[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Genuinely curious why folks are compelled to trust our public health officials when said officials base the new mask guidance on a gay party weekend in Rhode Island and an Indian study that was rejected for peer review?

“Genuinely” curious what gay has to do with anything, aside from revealing your world view.[/quote]

DP - The relevance the Provincetown (Massachusetts, not Rhode Island) party weekend is that it involved more prolonged close contact than most public interactions involve - loud, sweaty dance parties with large crowds (indoor and outdoors) close together shouting in the ear of the person next to you, etc.   Being gay specifically is irrelevant - except that it is indicative of a population who traveled there for the goal of socializing and partying in a crowd of strangers.

The two most logical takeaways that in my mind were (a) Delta is highly transmissible in very crowded close contact situations and (b) as designed vaccines do lessen the impact of the disease on the vaccinated.  [/quote]
