We still have people who insist or imply (even on this very forum) that everyone wear masks.

If certain people feel comfortable wearing a mask that is their right. I choose not to. Don’t bother me!

“In their pre-Covid planning strategies for a pandemic, neither the Centers for Disease Control nor the World Health Organization had recommended masking the public—for good reason. Randomized clinical trials involving flu viruses had shown, contrary to popular wisdom in Japan and other Asian countries, that there was “no evidence that face masks are effective in reducing transmission,” as the WHO summarized the scientific literature. The pandemic planners at the United Kingdom’s Department of Health had reached a similar conclusion: “In line with the scientific evidence, the Government will not stockpile facemasks for general use in the community.”

High school students in Seattle staged a protest demanding that a mask mandate be reinstated, and psychologists now deal with the anxieties of children who don’t want their classmates to see their faces.

Proof that indoctrination works.

When we first had mask mandates, I told Mrs. brownsfan masks will NEVER go away.

The painted faces on the street
Caricatures of long ago
Oh, they were young and oh so sweet
Down beyond the boulevard
Knock on doors and empty halls
And still sometimes remember

The masquerade’s forever

(The masquerade’s forever)

When you see the price they paid
I’m sure you’ll come and join the masquerade

The reeling figures pass on by
Like ghosts in some forgotten play
Beneath the black and empty sky
Music plays, and figures dance
With partners chosen by chance
And still sometimes remember

The masquerade’s forever

(The masquerade’s forever)

They reached for tomorrow
But tomorrow’s more of the same
And so they reached for tomorrow
But tomorrow never came

When you hear the price they paid
I’m sure you’ll come and join the masquerade
When you hear the price they paid

You’ll come join the masquerade

One by one and two by two
Past eight by tens in shattered frames
The players try to leave the room
Frantic puppets on a string
And all the while the music sings
And still sometimes remember

The masquerade’s forever

(The masquerade’s forever)

When you hear the price they paid
I’m sure you’ll come and join the masquerade

(The masquerade’s forever)

Wearing a mask that comes from a box that says NOT FOR USE IN HEALTHCARE SETTINGS to prevent the person-to-person transmission of an airborne respiratory virus is like using chicken wire to keep out mosquitos.

Wearers have flunked their intelligence test.

But if you don’t wear your mask, mine won’t work! Or something like that…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will never understand how anyone could possibly rationalize that line of thinking. It’s a border line mental illness. No, it IS a form of mental illness.

From the article: "The pandemic has eased."

It was never a pandemic as evidenced by the disappearance of all flu deaths in 2020.

As for those wearing masks, may they never take them off because there's always some bacteria, virus, or prion that will kill somebody.

I'm grateful they continue to show that they're Branch Covidians. It's not our job to convince them otherwise.

The people driving alone with a mask on are particularly stupid.

At my providers office with mandatory mask requirement, several staff are wearing a clear plastic shield rather than a cloth mask. One man who handles check out wears a clear plastic full face shield.

Neither is as confining as a mask and seem worthless but apparently meet the requirement. A number of waiting patients have the masks down below their noses.

The mandate is being cast aside

Who were the instigators for this protest? Teachers? Parents? Students? So sad to see how many brainwashed people there are in this country in 2022.

They’re suffering from “mask dependency,” as this psychological affliction is termed in Japan, where a long tradition of mask-wearing during flu season has left some individuals afraid at any time to expose their faces in public.

Masks are adult security blankets.

Yep. They fell for Fauci and the media’s BS hook, line and sinker.

If they want to continue strapping dirty laundry on their faces, fine by me.

But leave the rest of us alone. And keep your distance. I don’t know when the last time was that they washed that nasty thing.
