And how about if they sneeze or cough?
And how hard is it to wear a mask for the protection it affords everyone involved?
Why? Triple vaccines not enuff?

Is driving in the speed limit enough to implement safe driving?
Or do we also have seatbelt laws?
Is this so hard to understand?

This is the reason why Republicans and Trump supporters will never win future election is because they don't follow the science.
Hah. Bro y’all have a rude awakening coming. The Dems are gonna pay a major price at the polls for the past 2 years. I have never in my life seen the country this divided and ultimately f*cked up, and it went into overdrive the moment your crooked pedo in chief took office.

In the mean time, can we all agree to wear the mask until seated for dining?

Not a chance. Save that pathetic crap for California. We’ve been back to normal for months and months here. And we’re all doin fine.

Sure enough. Except for the ones that ARE DEAD!
I mean, there's that.

Yeah, but it would probably be too hard for someone like yourself who doesn't seem to understand that vaccines are like 85% or 90% effective, which, for those of us paying attention, means there are still some chances of getting infected.

But we are right now in a pandemic, wearing a mask if for your own safety including getting vaccinated. Just get the jab and put that mask back on until the pandemic ends, then you can live your free life.

That’s what they said in March 2020. Two weeks right?
You can’t comply your way out of this.

Nope there is another blue wave coming and this time, we will remove Greg Abbott from office, turn Texas blue, and make all you white racist Republicans slaves. Biden will win again in 2024 so keep crying 😂😂😂.

LOLLL that you think this is EVER going to end. Fauci has already said that jabs are going to continue indefinitely. There are $Trillions of profits at stake. It is NOT going to end.
I think all schools should be held in restaurants then once the students get to their ‘desks’ they can remove their worthless face diapers.

Sure, the waiters get exposed, but only to 10-20% of the total guests depending on how many servers there are.
It’s a numbers game for risk exposure.
It’s not about your protection but protection from you, the guest.
Some grade A Orwellian nonsense here. Show your loyalty to Big Brother!

So those believing in covid mitigation measures outline an argument with reasons and logic. Covid-deniers just discharge insults. That's it.
And that is why no one bothers arguing with obvious idiots.

Not an argument on this, just curious: Where is "here"? You don't have to be too specific, the state would be fine.

This.
I can at least understand why there is some controversy around vaccinations. There are potential risks and side effects, so even if it seems obvious to me that the benefits outweigh the cost, I can understand why people don't want to feel pressured into getting vaccinated.
I can't really understand why wearing masks is controversial at all. Putting on a mask for a few seconds requires next to zero effort and essentially carries no downside. Even if the benefit is minimal, the cost-benefit is still favorable because there is essentially zero cost. If a restaurant wants me to wear a mask for 10 seconds while I walk in the door and go to my table, complaining about it would take more time and effort than just doing what I'm asked by the private business whose property I am entering.
Anyone who claims masks have no downside is mentally ill. Something is legitimately wrong with you if you can’t understand why people hate these things.

The hostess is vaccinated so it doesn’t matter at all if she gets it or not, she’ll be fine.

Even if we can't all agree, we might try to at least be consistent.
If your position is that wearing the mask for 10 seconds reduces risk, then you should not even be in the restaurant because staying home would reduce the risk even more. If decisions about behavior are to be entirely determined by minimizing risk, the restaurant should be closed.
If, on the other hand, you have made the arbitrary decision that wearing a mask for only 10 seconds while walking to the table is a level of risk that you are willing to take and a level of risk that you feel should be imposed on everyone else, then you need to make the argument for your acceptable level of risk.
The level of risk of a behavior may be a matter of science. What is an acceptable level of risk ought to be a matter of rational discussion in a free society.
Fine, don't wear your mask - but don't forget to wear your diaper if you're going to act like a baby about it on a message board.
