The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has finally recognized that the masks they’ve had everyone wearing for the better part of a year are largely ineffective because aerosols easily go around the top and sides.

I have a persistent mental image of liberals sitting around getting drunk, betting each other that they can get people to do something more outrageous than anybody else without objecting to it.
