The work thing was not limited to Gov't.
Then there was the face flag/ mask thingy that was awesome. Then add in unnecessary school/ business shut-downs.
 
I love how revisionist/ forgetful people become, as if we didn't live it.

The vaccine mandate by Biden was government. Companies had their own rules. Other countries had their own rules.

Same with masks - there was not a government mask mandate for the country. It was recommended. There were local and state mandates.

There was...um...pressure.

Again, stop acting as if we weren't there.  LOL/ SMDH  Fauci didn't exist, right?  Certain states were not called out for defying the recommendations, right?  Nah.  We just made it up.

You poor baby victim! It's the height of performative victimhood to act like public health measures are some immense burden.

I mean, it works in the other direction with you and your peers. You've told this story so many times of how bad wearing a fucking face mask was, you now believe it.

Slorch super mad when his company follows the lead of the federal government's mask mandate (for federal employees)

Slorch super not mad when his company follows the lead of the federal government's ban on DEI (for federal entities)

The OSHA rule (which was a epidemiological reasoning hot mess) literally had to get litigated at the Supreme Court. 

The lack of attention span is amazing. 

Amazing but not surprising.

Politically motivated measures in the name of public health.

The masks were fucking stupid then.  They would be today.  They will be tomorrow.

Don't get me wrong, I took the initial vax, but it was because our son was abroad and I wanted to be able to travel when restrictions were lifted.  I don't have a problem with other people taking it, any more than I  do the flu shot, which is zero.  Their choice.  Wear a mask if you want.  Your choice.

What political outcome do you think was at the heart of facemask ordinances for public shared spaces? Please be specific.

For an airborne virus like COVID, masks are extremely effective at blocking the droplets that carried the COVID virus. I'm sorry masks are ineffective for Raider Rash, so I can understand your frustration

Also, as usual, no understanding of anything

Literal preamble to the Constitution - promote the general welfare

I'd assume any moron would figure out that public health ordinances in the face of a once in a century pandemic would fall under promoting the general welfare.

It's been a couple of weeks since I last posted an update. It seems like the number of new cases is diminishing (hopefully peaked), but at the same time, the geographic spread keeps increasing. Since my last post, the official list includes the following new counties: Carson (up by Amarillo), Collin, Hardeman, Rockwall, and Atascosa. Of course, there's also the Hays County one on the previous page.

I guess they determined the ones in Denton and Scurry (posted a month or so ago) weren't linked to the Gaines County outbreak.

OSHA rule regarding masks was applied to companies, not the whole country. Reading comprehension much?

Damn you're so brave and awesome. I swear to god there's nothing more annoying than a slightly inconvenienced American. Do you cry like a little bitch every time you get a splinter, too? Did you raise your kids to be pussies like you? I have many more additional questions if you are interested.

let me guess.

You refused to return to work.  Opposed reopening public schools.  Accused anyone who dined out in 2022 of, "killing your grandmother".  Wear a mask driving alone.

There is nothing wrong with masking in the context of a respiratory infection. But over time masking turned into a matter of social dogma and tribal signaling and not one of epidemiology and risk reduction.

Do you wear your seatbelt, or is the government overstepping its bounds there, too?

You need the context of a properly fitted N95 worn continuously.  Which was the case of 1 in 1000.

A cloth mask dangling below your nose has ZERO efficacy against viruses.

It sure seemed like people who diligently wore masks didn’t get that sick with all the other junk (flu, colds, etc) for about a year long period from March 2020 to March 2021

Or maybe the  decrease in human movement and congregation had something to do with it...

Question: do you think that this study and recommendation will be primarily used to a) implement sound and balanced public health recommendations and policy, or b) as ammunition in the “see! Vaccines are bad, even the govt and docs admit it!” cause?
You know the answer.

The language certainly does not take the personal recommendations and discussion away from physicians and their patients for individualized Covid vaccine decisions.
It is pretty clear, five years and multiple strains later that Covid has become a nuisance illness for the vast majority of Americans. If you really want to make a difference in vaccinations that are currently have  poor uptake then the focus should be on adult RSV, pneumonia, and flu vaccination rates which have suffered under public hesitancy of vaccines since Covid. This is  in addition to childhood immunizations like pertussis and measles. And while the current and very public and tragic measles outbreak is highly concerning, many more children died this year from RSV and influenza.

All the other adult and pediatric illnesses I mentioned currently have a much higher morbidity and mortality than Covid.

Public health should not bow to the political and media hot potato.

RSV vaccine strategy is an interesting case study in the context of this discussion. Initial recommendations were shared decision making model. That evolved from one year to the next into arguably more restrictive age- and risk-based recommendations. Nobody lost their minds about it. The recommendations just evolved based on experience and context. COVID booster recommendations in the US have been divorced from reality and the rest of the world for some time now. It's long overdue that they are brought in to line.

compliance. Flag waving.  It was an ineffective measure/ incredibly poorly executed that was massively overvalued.  Even when people had em on, it was a comical array of positions on the face/ head.

For an airborne virus like COVID, masks are extremely effective at blocking the droplets that carried the COVID virus. I'm sorry masks are ineffective for Raider Rash, so I can understand your frustration 

We can disagree without getting personal.  Oh no we can't.  It's in your playbook/ religious flowchart.

They knew it was dumb.  Everyone knew it.
