CDC to significantly ease pandemic mask guidelines Friday
Wyff4 ^ | 02/24/2022 | AP

The Biden administration will significantly loosen federal mask-wearing guidelines to protect against COVID-19 transmission on Friday, according to two people familiar with the matter, meaning most Americans will no longer be advised to wear masks in indoor public settings.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday will announce a change to the metrics it uses to determine whether to recommend face coverings, shifting from looking at COVID-19 case counts to a more holistic view of risk from the coronavirus to a community. Under current guidelines, masks are recommended for people residing in communities of substantial or high transmission — roughly 95% of U.S. counties, according to the latest data.

Whatever that means. I doubt it has anything to do with hospitals or airplanes.

People wearing masks in public look like S&M aficionados.

I can’t figure out where the Rice Rabies Vaxxed drones get their instructions. I’ve been out of the office at work for about 5 days, and I come back, and all the usual Covidian drones have dumped their masks! These are hypochondriacs who wear masks when stepping 1 inch out of their cubes! Did MSDNC or CNN tell the drones to stop wearing masks ahead of this CDC announcement? If so, the black Democrats did not get the message. They are the last ones in our little farm town still wearing masks!

They are too late. I did that about two years ago.

I still see some women wearing masks occasionally - I assume they are hypochondriacs. I don’t see men wearing them - and I’m in SE Pennsylvania.

Some great comments here on this. I still can’t believe young hipsters alone in the sunshine wearing the puss pampers...the GD cowards! Or is it virtue signaling?
