[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish people would have more thought for the immunocompromised who can’t stay home. https://apple.news/ACFBj9xskR1uWRYsgT9psVw I got my shots, but I found out Monday that I don’t have antibodies. I have to go out for cancer treatments and would appreciate it if you wore a mask.[/quote] Until when? Covid is going to be with us forever, like the flu and other illnesses. How long should vaccinated people have to wear masks for the benefit of immunocompromised people? [/quote] How big of a deal is it to wear a mask at a grocery store, pharmacy or doctors office? Not a big deal to me, at least, even if I am already vaccinated. At the bar or club, probably not, but the immunocompromised people are probably not hanging out there right now. Don't understand people who don't care at all about the basic needs of others. [/quote] So, forever? No thanks. [/quote] After a couple years, the virus will have settled down. Just like the 1918 flu turned into the "regular" flu. A couple of years of wearing masks in a couple of places is not a hardship for me. In fact, I've been so much healthier this year than I am wearing masks everytime I go to the doctor and pharmacy for the rest of my life. It's a small inconvenience that makes my life and those of people around me better. Why is it such a burden to you? Did you mom make you wear a mask to beat you? Or punish you? [/quote] The masks were a temporary, emergency measure during the pandemic. The pandemic is winding down in the US, as a result of vaccinations (among several reasons). I've been vaccinated for nearly two months now. There is no rational, scientific reason for me to keep wearing a mask. So, now, I don't agree that there's any reason to continue mask mandates. [/quote] Exhibit A: American selfishness “exceptionalism.”[/quote] I'm sorry you don't believe in science and are an anti-vaxxer. [/quote]
