Nice try, Boss Man!

…15% of everyone who gets covid gets long covid? I’d like a link to this.

No, it’s just largely unnecessary. If you want to really protect people DON’T GO OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE. Ever. Stay shut in, it’s the only way to be sure.

No one should shame anyone for wearing a mask. However no one should shame anyone for not wearing a mask.

I don’t begrudge anyone for wearing a mask in solidarity or to do what they think they can to save lives, but I’m on the side of feeling like I’m taking a personal bag to the store, or recycling plastic bottles like it’s actually doing something. I personally don’t like wearing a mask, and I feel like in most cases it’s just theater to do so.

What qualifies as a vulnerable individual? Do they wear a T-shirt saying so, or do we all have to wear masks on the off-hand chance we’re near one?

I’m starting to realize that the terminally online have just migrated to Lemmy. Who’s being selfish or inconsiderate? You’re forcing me to wear a thing on my face because you or someone else MIGHT get sick from a disease they will most likely survive, if not just shake off with zero consequences in a week like the common cold.

I did my part by getting vaccinated so I don’t add to the number of people who’ll go to the hospital. If things get really hairy I’ll wear a mask, but it’s really just for show. I don’t believe that it’ll do much to protect me from getting sick or potentially spreading the virus.

Eh… Nah. I don’t think you’re going to see a lot of mask wearing in the US again. If they want to roll out another vaccine I’ll take it, but the masks are a pain in the ass and no one likes them.
