We are in this strange situation where the folks who don't need to wear a mask (the vaccinated) are willing to do so, while many of those who really do need to wear a mask (the unvaccinated), balk at the prospect.

Before the mask mandate was dropped in the infection rate was below 2%. After it was lifted it's up to 6.5%.

As the old saying goes, it isn't paranoia if someone is actually out to get you.

It would reduce the infection rate down to miniscule numbers and the severity down to minimal degrees. That would eliminate the need for any masks as we would essentially be at herd immunity numbers.

Would some people still wear masks? Probably, but I couldn't imagine there being any public prompting.

I’m not going to get into this deeply with you Guido. I will simply say that I don’t think you or anyone else has all the facts and most of what we are told is BS at worst and misleading at best. If someone wants the vaccine and has it then good for them. If someone has gotten it, then they should be safe and shouldn’t give a damn if others around them have had it or not. I’m not a big fan of controlling and endangering people’s lives in the name of the public good.

So, then does that mean that people should be able to do what they want and if they get sick and die then that's on them?

I just don't understand where doing nothing is OK. It'll never make sense to me.

Sorry, Boston, but you lost me there. Whose lives are being endangered?

If you can’t see the difference between making people get a vaccine that we have no idea what the long term side effects of are and “people should be able to do what they want” then we will never see eye to eye.

That’s why I said I’m not going to get into this with you. You are narrow minded and incapable of honestly evaluating opinions that contradict your own. You said you don’t care about the politics of the NFL and the people that don’t like it. Well, I don’t care about you BS opinions about vaccines and mask mandates.

Do you honestly believe that vaccines endanger lives? And COVID doesn't?

Oh, wow!

Just wow.

Thank you for proving my exact point.
