If people could act like adults and just wear masks indoors, get vax, and not do large condensed outdoor gatherings ... I think the CDC could give more detailed and exact recommendations.
But we are a country of children who pout and whine and play games.
If CDC says "outdoor transmission is negligible if we dont do large condensed gatherings" .. all Muricans will hear is "we are allowed to go outside" and the "no condensed gatherings" part gets lost in the sauce.
We as a collective group cant be spoken to like we are adults. Because we think in bumper sticker size limits. if a sentence has a comma, we dont read or remember the ", but .." part.
Its like my daughter. I can tell her no sweets after dinner .. she asks if she can have hot chocolate.
we are a nation of morons with the attention span of a sugar riddled 8 year old who wears Iron Man pajamas to the grocery store.
Government shouldn’t lie about the science…and we know this wasn’t acceptable last year, why is it now?
We also know and most with common sense have clearly known: transmission is extremely rare outside and data says schools have never been an outbreak source. Schools are safe and the flu is historically more deadly than covid when it comes to kids.
I think the mask requirement will be dropping this summer for indoor activities as vaccines continue to roll out. Which is a great thing

Wear your masks everywhere, all the time. They're fantastic and work. If you don't wear them religiously, we will shame you.
But we really can't live our lives until the vaccine, because that will really really work. If you don't get the vaccine, we will shame you.
The mask works and the vaccine works, but still wear your masks all the time and still alter how you live your lives. And now add in a possible yearly booster shot.
The goalposts never get moved closer, always further.
I'm genuinely curious if a lot of liberals just don't care about freedoms or don't realize they're giving them away, until it's too late?
This is either the funniest parody post Ive seen in a while .. or exactly what I was talking about in terms of people acting like children throwing a temper tantrum when you tell them its bed time.

You do you SunnySide. You're the smartest man in the room.

Wearing a mask is a minor inconvenience it's not about freedom.
It's not about wearing a mask or whether its an inconvenience or worse. I've worn my mask like a good little boy since the day it was required. Still do.
It's about still wearing a mask, involuntarily, when there is no reason to.
Same thing with gatherings. Get vaccinated but still don't be inside with other people. I'd rather live my life and take my chances possibly getting sick then still live under government orders despite being vaccinated.

It’s not about science to libs anymore…it’s laughable political theater
Funny how the party of personal choice and freedom gets irked when someone exercises those rights. Who cares if someone wants to wear a mask inside, outside, or on the fucking moon. At the end of the day they actually work to help reduce the spread of respiratory illness, that's a fact. But my freedoms... get the F outta here.

Not sure it I'm lumped in as part of this. But I don't give a fuck if you wear your mask in the shower if you want. I specifically said involuntarily in my previous post. If you're more comfortable wearing a mask, then go for it. I think we will see a certain % of people wearing masks all the time going forwards. Nothing wrong with it.
Just tired of the mask drama in general. The fact that being asked to put a piece of material over your nose and mouth to help stop the spread of a deadly virus has been met with such resistance and bitching and moaning from some out there is just embarrassing and childish.
I too think they're here to stay in some capacity, especially during flu season. Can't wait to keep this drama going.

I get this. And I do wear my mask when I go into a store, etc.
But I think it's also reasonable to ask questions. I just don't trust government types in general. Don't think most of them truly have our best interest at heart.
I'm not out there protesting and licking door handles. I'll keep wearing it when required. I just hope the requirements eventually get lowered.
I've pretty much just accepted 2021 as a mask year.
C'mon 2022!
