WASHINGTON — In a move to send the country back toward pre-pandemic life, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday eased indoor mask-wearing guidance for fully vaccinated people, allowing them to safely stop wearing masks inside in most places.
The new guidance still calls for wearing masks in crowded indoor settings like buses, planes, hospitals, prisons and homeless shelters but will help clear the way for reopening workplaces, schools, and other venues — even removing the need for masks or social distancing for those who are fully vaccinated.

I'm sure my governor, JB Pritzker, will ignore this and maintain mask mandates until sometime next century.

This mask insanity was never about public safety, or they would have shut down the BLM/Antifa rioters that first night they started their violent protests -- and not a mask to be seen!!!
No, it was the way for despot dictator-wanna-be governors and mayors in large Demon-Rat run cities and states to see just how far they could enslave the peasants before the peasants would revolt. They had amazing success, so don't expect them to give up that dictatorial authority without a massive fight anytime soon!!!!!

Oh, Thank You, Thank You. I always look to the CDC for permission and guidance. So, how will you know who had the shot(s) and who didn't? Is it show your papers time?

I still think mask wearers will be vulnerable to some sort of disease eventually. You don't breathe in your own carbon dioxide and bacteria for hours a day and get away with it. I don't care about adults choosing to wear them but making children wear them breaks my heart.

Hmmm....how will we know whom should be wearing a mask and whom is free to go maskless? Will it require suspending all HIPPA laws forcing people to tell strangers their private medical history?
Were AIDS patients at the height of the epidemic, ever required to carry any printed form regarding their status or treatment?

Every time these idiots talk about vaccinated people still needing to wear their mask anywhere, all I hear is "The vaccinations don't work!" Yet the powers that be keep trying to push them on everyone.

Since masks never worked anyway, this is just common sense.

What about SHOPS? And signs which say "No mask no service".

There is no statistical difference wearing a mask vise not wearing a mask in spreading the Wuhan Flu. Guidelines from the CDC are NOT mandates, let alone laws.

Does anyone trust the CDC any longer? How many deaths were a result of discouraging therapeutics such as HCQ and Ivermectin? Telling the medical community to send them home with Advil and rest unless they have trouble breathing. Sounds sinister but $13,000 for a Covid hospital admittance and $39,000 if a respirator is used. Are hospitals still a for profit business? Could the medical community be swayed by profit & big Pharma? Read recently, over 50% of deaths were in assisted living. And a majority of those were NY, NJ, Mass, Michigan, & California. Regarding children and the vaccine. Out of approximately 40,000 early deaths in 2020 (thru March 2021) of 0-17 year olds, only 228 were covid. The odds of children dying for covid are .0006%!

You can be sure that Biden will try to take fraudulent credit for all the millions of people who have been vaccinated. But Biden did not stick a vaccination needle in one American’s arm. It is healthcare workers all over the country who conducted everyone of those millions of vaccinations who should be given credit, and started doing that as soon as the vaccines that were manufactured and ordered during the Trump Administration era were granted emergency authorization and became available to the public.

Actually, they can do whatever the f they want. To think otherwise is an illusion.

On second thought, maybe a quickly constructed White House distraction from the gasoline shortage?

Perfect … let's just cut to the chase and tattoo 666 on the forehead of all the vaccinated so we know who they are.

A wellness/fitness director of a Govt. Gym complex said they will reopen in September or October for those who paid for their memberships and I told her to jump in a lake and keep the change you filthy animal!

I self-identify as a vaccinated person and therefore, I no longer need a mask.
