TLO will wear one forever

Until the restrictions are lifted. I would have probably put until I'm vaccinated, but I will be fully vaccinated before the restrictions expire.

There are experts on both sides of the fence but there are some saying we're already seeing some of the effects already. People need to realize it's not an all or nothing. Fauci thinks we need to wear a mask until there's not a single death from Covid and that's totally crazy. It's time to go back to normal now. The health care system can handle what cases occur and no matter how loudly the politicians scream and try to exert maximum control it's time to wean them off their "pandemic power grab".

At 65k cases a day, we are nowhere near herd immunity. Herd immunity is difficult to apply to viruses that typically mutate. The flu mutates ALOT and conraviruses SOME. Nonetheless, herd immunity likely can never be truly achieved due to this. A Covid vaccine will likely be needed every 1-2 years for the rest of our lives. Some of you are just going to have to come to grips with that.

1.When I’m vaccinated
2. When over 85% of the country is fully vaccinated
3. When deaths are pretty much done

I will not wear a mask anymore when that happens. I project that to happen sometime this summer

Yeah, this is really pretty simple. You get it. Good for you.

Yep. I hate it but I understand there are people scared of the virus and I’ve no wish to be a dick to them. The bars don’t require it when you sit outside so that’s a good thing. Get my second Pfizer next week.

What is so funny? I don't even understand why that is a big deal. Just got to Walgreens in September and get your shot every 2-3 years. Mind boggling people make this such a big deal. It's so simple. get vaccinated. It's not about you. I'm not getting vaccinated because I'm personally afraid of getting the coronavirus. I'm doing it because it is for the betterment to our society and to get past this hurdle. Not getting the vaccine is selfish.

Don't you want to go to Chiefs and Royals games without a mask and be at capacity? Well if you do, just get ****ing vaccinated.

Pretty much. But I'll rely on the public health people to tell me when it's fine to run face-naked.

I answered I don't wear a mask, which isn't entirely true. If I'm doing a job in a place that requires it, I will wear it until I get to the network equipment. They won't let me in without it. But other than that, my mask is in my pocket and only worn when I enter a business and they tell me that I have to wear it. Most places don't say a word, so I rarely wear it. I can't wait until this nonsense is over. Mandates are being lifted in most places around here, so hopefully, not much longer.

Paging Dr. Willie - you're needed in the emergency room.

85% of the country will never get vaccinated. I'm not sure that over 50% will. I'm not getting vaccinated. Nobody in my family is getting vaccinated. In fact, most people I know aren't getting vaccinated.

Why are you choosing not to get vaccinated?

Some people like yourself may consider that dramatic change to be "minor", but most people understand the importance of getting our way of life back to pre-pandemic normal as soon as possible.

COVID wasn't a "part of our society" until March 2020 so the mask thing sort of makes sense, no?

You can agree that we need to work to get back to our normal ways as soon as possible and also not be a little baby about wearing a mask.

Not claiming to be a doctor. Just read what renowned infection disease doctors say. Know what you don't know. Do what experts advise. Life is simple.
