honestly, that would be the best decision ANY parent could make, but especially for parents with immuno-compromised children. I mean it is almost negligence to send such a kid to a festering petri dish like a public school.... that's crazy.

I agree, but I wouldn't say "negligence"

Will masks become the 'new normal' even after the pandemic has passed? Some Americans say so
Quote:

"I think we do need a new culture of masks, at least any time not feeling well, and I think masks are in and handshakes out for the indefinite future," said Dr. Tom Frieden, the former director of the C.D.C. during the Obama Administration and the president of global health initiative Resolve to Save Lives.




What's the point of this thread? The article -and the very paragraph you quoted- says masks should be worn by people who aren't feeling well going forward.

Is there anybody on the planet who thinks this isn't a good idea?

You probably would have been the poster who complained about seatbelts being a good idea moving forward when they were invented in 1959
I don't see businesses, store fronts, sporting events, concerts, schools etc. stopping mask requirements. Ever.

Last time I checked most private businesses still require masks...
Have you been lying to yourself your entire life or just since you started posting on this board?
Where's the lie?

COVID spikes again with a different variant, which it will, and the mask should go back on according to data they're currently basing mask use on and the fact that variant vax won't exist. Failure to do so nullifies reasoning for masks in the first place.

This is the new "flu" with higher numbers. If you think we should take off the masks in the event of a ne variant spike (which will happen) then all the masking we have been doing was pointless.
And I was right.

Masks are coming back full force due to a variant.
You may very well be proven right .

Confusion and non compliance will run rampant .

I don't need to wear a mask, but I will wear one if the business requests that I do so if I want to patronize them because it is a minor inconvenience and it is their shop.

I will not. Whether HEB or WalMart, I will simply tell the mask enforcer that I am going inside, gonna pick up my few items while social distancing. I will go to the self checkout, buy my stuff and leave. If that is unacceptable, please feel free to call local law enforcement and have me arrested.

I am done with this crap. Not doing it anymore.

It depends on the person.

Many will comply a long way with requests, some refuse authority and consensus. We're not trusting our governments and authorities for good reason. Want to blame someone, blame the idiots running our country and giving people real reasons not to trust them.

Crazy how comfortable they are on a lot of nonsense



Edit: Apparently, one cannot note the irony of Democrats on one hand demanding vaccine passports to move about daily life, while on the other demanding that a photo ID is an unreasonable requirement for voting.

I don't understand how one could hold both of those beliefs and not realize the hypocrisy, or not care.

Only people I blame are in China.

Regardless, I don't want the government forcing people to get vaccinated or to wear masks .

However if a business make's such a demand I am fine with it.

Just flew back from Montana . Had to wear a mask the entire flight. Didn't like it ( since I am fully vaccinated ) but it is their airlines ( Southwest ) and I chose to fly with them ....I did as required.

No different than the baker refusing business over his religious beliefs .

We cant 'pick and choose'....if business are free to set their own policies then we either need to follow those policies or shop somewhere else.

I understand fully.
If the vaccinated wear a mask it is for the benefit of the unvaxxed. I think I won't wear one anymore unless the business I want to enter requires it. I don't know anyone who is immune compromised.

There are 2 types of unvaxxed; those who have had Covid and those who will have it. The ones who contract Covid probably won't die and their antibodies are more durable than the antibodies obtained through vaccination.

We aren't going the get rid of this coronavirus so we'll just have to learn to live with it like we live with the flu. I'll get the booster when doctors recommend it.

Confusion and non compliance will run rampant .
It depends on the person.

Many will comply a long way with requests, some refuse authority and consensus. We're not trusting our governments and authorities for good reason. Want to blame someone, blame the idiots running our country and giving people real reasons not to trust them.
Only people I blame are in China.

Regardless, I don't want the government forcing people to get vaccinated or to wear masks .

However if a business make's such a demand I am fine with it.

Just flew back from Montana . Had to wear a mask the entire flight. Didn't like it ( since I am fully vaccinated ) but it is their airlines ( Southwest ) and I chose to fly with them ....I did as required.

No different than the baker refusing business over his religious beliefs .

We cant 'pick and choose'....if business are free to set their own policies then we either need to follow those policies or shop somewhere else.
It is my understanding that the govt, has mandates all airlines require passengers to wear masks, so it's possible this was not a private business decision.

Will masks become the 'new normal' even after the pandemic has passed? Some Americans say so
Quote:

"I think we do need a new culture of masks, at least any time not feeling well, and I think masks are in and handshakes out for the indefinite future," said Dr. Tom Frieden, the former director of the C.D.C. during the Obama Administration and the president of global health initiative Resolve to Save Lives.




What's the point of this thread? The article -and the very paragraph you quoted- says masks should be worn by people who aren't feeling well going forward.

Is there anybody on the planet who thinks this isn't a good idea?

You probably would have been the poster who complained about seatbelts being a good idea moving forward when they were invented in 1959
I don't see businesses, store fronts, sporting events, concerts, schools etc. stopping mask requirements. Ever.

Last time I checked most private businesses still require masks...
Have you been lying to yourself your entire life or just since you started posting on this board?
Where's the lie?

COVID spikes again with a different variant, which it will, and the mask should go back on according to data they're currently basing mask use on and the fact that variant vax won't exist. Failure to do so nullifies reasoning for masks in the first place.

This is the new "flu" with higher numbers. If you think we should take off the masks in the event of a ne variant spike (which will happen) then all the masking we have been doing was pointless.
And I was right.

Masks are coming back full force due to a variant.
You may very well be proven right .

Don't disagree. I was just clarifying this isn't necessarily a private business decision by the airline.

For me the issue is not about mask, but striving to reduce the number of infections that occur.

If you have an immuno-compromised child welcome to home schooling.

Do you think the governor should force face masks?

You made that assumption at least once before, and I will repeat what I told you then: "Give me info, not orders."

But since that didn't take.

No, the governor should not force face masks. Gov. Abbott should not attempt to order mask wearing again. Nope. To your question my answer is "no".

I flew last February on a short commuter hop (one row of seats on the left, two on the right). Eight of us on board. The five on the left had two rows of spacing between them.

Those of us on the right were assigned to consecutive rows.

just got off a plane- it is a federal guideline. From the time I parked the car at the terminal in Dallas until the time I drove off the lot of the rental place in Philly, I had a mask on

Nice and cool up here in Allentown PA.
