Boulder, CO has 99% of >65 vaxed, and 82% of >12 vaxed. They just reimposed an indoor mask mandate regardless of vax status, and stated that mask mandates will be a permanent tool for when case rates meet the CDC definition of substantial or high transmission in the future. Nice!

New CDC guidance for summer camps just dropped. They “recommend” that every child eligible for a booster shot get one, and if they don’t, they should be quarantined AND masked for 5 days in the event of any Covid exposure. Whether they’ve already had Covid or not. Unreal.

@redsteeze 1,800 people died from Hurricane Katrina and Bush was crucified for only doing a flyover the day after. 1,100+ are dead on Maui and Biden hasn’t been there yet. But, no biggie.

How much of his personal time do you think Scott Galloway has spent helping low-income kids recover from the 1-2 years of educational damage they suffered as the result of policies he pushed? My guess is zero. But still, show him some grace. 🙄

Dr. Bob is drawing the wrong conclusion. There is NOT collective denial around the risk of maskless indoor activities. There is, in fact, ACCEPTANCE by most people that we're all getting exposed (multiple times!) no matter what we do. He & his followers are the ones in denial.

There's lots of collective denial around about the risk of maskless indoor activities with lots of people. It's pretty darn high right now. Best avoided if you'd like to miss out on BA.2 and its relatives. (Bonus points to my wife for subtle homage to Animal House & Dean Wormer!)

I care because: 1. Every masked person contributes to the normalization of mask wearing, which means college students, service workers, etc. are STILL being forced to wear them; and 2. masked adults send a message to impressionable kids that people are dangerous. That’s why.

Nursing home residents are the “forgotten people” now that the pandemic is behind us. Three years on, and they’re STILL being forced to live the end of their lives in a sea of masked faces. It’s cruel and inhuman.

One of the lingering mysteries of the response to COVID is why we were presented with this onslaught of high-production-value TikTok videos of nurses performing well-choreographed dance routines in hospitals across the world in 2020. Theories welcome.

@sarahbeth345 I took my wife to ObGyn last year. We had masks on in the exam room (practice required it.) Doc came in; older guy, a bit crusty. No mask. He immediately said to my wife, “Please take that off [the mask] so we can talk to each other.” That’s a good doctor.

Keep in mind: The unhinged reactions of certain public health “Experts” to this proposal aren’t because they’re afraid of what will happen to kids if the masks come off. They’re afraid that NOTHING will happen to kids, and their own reputations will be ruined as a result.
