The best are the people who screamed follow the science! Listen to the experts! Now both say masks are not needed and these morans still wear masks. It's a freaking comedy and libs are the jokes.
At a time when Ukrainian men are taking up Arms to defend their country, the US men continue to cry about being asked to wear a mask during a pandemic to save Grandma.
My grandma is smart enough to know that containing a virus in a net where each opening is 30x the size of the virus is idiocy. Like stopping a baseball with wires ten feet apart. But she thinks with her brain and not her television set.
Well they use the guise of "for our health" for a weak virus (the institution doesn't actually care about your health) to yield obedience. Yet theyll complicity let millions of Ukrainians be murdered by Russia and pretend to help. Red flag number 10 million. Time to wake up
I truly believe that as we learn more about certain areas of science, our approaches and opinions will and should change. So I try not to call out the "changing science". But what gets me, and quite frankly angers me is this notion that you can't question "the science". So, if we know that we will learn things that will inevitably change how we approach, why am I told to just shut up when I want to question. The biggest example was the absurdity of masking outside. I questioned that from Day 1 and was told "FOLLOW THE SCIENCEEEE!!!". Well, guess how that turned out?
Grandma needs a lesson in Biology. It’s not the size in the virus but the size of the droplet on which the virus hitches a ride. Want science? Check this science.
When Fauci dismissed masking in the initial stages, he was following 100 years of science around masking and respiratory disease (including WHO recommendations). When he flipped to masking/double masking, he was following the political science of about 1-2 months at the time.

It's like installing a chain link fence to stop mosquitos.
Do you guys honestly think that the virus is spread 'dry' through the air? No, it's spread in droplets and aerosols. WTF this is old science that you guys can't even follow, let alone the new stuff.

The same with his flip-flop on vaxx mandates.
Your original argument was completely destroyed and you just moved the goalposts. There is great evidence that masks works. A quality RCT in Bangladesh showed they do. The science is clear. You need to keep up.
COVID hospitalizations are rapidly moving toward their lowest levels since the pre-Delta trough last summer. Mask mandates were basically universally lifted back then. Add in better outcomes due to better vaccine coverage, new treatments, and milder Omicron, and there's reason to believe we are in an excellent place with COVID! This is good news! Why are people complaining that mask mandates are going away. All the metrics suggest that they should?
I follow the science even more: hijacked a Pfizer shipment and I inject myself with a booster every day so I'm more protected. I also distribute out free vaccines to people (Seattle/Portland residents especially) so they can self-medicate. They do it in public, so you know that they're protected.
