    I do agree you can't do less than you want others to do. 
    Wearing a mask outside with no one near you isn't doing more.  How does it help?

    Hugh, read it slow and let it sink in....  "It's common sense to know that the risks when you are outdoors....

    ...which we have been saying all along...

    ...IS EXTREMELY LOW"

    And just a reminder of what the leader of the free world did yesterday...


    we've known this all along. there has never been mandates here with regards to wearing masks outdoors....UNLESS you are in a crowded space. like a trump presser at the rose garden, which was outdoors. remember that?

    what biden did yesterday was symbolism, like has already been explained to you several times. if you choose to not understand what that means, that's on you. 
    I hate to agree with them, but I kinda do.  Biden should be following the best scientific guidelines.  I understand why he is wearing a mask there...but I disagree with it.  They should be very clear on the current state and follow it specificially.

    That said, I've take this pandemic very seriously.  And yet, I hardly ever wore a mask when I was outside.  Very rarely was I near anyone at all...and when I was it may have been for 4 seconds walking by on a trail.  The outside mask thing when not a lot of people and very limited time contact walking past someone was always pretty dumb.  But again, so was saying that masks don't help.  The CDC and everyone should have just stuck to the science from the beginning.  
    what did biden do that appeared to be against those scientific guidelines? he did follow it specifically. he was wearing a mask before he made the announcement, then took it off after the announcement was made. I don't know how much more to the letter he could have followed the guidelines.

    the announcer of guidelines, while obviously knowing prior to the general public, should follow the guidelines that public is aware of until they are also aware of the change. which he did.

    We all want to help right?  We have gone from an orange moron who got the vaccine in secret to a POTUS that took a shot on live TV.

    That is your perception - I disagree.  Mine is that it shows a leader who wants to put out a consistent image that wearing a mask is not something to be ashamed of, or to cry about like a little baby.
    Also, perhaps he did not want to take it up or down based on his proximity to people.  Surely it is not harmful and can only help once he comes close to people?

    You make a very good point on this specific situation ;)  I concede!

    I hope he is very purposeful as is everyone in his admin moving forward.  Cause it's what we need.  Clear guidance, and than walking the talk.

    For this instance, Hugh set me straight.  But on-going, no it is not ok for Biden to not follow the specific guidelines that he is asking the country to follow.  People will not trust the message.  It's like anything anywhere, leaders set the standard and their behavior must match that standard 100%.

    I would argue that it does not get people to wear a mask more at this point, but it could get them to stop listening if it doesn't match the guidance.

    he's getting out of a car with other people in it (indoors) and into another mode of transportation with other people on it (you guessed it! indoors!). how hard is this to understand?

    I don't have an excuse, I agree with it.  Good leadership, good image, encourage people that there is nothing wrong with it and to stop being a bunch of whiners.  He also walked right past several secret service/military folks.  Should he also make sure to not wear a mask at that point?  What does it hurt to do that when it is additional protection for all involved?  Why are the military or secret service wearing them?

    Perhaps what President Biden should have done was try to hold his wife's hand, only to see it slapped away.
    Or, try to actually reach something near the ground.
    Or, use 2 hands to pick a small item from the ground and in a nice gesture give it to the wife that so clearly doesn't want to hold his hand?


    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    the guidance isn't "don't wear a mask outside", it's "you don't have to wear a mask outside". scientific reality is that contracting the virus outdoors is low, not zero.

    Yup, this.  With a driver in a car...wear a mask.  With a pilot and others in helicopter...wear a mask.  A short walk between...might as well keep the mask on...though you could take it off and put it back on if you really wanted to mess with it that much.
