After CDC Changes Mask Rules, Democrats Vow To Ignore The Science And The Experts
The Political Insider ^ | 5.14.21 | Becky Noble

On Thursday, the Center For Disease Control (CDC) made the announcement nearly every American has been waiting for: people who are fully vaccinated for COVID-19 no longer need to wear a mask either indoors or out, or practice social distancing.

CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said on Thursday afternoon, “We have all longed for this moment when we can get back to some sense of normalcy.”

President Joe Biden also seemed happy to announce that one of the most burdensome requirements on Americans due to the Coronavirus pandemic, wearing a face mask, was going away.

Meanwhile, in the state that killed 10’s of 1000’s of defenseless elderly nursing home folks by sending covid sick people into the nursing homes via executive order:

Gov. Cuomo declares New York is not ready to follow the science and implement the new CDC mask guidelines
News

“In a late-afternoon statement, Cuomo said he and Health Commissioner Howard Zucker had yet to decide if the Empire State would adopt newly announced guidelines from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“In New York, we have always relied on the facts and the science to guide us throughout the worst of this pandemic and in our successful reopening,” Cuomo said.

“We have received the newly revised guidance from the CDC regarding mask wearing and social distancing for those with vaccinations and are reviewing them in consultation with Dr. Zucker and our partners and health experts in surrounding states.””

[[asks you, “When did you get vaccinated?” or “Moderna or J&J?” what do you say?]]

The response is “Vaccinated for what? A Vaccine with a 99.94% overall survival rate? Are you serious?”

You here too?

I see a few older or obese people wearing masks. That and employees at any place where there’s food and in nursing homes but that’s about it. About a year ago, I went to Subway for lunch. Out of three workers and a dozen customers, only the sandwich maker had a mask on and as far as I’m concerned, they can keep that practice up. After all, they do stand there with their face right over your food and ask you questions. I don’t want no spittle on my food.

This was a scamdemic from the beginning. Democrats took this and ran with it.
Trump fell for it and lost the election as well. If he was out doing his massive campaign rallies the democrats could not have stolen the election. The scamdemic blocked him from doing so.

My response is “That is absolutely none of your business.”

And I chose to get the vax.

I agree with Crusher. It’s none of their business whether you decide to vaccinate or not. I don’t normally approve of lying, but in this case, I think I’d make an exception. Pick one of the vaccines, and stick with it. I’d probably go with either the Pfizer or the Moderna because the J&J might invite more questions. Tell them you didn’t have any problems with it except for a sore arm. Or say you were mildly ill for a day. Whatever you feel comfortable saying.

I did go ahead and get vaccinated after I discussed it with a trusted friend who is a researcher. I definitely had my doubts, but feel it was the right decision for me. However, I will not hold it against anyone who makes a different choice. It is yours and yours alone to make.

I go into my local Krogers (there are 3 near me) maskless. Even though the sign is on the door, no one has said a thing to me about it. Nobody. Not the workers, and no customers.

Granted, I live in a state where the mask mandate was lifted more than a month ago. People need to be brave, and walk in with confidence.

Let’s get back to OLD NORMAL!!

Wearing the face diaper will be back in the fall

You are so right on that. Obedience training must be periodically renewed in order to be effective.

I told the subway workers in my local store last year that I assumed anyone wearing a mask was sick.

They stopped wearing them.

I have not yet gotten the mRNA gene therapy sequencing.

But since my family contracted Whooping Cough when I was a child, I say I’m a big fan of vaccines.

It’s just that this rushed gene therapy ain’t a vaccine.

“It’s just that this rushed gene therapy ain’t a vaccine.”

What about all the corona variants they are trying to scare us with? Will the current mRNA shots protect us from those ? I rather doubt it. It is akin to taking the flu shots every year and gambling that the flu shot will protect you from the various flu viruses that emerge. There is no guarantee to flu shots; at best you have a 33% chance of flu protection.

The politicians can’t wait for those variants to spread fear into the populace again and masks will. be back

As for what to say when someone asks you if you have taken the vaccine, I have no problem in lying or just saying, If you’ve been vaccinated it makes no difference if I have or not. You’re protected.

Thing that I find frustrating is that people like fauci and the rest of the fascists are so utterly transparent. Yet it appears that the majority people are too dense to see that

People trust what eratz experts say over what their own eyes see and their Common Sense tells them. It completely befuddles me.

And we all knew it wasn’t about the science or our best interests.

It’s about power and control.

Could you say *I’m already immune?*

There are two kinds of people: Maskless and faceless. Faceless people are not fun at parties.

metmom :" And we all knew it wasn’t about the science or our best interests.

It's not only power and control, it's that Trump still lives in Nazzi's head.
It is such an emotional disconnect from reality and science,
I believe that Nazzi's emotions are ruling her because she is jealous of Trumps successes,
and the rest of the Dims are fearful of breaking from her demand for party "lock step" conformity.
