Mask requirements are popping back up again across the United States following new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance that even vaccinated people should wear masks indoors in public in high-transmission communities.

Nevada quickly reinstalled a statewide mask mandate within hours of the CDC’s Tuesday announcement, requiring face coverings be worn indoors in public in counties with “substantial or high transmission” starting Friday. Twelve of Nevada’s 17 counties fit that criteria, the state said.

That includes Clark County, home to Las Vegas, where the renewed mandate has raised questions about how it will affect its tourism industry, which had been on what was seen as an upward trajectory toward recovery from the pandemic.

“Let’s mask up to keep one another safe,” tweeted Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak (D).

“Keep one another safe”. I hate that phrase almost as much as “We’re all in this together”.

As long as you wear your mask the vaccine will work!

Woo-Hoo! A hundred degrees in the shade and masks too!

Life just keeps getting better and better! The National Guard Association is having their big get-together there in August; one of my friends is in charge of attendance.

I wonder how that’ll go over? She was afraid this was going to happen when I talked to her last week.

“It’s for The Children!”

“Fifteen days to flatten the curve.”

“If you like your insurance you can keep your insurance.”

“We have to SIGN IT FIRST to see what’s in it!”

Socialists and Mother Government. Making it hard for me to trust them since 1960!

It's not working on me. The more they push, the more I dig in.

The mask will work if you get vaccinated.

“It is not a welcome piece of news that masking is going to be a part of people’s lives who have already been vaccinated,” Walensky said. “This new guidance weighs heavily on me.”<

She knew damn well Dem Governors, Mayors, etc. would institute mandates after she announced it.

"You must get a vaccine because masks don't work. You must wear a mask because vaccines don't work."

Arrest every last one of these con artists.

I would pay a lot more attention to the “keep one another safe” crowd if:

—They didn’t allow criminal illegal aliens or illegal aliens with contagious diseases to enter the country

—They didn’t bend the knee to criminals while harassing law abiding citizens

—They didn’t push unproven medical experiments on the population

etc etc etc etc

Where leftists are in charge, _nobody_ is safe.

Perfect and succinct.
