[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe the county is choosing to screw over immunocompromised people, adults who haven't been able to get vaccinated (yes, they exist, including significant numbers of poor/immigrant adults who can't afford to take time off work for side effects or are worried about being deported), and kids, just to cater to wimpy whiners who can't tolerate the tiny inconvenience of wearing a mask inside... [/quote]

Immunocompromised and people who are unable to get vaccinated should stay home. They should have always stayed home. As for poor/immigrant adults who have been working in person, those persons were the first to be offered vaccines many months ago. For the vast majority of people, side effects last .5-1 day at most.

We have all already wasted over an entire year of our lives - you're really mad that people want to have a normal life again? And that people value their quality of life (which you are in no position to determine for another human being). Anyone who can't or isn't able to get vaccinated at this point, can and should stay home. You should never put your health in the hands of other people and expect others to care more about your health than you. [/quote]

What kind of bubble do you live in that you don't understand that some people have lives and jobs where missing "probably one day but could be more" of work on a day 3 or 4 weeks in the future could be seriously problematic financially and possibly cost them their job which would then be totally devastating financially?  (And BTW, tons of people working in person only became eligible a month or two ago.)

And are you seriously saying that whether you wear a tiny piece of fabric over your mouth inside for a few minutes in a store is a quality of life issue?  Do you also feel oppressed by being required to wear shoes?  It would be slightly more comfortable to walk barefoot, after all...

Well, take it up with the county.  Bullying posters for following the current guidelines rather than subscribe to your wishes on perpetual masking is frankly bizarre, not to mention ineffective.[/quote]

What, it's considered bullying now to have a different opinion about what the county's policy should be, and to defend my position when someone disagrees?  Yikes, people are super fragile, apparently.[/quote]
