Last March, I followed the CDC’s advice and got fully vaccinated against COVID-19. I did so more out of a sense of civic duty than any actual fear that I might contract the virus. It was just an easy and scientifically sound way to help slow its spread. Naturally, I was delighted when the CDC finally announced that fully vaccinated people could safely participate in indoor and outdoor activities without wearing inconvenient and clinically useless face masks. Now, the CDC has reversed itself and issued new guidance telling 163.6 million fully vaccinated Americans to put our masks back on. Sorry, no sale.

Amen to this article. Time for all of us Freedom Loving Americans to stand tall and proud and refuse to obey this illegal communist regime any longer. Civil Disobedience on a mass scale will bring this soon to be brutal communist totalitarian regime tumbling down. No Masks and No Lockdowns, Ever Again. We are Americans.

Why do they specify ''face mask''?
Are there any other kind?
Is it to avoid confusing it with a crotch mask or a chest mask?

The Center for Democrat Control specifies a mask but have you ever seen specifications for a mask? Any old rag or piece of paper will do as long as it is over your mouth and nose. I won't wear a mask either. CDC's credibility is almost zero and just a little higher than the FBI's.

This reminds me of the words to a song we used to sing. I have forgotten the exact words but it goes something like this. First you say you will, then you won't. What are we going to do? They send out so many different messages there is no wonder people are reluctant to take the vaccine or wear masks. The MSM is playing a major role in this mess.

I have to wear a mask at the doctor's office, the hospital and on airplanes. I am willing to wear them there but no where else.
Biden wants to keep the virus front and center as this distracts people from his other power grabs.

It is going to be mandated. You better mask up. They are going to send people to your house, fire you, and force contrition. It's all voluntary though.

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the last war
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no!
I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Oh I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?
There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by the bye
And a parting on the left
Is now a parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

#4, I think you’re remembering “Honey Don’t” by Ringo Starr.

Sorry, David, but masks are not a “scientifically sound” way to slow the spread. Covid-19 and all its variants are aerosols. Masks are only effective against droplets, and for a short period of time, at that. That being said, I refuse to wear a mask again.

The Nazis had the Star of David , the Democrats have 'the mask'. Same intent, same evil.

#8: That was beautifully put. Can I quote you on that? Thanks.

Flew on Delta airlines yesterday. The stupid mask Karen announcements were driving everyone nuts. I just ordered another gin and tonic, sipped it VERY slowly, and all was well.

Sorry for the second post:
#2, sped right past your excellent post. Back in the bad old days of 2020, when one of the least-loved barmaids at my favorite watering hole would screech at me to put on a mask, I would always say, innocently and sweetly:
"Why, I AM wearing a mask. Would you like to see where?"
The whole place would crack up, and she would get even angrier [as if that were possible].

Interesting that the party that trusts people to vote without ID wants proof of vaccination at a restaurant.

When the black population hanging out on street corners at 2AM and Muslims wear them or stop gathering in groups to stop the spread I might just think about it. Until then I'm not putting on a mask, getting a shot of some unknown untested chemical to make someone else feel good and safe in public. I agree with the article.

So let's get this straight. We have to wear masks and push to get the "experimental" vax but the government is allowing millions of infected illegal aliens with all kind of contagious diseases come into the country and be distributed everywhere so they can keep the shamdemic alive.

4's query suggests 'Undecided', an old swing-era big band number. Maybe one of the Dorseys.

Tell me that if I don't wear a face diaper you won't sell me food I know plenty off places that will. In a pinch I can always have it delivered.

#4, tge Ames Brothers had a big hit with “Undecided”. They also had another hit that applies:
“If it ain’t yes, it’s no,
If it ain’t fast, it’s slow,
If it ain’t yes, it’s no -
Gotta be this or that.”

I went maskless all week at work. No intention of returning to wearing it. We move back in to our remodeled office next week. Will be interesting to see how it plays out. Best case scenario is the company lets it slide. Don't ask, don't tell. Medium case: Roy Cooper institutes some sort of mandate again where everyone must mask up. Not sure how I would respond. Alternate and/or worst case: I get confronted by someone in the company. I will state they can keep me or fire me.

I wore a plastic face shield for the first year of this nonsense. I could breathe easily, people could recognize me and nobodies spit got on me. After that I was told I could not enter the shops without a surgeon's mask. Being on the receiving end of a functionary with a little authority is surreal.
