Pennsylvania Tightens Mask Restrictions, Private Homes Included
BREITBART ^ | Nov 18 2020 | hannah Bleau

Pennsylvania officials are tightening mask requirements in the Keystone State, requiring masks in instances where individuals who are not members of the same household are “present in the same space” indoors, including private residences.

Dr. Rachel Levine, Pennsylvania’s transgender health secretary, detailed the requirements in an updated order Tuesday, explaining that the virus “continues to spread” despite the mitigation efforts implemented earlier in the year. As a result, Levine is looking to universal masking as the first line of defense, claiming that “universal face coverings, even when not clinical-level masks, have been an effective mitigation strategy to prevent and control the spread of disease.”

His letter lists eight instances where a mask is required. The list essentially requires individuals to wear a mask in most instances, unless he or she is within their own household along with members who also reside there.

Per the order, a mask is required “indoors or in an enclosed space, where another person or persons who are not members of the individual’s household are present in the same space, irrespective of physical distance.”

The order does not explicitly provide an exception for gatherings at private residences. The AP also acknowledged that the order applies to private homes but added that the health secretary “acknowledged that officials are relying on voluntary compliance rather than on enforcement.”

The folks up there deserve what they’ve got for government. Elections do indeed have consequences and this is proof positive.

Want to be lorded over from cradle to grave? Want to live a life with the boot of government on your neck? Well, have at it.

Some people are just too weak to tend to their own lives.

Ya’ kinda’ wonder how someone who looks as gastly as this man/woman/freak/it could ever get elected or appointed to anything. You can see the anger and nastiness dripping of his/her/its face. My god! And I thought Whoopie Snotberg was ugly.

Seriously though, who in Sam hell votes for people like Whitmer, Cuomo, Deblasio, Wolf, Newsom?

If masks had worked, why do we need them now?

If masks didn’t work, why do we need them?

IOW, their requirements are not working.

So let's stop with the nonsense already.
