here makes any difference is well... delusional!
The problem is hat you did not get on with your life as you should have, and have no idea what the "freedumb" are doing next door to you.

Vaccinated people are dying from Covid and getting sick. Some of us don’t want to risk getting sick. You cannot say who will be ok or not.

Unvaccinated were and are dying from pneumonia, the flu, from Lyme disease, cancer... Life is full of risks. Your risk of covid being vaccinated is likely less than of any other illnesses. Why were you not worried about the flu 4 years ago?
Why is this paltry risk different than all he other risks? What is worse about covid than flu if you are vaccinated?
I am honestly asking. I can't understand the reasoning of fearing covid while vaccinated more than you ever feard a myriad of other transmissible illnesses than can also results in death.

I was worried about the flu but the discussion is about Covid which has killed 700,000 plus people in the us alone. Flu has not. Covid is not fully under control.

But, it is not killing that many any more and you are vaccinated. Are you a science denier?

Sorry pp, you don't have control over me masking. It's been so great, I plan to mask every winter inside from now on out. I've been so sick since moving to the DC area, it's so congested with people and it seems no one stays home (or can afford to) when they are sick. It's an extra bonus if masking pisses you off.

In a few days none of you will be mandated to mask and I guess it will be fun for you to grocery shop without masks, so go for it. You can already go out to eat without wearing masks while eating, so not quite so sure why folks are so happy they still get to eat without masks.

I won't be able to be there, or spend my money there unless they have pickup of some kind, but hope the rest of you have all the maskless fun you want.

Of course we don't have control over you masking. Just as you have no control over us not masking. If you are scared of being a bit sick and you think that warrants you avoiding grocery store, good for you. All I can say is you should feel grateful that you can afford such economic privilege.

I heard on the radio this morning that we are on track for Thursday! I’m so excited.

Feel free to mask anywhere, everywhere and as long as you like. But some of us are ready To ditch the masks. If Montgomery county, one of the strictest counties in the entire nation, drops the masking requirement then that tells me we’re OK to unmask.

Getting pickup at the grocery store is free to less than $5 a month, depending on the store. I've checked. It's not a huge "economical privilege." Just doing my best to save on groceries. More than covers the pickup fee, if there is one. With a combined income under 100k, I'm probably one of the poorer pps here.

Sadly, the workers at the stores (who make less than we do) won't be able to protect themselves as well --which is the real economic disadvantage.

A friend of mine, who works retail in a maskless state, just lost 10 days of income because she caught Covid (while vaccinated), probably at work. She had a mandatory, unpaid, 10 day quarantine, and I ended up sending her money for food on our measley (for the DC area) income. Those are the real people who don't have "economic privilege." But, by all means,enjoy infecting them with your breakthrough Covid cases you catch at brunch.

You don't tip???
What a miserable person you are, all around! Scared of living, yet a nasty miser. I can just picture you making everyone around you miserable.

The grocery store I go to forbids tipping, it's their policy. Theobe cart guy who was requesting tips, which I gave him, was fired. Even though, I still discreetly tip on holidays.

It's really weird that you attack someone within hhi of 100k in the DC area for not tipping at a grocery store that officially doesn't "allow" tipping.

So one pp thinks I am a miser for being DC poor and not tipping when I have a chronic health condition, and another pp thinks I have "economic" privilege. Got it.

And, all of you, enjoy taking your masks off and exposing these grocery store workers you aren't tipping anyhow to Covid.

So never unmask, right? Covid will be around for our lifetimes.

No, will eventually become endemic like the flu and kill significantly fewer people. But, whatever, you obviously haven't been paying attention.

Again, enjoy unmasking in the grocery stores and retail stores and whenever else public you go and increasing exposure to the workers. That's a whole lot worse than being a "miser."
