It is you anti-maskers who are selfish nut cases. There is still significant community spread of Covid right now. Over 2,000 Americans are still dying a day from it. It is completely reasonable to wear a mask in the close quarters setting of an indoor classroom right now. May that be different in a few weeks or a month? I sure hope so but based on the history of this pandemic, there are no guarantees what will happen next. |
Please educate yourself on the actual law that was passed. |
How about when the under 5 vaccine is available? |
Oh, honey, please go back to bed. It's going to be a hard couple of weeks for you. P.S. You don't "hope so." You love masks and want to do this forever. |
That won't be for many months, so, no, that is too long to wait. |
Your comment is completely ignorant. Why does recognizing that masks are reasonable precautions right now means that I “love” them and want to wear them forever? |
Have you been anti mask from the beginning, or only after you and your family had vaccines? |
DP I've been wanting masks optional, which is different than anti-mask, since my entire family got Covid, including my 4 year old who was too young for the vaccine, and everyone was fine. The vaccines/boosters work, and little kids immune systems are pretty impressive. The masks aren't useful for my family, and they're not doing much for yours either, as we actually can't transmit Covid at this point. Which is why the concept of parental-choice is so appealing. Each parent/family can make the decision that's right for them. |
PP some people can't make substantive arguments, so they resort to baseless assertions, like anyone wearing a mask wants to do this forever. |
You do sound pretty reasonable, which I appreciate. People do get COVID more than once, so there is that. |
Those deaths are almost entirely unvaccinated adults. Fortunately, there is a simple way for them to not die, they've just chosen to take the risk. I'm sick of responsible people having to bear the brunt of precautions in order to protect idiots. |
The anti maskers have all had Covid which is why they don’t GAF. I noticed a huge shift in mood after so many got Omicron. It was like “well we are safe now, we don’t care if others get it because we got it too.” |
The shift was after 6-12 vaccines and adult boosters were available. |
I'm pro mask optional and to my knowledge we've never had it. We missed the omicron wave by being in the wrong part of the country when it started here. |
I agree on whom is dying but it is possible that children are passing the virus to those adults. While I agree with your frustration with the unvaccinated, the fact is they are out there and we still have a responsibility to try to protect them even if they won’t protect themselves. |
