A mask against a virus is like
a chain link fence against a fly
Fauci agrees..........

Great line, right? I picked that up from some other comment. The analogy doesn't do it justice either... the fly would have to be much smaller and the gaps between the fence greater. How bout this one:

"The armband is to Nazi Germany what the mask is to 4th Reich America"

What do you think? I'm thinking of having 10 signs printed up for the holiday crowd coming in. I don't know what it's like for you on the east coast, DT, but it is looney city where I live. People driving around by themselves, wearing a mask.... riding a bike, wearing a mask.... kid in the stroller, wearing a mask... teenage girls wearing more on their face than their bottom (kidding, only slightly)...

The military has to make an announcement soon. We know the the fake news wont do it. I think they will step in and stop the vaccination soon... or take action cuz of the stolen election... or the chattle farming.... crazy world continues.

Dr. Evil Plan for Vaccine:

1/3 world has taken the jab. AI fibers in CV19 vaccine; tiny proteins that get into the skin are a problem. We will all be exposed to shedding from the vaccinated (spike protein transmission). It doesn't matter whether you've taken the vaccine or not.

The cabal can manipulate the AI protein and therefore they can manipulate people or clones that have these fibers swimming around inside of them. There's no telling how many sleeper clones have been created that live amongst us. There's no telling also, how our regular crazies will behave with protein booster worms that are controlled by 5G.

If you're wondering why it is that we haven't heard anything... if 2/3rds of DC has been arrested, if most of the cabal members have been taken in... the reason is the above. The few cabalists remain still have scorched earth means and possible motivation if they're cornered with no other option. They are Satanists after all.

Everyone keep close quarters. Keep your head on the swivel. It's not just the war chess board and the weather that are heating up. It's all happening. Pray for quick, deathless as possible resolution to all this.

Been seeing a lot of signs at businesses that say if you're vaccinated, you don't have to wear a mask anymore. Visited a local brewery, Safeway, and nursery over the last few days -- felt great to be maskless. Seems like 75% of the people in there still had their mask on though. Not sure if that means they're not vaccinated or they're still living in fear of COVID.

Was 84 degrees yesterday - had a Little League game. No coaches had masks, maybe 10% of the kids still wore them. Parents in the stands drinking beer/wine without masks. Feeling normal again.

Side note - my 2nd dose of Moderna did nothing to me. Was a little tired, but didn't get any sickness, fever, nothing. Lucky I guess.

I really don't know anyone who is vaccinated who is "living in fear of Covid". (Of course, I would not describe anyone I know that way, even before vaccination.) I think people consider it to be a polite gesture, i.e., you care about other people (masks really were never about protecting yourself, but from preventing spread).

Glad you had no effects, WoodinevilleCoug. Same here, but two friends had high fevers for about 12 hours.

Thanks man - yeah, I agree --- there used to be commericials about how polite and passive aggressive people are in the PNW. The time you pull up to a 4-way stop at the same time and it's "you go", "no, you go" scenarios. Pretty funny - probably how people are handling masks here. Just overly polite mask gestures.

For shot #2, my wife was pretty sick for 36 hours. A work buddy was also confined to his bed for over a day. I played golf the day I got the shot and the day after - maybe that's the key. :)

Finally being a professionalcrastinator pays off. I was originally going to get it. Checked around and didn't see any openings near me. Got crazy busy at work, started seeing reports of a lot of people having significant side effects. Didn't want to have to have those during the busiest time of the year at work. Procrastinated a bit more and now see that there have been only a couple thousand positive tests here in MA in the past two weeks out of 7 million people. So about 1 in 3000 people here have it. Pandemic over.

I would have to be crazy to get it now with about a 50% chance of significant side effects vs. astronomical odds of actually getting Covid.

1. A polite gesture towards vaccinated people who are probably also wearing masks who can no longer get Covid. Based on science, I find that nonsensical.
2. A polite gesture towards unvaccinated people who aren't wearing masks????? Based on the vitriol spewed towards this group, I find that nonsensical.

I actually think at this point voting in a POTUS election and getting a vaccination are pretty analogous. If you are in a non purple state your vote is completely meaningless. Literally zero chance of it impacting election but you do it to feel good about fulfilling your civic duty. That is all getting a vaccine would be for me right now. If their were no side effects I would probably do it but I am not going to risk getting sick for a day or two for feel good reasons. Is that selfish? Yeah probably but it is also rationale.

94 new cases out of 7 million people in MA on Tuesday. 1 out of 75,000 people. Herd immunity has been achieved.

I sense a lot more vitriol directed toward people who ARE wearing masks. Prominent example: https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/tucker- ... omfortable

If nonsensical is a bad thing (I assume that is how you mean it), I'll still go for an excess of politeness any day. People caring about not spreading the virus is what kept this *relatively* in check until the vaccines arrived.
