For many kids this pandemic was the scariest most life altering thing they've experience thus far. I personally want to be able to tell them, we have fought the big bad monster and we are ok and on the other side! I think this shift of thinking is necessary to start building back what we have taken from them.

Anonymous wrote:To "everyone wears K95/N95 masks now" poster: the fact that you think that is reflective of your privilege and limited experience without people outside your same situation. I see a decent number of K95s in my NE neighborhood, but almost no N95s and the vast majority of people are in either surgical or cloth masks.

With kids, it's more like 10% K95 (no N95s) and 90% surgical or cloth. I wear a K95 personally but my kids wear cloth masks at school because we've struggled to find K95s that fit their faces (the ones I wear were actually purchased for them but way too big for them). I hit a point where I could not justify spending more money on these masks, especially given what low risk the kids are at. If the school provided them, they'd wear them, but I'm not going to spend hundreds of dollars on K95 masks again. I regret doing it the first time.

So not until March. Not right in the middle of a surge.

Do you think that we in the DMV are in the "middle of a surge?"

We were on Jan 15th.

Not really, no. Hospitals were fine. Sure, cases went up some because people were frantically testing. Deaths increased a little, but not much.

Yes, we had a surge. I’m sorry you struggle with reality, but we did.

DC cases:


Youngkin is a POS for pushing his EO in the middle of a surge.

That isn't even a surge. Its a tsunami.

And it is OVER. See the line plummeting down?

Exactly. Glad you're finally catching up.

Any reasonable, non-DB governor would have waited until the line was coming down before removing mask mandates. NOT in the middle of a surge.

Same result. Paper or cloth masks - which the majority of folks wear when required to do so - don’t do much good. I will give you N95 are effective - but not in wide use. You and other high risk folks have always been free to wear an N95 - which protect the wearer.

Huh? Almost all families we know wear 94s/95s now - since omicron. Are you even in the DC area?

Huh? Not sure what part of DC you are living in but just back from Cathedral Heights shopping and lunch - and a few N95s of Giant employees. That was it. You must be from some other part of the city.

Huh??? I'm in Georgetown daily taking kids to school and almost everyone is wearing a mask. We live in NoVa and everyone is wearing a mask...well, except the a-hole governor when he visited one of our supermarkets the other day. Of course, he was snarky and obnoxious when one of our fellow citizens called him out on it. But who would expect anything different from a jerk like him!?!


DP btw.

How old are your kids? My preschooler and very early elementary kids absolutely will not. It took a long time to find cloth masks they would wear with out taking off constantly
