    this is a clip from several days ago, before the CDC guidelines on mask wearing outdoor changed, which Biden is, AGAIN, following. 

    where did anyone call you those names for following the science, as she is suggesting? they didn't.

    Starting May 3rd all educational workers are vaccine eligible.  I will call 📞 May 3 and get an appointment.  It takes 14 days after shot before some immunity?

    May 24 th everyone over 18 is eligible for the vaccine in Ontario.  I believe BC as well.  Manitoba truckers and education workers can be vaccinated in North Dakota?  Not sure how education workers get vaccinated in North Dakota with border closed?  Looks like good news all around.

    Excellent news.  Good luck to you.  Stay safe until then.  Nothing would be worse than catching it when the light is right there.

    So people aren't getting vaccinated because they think they still have to wear masks afterwards?  I'm not buying that argument.  
    I think masking is a small part of the overall normalcy people on the fence would be wanting to get back to.  Which is funny because most of the country has been "normal" for a while now without being vaccinated, yet we have our political leaders fully-vaxxed parading around like nothing has changed.  Imagine the messaging behind the whole vax campaign, "Once you vaccinated you can gather indoors with others who have been vaccinated" when people* have been doing that since last year.

    I don't konw where you live, but here in Richmond VA, it is rare to see someone in a store without a mask.  Even in a Lowe's or HD, you might see one person during a visit, and maybe not even then.  DC is the same and I imagine most of the urban areas, where the 'majority' of the population lives.

    Suburb of Nashville.  I would say it is 70% unmasked vs 30% masked where I am.  Stores do not require them anymore, although even when they did enforcement was "meh".  I would say in Nashville the percentages become closer to 50/50.

    Maybe that's why TN rates of infection are fourth in the country while DC and VA are near the bottom.

    I'm not sure how you would extrapolate.  You can back into the number using the population data to determine if it adds up to 30MM cases if you wish.

    Pfft. Except it's the opposite.  Young people mask up and the fat Trump supporters riding in their Rascals at Walmart being about their freedom.  Irony.

    I think a lot of people actually want the pandemic to continue. That's what it feels like when they say "no masks, no vax, no distancing, no closures." I think they like being angry and this helps them feel victimized. So saying "get vaccinated to help end the pandemic" isn't really going to resonate.

    Well, it does provide a target to rail against. I agree that many people like being angry - it's energizing and it feels like it gives a purpose. If it was really just about not believing that there's a pandemic or that people need to take precautions, then they would just go about their lives and ignore those who are acting otherwise, so clearly all of this time spent arguing and posting is about something else.
