Health officials in seven Bay Area counties — Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara and Sonoma — on Friday urged vaccinated people wear masks again indoors to prevent the spread of the highly infectious delta variant of the coronavirus.

The officials said in a joint statement that while fully vaccinated people are well protected from developing serious illness from all coronavirus variants, asking everyone to wear masks indoors can help protect unvaccinated people. A universal rule makes it easier to verify that unvaccinated people are masking up, the officials said.

I knew it that the Karens and local tyrants couldn't give up all that delicious control they had. Well, FU, I'm loving not having to do kabuki theater every time I go into a store. So they can shove their "recommendations" where the sun don't shine.

Well, FU, I'm loving not having to do kabuki theater every time I go into a store.

I am too. But the stores will knuckle under and mandate masks for entry, as they did before.

Is there any bigger virtue than saving lives?

I am afraid you’re right. I hate it but I’ll respect a business’s wishes. But I’ll first shop at a store that’s more reasonable.

Illegals crapping on the sidewalk after a day of shoplifting is still cool, right?

[NohSpinZone]

Of course!

Good point...wear a mask and don’t pay.

They’ll again lock down the entire state of California. Get ready for it.

Put yourself ahead of the fear with the phrase: “I am unable to wear a mask safely.” Their pigpen their rules be damned, we simply cannot take a gigantic step backward into masking, lockdowns and other forms of abject tyranny without at least putting up a fight ... lest all be lost. It’s that deadly serious to our Republic.

I fear Nevada is about to go mask again because of the disease monkeys in lost wages. What was the point of the vaccine?

new study is showing that wearing masks forces people to inhale over 10% the recommended safe limit of CO2

the virus is 99.98 overall survivable, the .02% that would die, get a vaccine and are protected another 90% or so, meaning most of those in the .02% that normally would die, now won’t, but by golly we gotta shut everything down and force people to wear face diapers again-

Get ready for this nonsense to start up every time flu season rolls around from now on- with the left claiming that flues kill people too-

When the stores required a mask, I would make them provide me one. Rather than lose a sale, they would furnish it which I would discard in their trash as I exited.

It may be that the floods of illegal aliens pouring into this country is causing the instances of COVID-19 to increase.

I’m thankful that I live in Texas. There are isolated pockets where masks are worn, but they are few and far between.
