At this point in the pandemic, 2 years in with readily available vaccines with public fatigue, does anyone really think re-imposing a mask mandate will have any real effect. Imposing and lifting mask mandates every few months like a yo-yo. Wore my mask all the time when mandated and have gotten the vaccine and booster. Sick and tired of this bs by overzealous government Karens. Take your mask and shove it DC.

Wear one if you want, leave me the fuck alone. I refuse to wear one unless forced. Fuck the government for mandating it at this point. 2 fucking years in. The government can shove it.

Oh, so mister "I'm vaxxed and have conformed" has suddenly decided to go rogue?

Fuck you, liar.  You're not vaxxed, you haven't worn a mask, and your fat ass is lucky to be alive.  Decorum prevents me from saying what else I'd like to say.

Hahahahaha. Check my vaxx card bitch. Enough is enough with the masks. At this point. Doing a disservice by mandating them again. Mandate vaccines. I have no issue that. I got mine as soon as I qualified.

That’s the point. It’s been 2 years. The media fear-mongering and handwringing about another variant that causes mild symptoms amongst the vaccinated. Enough. If we leave it up to St. Fauci and the other assholes in charge, this will never end.

Do you spew snot all over the place when you sneeze? Do you cover up to prevent it?

It's the same goddamn thing.

And the difference is that every single person in that arena has to be 100% vaxxed just to get in the door.  The New York State mask mandate is that masks are recommended but not required at venues where everyone is required to be vaccinated.  They are required in indoor spaces where vaccines are not checked, like shops, grocery stores, etc... 

I still wear a mask in those areas though, especially given Omicron.  A lot of people are.

You're asking THAT guy why he cares what others do? The guy who has explicitly stated he wants an authoritarian leader to force people to behave in a way he approves of?

I do right now since I actually have COVID, and I still have to walk my fucking dogs.  I am wearing a mask to protect others, not myself.  This is the part that is fucking lost on selfish assholes like yourself.

I've never understood why Icono came to a message board, spent years developing an abhorrent online persona, proceeded to admit to something as personal as meth-driven prostitution to people he's alienated, and then come back with the same abhorrent persona. This is not the behavior of a healthy individual.

Mayor Bowser lifted the indoor Mask Mandate on Monday, November 22. It's going swell.

Now do NYC.

I don't think that omicron gives a shit about your mask policies.

I appreciate everyone posting info on cases and rates.

Please post hospitalizations , if possible.

At this point that's really a better metric.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19101]

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19101]

They cut off the March/April/May hospitalization numbers, but it should be noted, that the surge in NYC in Jan/Feb of last year was still miles better than that first surge.  Yes, lots of folks hospitalized, but was light years ahead of that first one.  You can see that from the deaths.  

In NYC, 12 and up are 82% fully vaccinated.  That is a good thing.  Wish it was 100%, but this might scare some people into doing it.  DeBlasio's mandate goes into effect on Dec 27.

Can you elaborate on the manner in which Democrats politicized the virus?

The entire vaccine development and approval process was politicized by #bothsides.  We can look back on the shit with perfect hindsight, but there is absolutely zero doubt that there was not substantial politicking around the approval process and timing.

You're going to have to show your work, because I think your "zero doubt" position is full of shit.

I mean, if you want to say that giant pharma being involved in an unheard-of vaccine development process might have made some demands, well, OK, but ultimately I don't see how you can point to a highly accelerated and successful development . . .  some of which occurred OUTSIDE of government purview . . . as "politicized", unless you're just gonna be your usual contrarian "everything is politicized" self.

And, let's not forget who was in charge.

Start here.

MIT Technology Review: https://www.technologyreview.com/2020/10/19/1010646/campaign-stop-covid-19-vaccine-trump-election-day/

The timing of the read outs was highly political.  The FDA ran their guidance in fits and spurts, and ultimately delayed the read outs needlessly. And yes, the politicization of the environment came from both sides.  But in hindsight acceleration of approval and roll out would have saved many lives. I know.  But Trump.

I am flabbergasted . . . no, seriously . . . that you would be so political as to assume that the need to meet safety standards would be less important than getting a vaccine rolled out before election day.

You just exposed yourself for exactly what many have thought you have been all along.  Good job pantsing yourself.  What a fucking day.

Please do tell me more about safety standards and how powering of clinical trials works and how post marketing safety surveillance works. And then we can discuss the FDA actions to extend the read outs of the vaccine data in the proper context of a global pandemic. Stay in your lane jimmy.
