While a new subvariant is causing increasing hospitalizations across the country and we await the updated Covid-19 vaccines, now may be a good time to put your mask back on, doctors say. Especially in certain settings like on plane rides and trips on the subway.

The percentage of people who said they wore a mask outside of their home in the U.S. decreased from about 57% in January 2022 to around 27% in January of 2023, according to data compiled by the Covid States Project.

This infectious disease doctor might want to kiss my arse.

[HYPOCRACY]

Put a plastic bag over this douchebag’s head. That’ll keep the germs out.

Mask up in these three scenarios;
1) You are immunocompromized
2) You have significant cardo or pulminary or other health conditions
3) You are easily programmed to be afraid by the media

The good doctor may want to take those masks he’s recommending, and wipe his arse with them.

[Walrus]

Then again, I might NOT want to “mask up”

[Fester Chugabrew]

Cold season again. O my!

[Darksheare]

I wholeheartedly second that sentiment.
