People still masking every day at work

You live in the DC area. It will never be done.

Really? Masking stopped in my part of MoCo ages ago. Kids and adults alike.

The only angry person angry here is you. Everyone else just thinks you and the other car-maskers are nuts.

If someone is in a car with someone sick, has health issues or is an uber/lyft driver, it makes sense. For allergies, it makes sense... why do you care?

And if they're just driving around with their imaginary friend?

Then it still doesnt concern you.

Right. But it's still weird.

You should really talk to your therapist about your obsession with masking and lack of empathy.

Should I assume they are unvaxxed? Just super paranoid or something??

I find this so weird.

If they have weak immune system, they need to try to minimize risk of infections in every way possible.

The pandemic has convinced a large number of people that they're suddenly and significantly immunocompromised. And some are, but many aren't. If you're not on corticosteroids, biologics, chemo, or radiation therapy, you're probably not significantly immunocompromised.

You have no basis for this statement other than the fact that you are....a big jerk. Who do you think you are? Are the spirit reader? A DCUM psychic.

go away.

You haven't noticed a significant increase in the number of people claiming to be immunocompromised? Where were all these people during previous flu seasons?

No.

Do you mean in your day-to-day or here on DCUM?

I think you are noticing more because you are paying attention to it. I do think people talk about it more, because of how the pandemic changed discussions about health. Maybe they kept it to themselves more.

Why weren't these people similarly concerned during flu seasons?

What makes you think it's just covid? I'm more concerned about colds and flu. Time for you to get mental health treatment for your anxiety with masks and your lack of empathy. Perhaps its a personality disorder?

Cool. But you know we had cold, flu, and masks in 2019, right?

Cool, so why do you care if others make choices different from you? You know it's been 5 years now and some have developed health issues since then? Oh wait, that goes back to empathy and you have none.

This has been asked and answered repeatedly. To recap: Yes some people did mask, others are ill now but weren't then, and others had not thought to mask for flu before but now they do.

Everyone knows that. Seek therapy. Seriously. Stop harassing people on the internet.

There's a ton of empathy on this thread. Many feel very sorry for the maskers and concerned of their apparent untreated mental illnesses.

You are insane. When h1n1 was bad my doctor had me mask. You questioning people's medical issues is bat chit.

Awfully sensitive. I take it you're one of the immunocompromised individuals that isn't actually taking any immunosuppressants. Let me guess: you have an "autoimmune disease."

dp - why did you put that in quotes?

Because half the people on Dcum claiming to have an autoimmune disease haven't actually been diagnosed with one by a legitimate doctor. And some that have a diagnosis only got it by doctor shopping until someone told them what they wanted to hear.

If you are the same person posting this "theory" again and again, I will repeat:

You have no basis for this statement other than the fact that you are....a big jerk. You have no idea what anyone posting does or does not have.

I'm not one of the maskers, BTW, but my parents do it, because my dad has cancer. So honestly, f u.

Still waiting for your diagnosis or medical test results.

The anti-maskers on this thread are projecting big time!

What kind of sad sack are you that you post stuff like this anonymously? You shouldn't be talking about untreated mental illnesses to anybody until you get your own house in order.

Luckily it has toned down now that the pandemic is effectively over, but you haven't been paying attention if you haven't observed a significant increase in the number of claims of immunocompromise and autoimmune diseases.

You don't think it is important to treat mental illness?

I don’t have a problem with people masking I’m just going to steer well clear of them as much as I can, unless I know it’s a health thing like cancer.
