He is a retired state assistant attorney general.

Is it still funny now?

You insist they should just get the vaccine?
You’d take the responsibility for their death or damage?
Who the hell are you to give medical advice?

Cloth ones likely don’t even do that much.

They are designed to help keep others from being infected by an infected mask wearer. N95 is different and then only works if properly fitted, worn once, and disposed of.

What has happened in the world over masking is insanity but then it’s done by the Left for power in which they are insane too.

Consistency is not their strong suit. Nor do their constituents seem to demand it.

So what?

The vaccine is only between 90% and 95% effective, and the percentage of older people among the vaccinated is very very high. They are also most susceptible to getting serious COVID and dying from it, and also to having serious co-morbidities. So those stats would be about as expected.

Insurrection.

insurrection (n.)

“an uprising against civil authority,” early 15c., insurreccion, from Old French insurreccion or directly from Late Latin insurrectionem (nominative insurrectio) “a rising up,” noun of action from past participle stem of insurgere “to rise up”

Maybe they have a good excuse. Perhaps a note from the doctor…

Please excuse Igor and Natasha, Mau and Chinle, they are vaccinated, and are at six times greater risk of progressive viability, and likely infectious.

Isn’t the tactic they are using just another form of filibuster?

You’re not looking at the actual data.

Others and I don’t assume that the masks are adequate for prevention of spread; size of virus vs pore size of mask. It seems that it offers little more than a face placebo or a shame marker. Why buy the lie? Such as the motives of the politicians and health care aparachtiks.

If “there is a good chance that the vaccines we now have may become obsolete” what does “Simply take(ing) the vaccine.” accomplish?

I am already vaccinated (since late March 2021) but do not believe the media or the Delta strain panic mongers.
