Even the council knows that the very minor benefit of masks (maybe 10 percent) isn’t worth the hassle for the vaccinated and healthy.
I’m not sure what picture you were referring to, but the Bethesda beat had a picture of all of the candidates on stage, and they weren’t wearing masks. They were all side-by-side. At this point they were not eating, or drinking. I firmly believe masks are a farce and political theater, but it just shows you politicians are “do what I say not what I do or really believe in.”

Based on the latest CDC data, we're already at 87.1% vaccination rate among the total population eligible for vaccination. It's when toddlers are factored in that the rate goes down to 81.7%.
Fully Vaccinated
Total
858,781
% of Total Population
81.7%
Population ≥ 5 Years of Age
858,764

87.1%

% of Population ≥ 12 Years of Age
93.6%

% of Population ≥ 18 Years of Age
93.8%

95%
Wait, the 85% is based on the total population or total eligible population? Was this the factor the entire time or have a “revised” it?

Can you give us the evidence that masking is useless because most studies say it helps. Many are not healthy and you can still get covid vaccinated. Responsible behavior is important. If our elected officials cannot understand this, we are doomed.
Where did PP say they were useless?

So why are you posting on this thread about Montgomery County, Maryland?
For the same reasons you donated to Stacey Abrams campaign in FL.

You're upset because county council members didn't wear masks while eating? Or maybe you think the county council should shut down the restaurants? Or maybe you think that, if the county doesn't require everyone to wear a mask always everywhere, they shouldn't require anyone to wear a mask ever anywhere?
+1 The benefit is if people where a *proper* mask and wear it properly.
I see gators, masks under the noise, taken off to speak. And do you think the virus stops itself from spreading when you take off the mask to eat in a restaurant/bar/cafeteria? People breathe talk, laugh, cough, sneeze while eating. If it was done properly, IMO, the case rate would be lower. But people aren't masking properly. So, it's just political theater and a joke.
And even wearing a "proper" mask correctly, the benefit is very small.
Weird how people in hospitals keep wearing masks, though.

You see gators? OMG, where? Did you call animal control? Oh, wait, you meant gaiters.

It’s not like MD is halfway across the country! People in this area spend time in all 3 jurisdictions. I can’t believe someone has to explain that to you.
Evidently this Virginia PP doesn't, though. And yet is posting on a thread about Montgomery County, to complain about other people spamming the thread...

The data shows it helps a small amount and the benefit goes to the oldest people. There is no data on cloth masks, only surgical.

Nothing would stop you from wearing an N95 mask around yourself if the mandate was lifted.
That’s nice. Protection improves when both parties are masked, so you can keep yours on too. Thanks!
Tell me you don’t have any friends without telling me you don’t have any friends.
Now this comment is truly laughable. I'm in the arts and I have hundreds of good friends.
Now stop whining and just wear your mask like a big girl.
