Yep - school district is dropping the mandate Feb. 18th. Will probably continue wearing mask in public indoor spaces for awhile... until the drop in cases/infection rate gets back to a "reasonable" level...
CoVID-19
My question is how are we going to define reasonable?
I had a regular client just catch Covid. I will just keep wearing my n95 and anyone who has a problem with me wearing it can fuck off.
"We" aren't gonna - you're gonna have to do that yourself. I'd say once cases/100k locally get 'round 15, I might consider dropping the mask. Then again, I may wait until it's around 5. Time will tell.
Timing on the current drop in cases is going to work fairly well timing-wise for my ski trip to Utah.

900,000 deaths: America’s count continues to rise. See where death tolls are spiking.
Four of the five states with the highest shares of population-adjusted deaths over the past month have fully vaccinated less than 60 percent of their populations.www.nbcnews.com
They were going to die anyway
I wonder if that effect persists after correcting for political affiliation.
The reddest corner of King county has a death rate over 5 times as high as the bluest corner
It's obvious that COVID is a liberal disease... and is playing the long-game.

I still have a cough from testing positive in the beginning of December. Smell came back after 4 weeks.
We have a friend that had it in fall of '20 and 6mo later was still reporting that stuff still "didn't taste right."
I'm taking care of my ailing mom with a slew of comorbidities and have my own health concerns so I recognize that I am probably the 1% of corn-teen / mask wearing / carry out only for 2+ years and worst of all no "proper pints" at a local brewpub BUT the notion that because people are "tired" of Covid mitigation efforts means Covid is done is a bit troubling.
With 2000+ deaths/day and hospitals still unable to handle non-Covid cases it seems like a strange time to remove mask mandates.
Bozeman is probably 50/50 masking in grocery stores etc. Island Park ID is probably 10/90 -- and I'm the 10
Meanwhile in the People's Republic of Alexandria VA, the dumb-ass Gov hears from the constituents that didn't vote for him...
Read the room, buddy

I asked the woman behind me at the Market to back away. She was close enough to be able to smell her ashtray breath. She ignored me. I told her in louder voice to back the fuck away from me. At this point she got all Rosey Perez on me. The asset protection guy intervened. Told her to put on a mask or leave. She threw her groceries down and left. They gave me a $10 gift card.
Since nobody but me wears a damn mask in this town anyway...

Apparently my dad has COVID. My mom is sick but hasn't tested yet. They leave for vacation to Aruba on Thursday. #boomerthings
Let me guess... they're still planning to go?
I believe Aruba requires a negative test within the last 72 hoursLet me guess... they're still planning to go?
yup, they adopted the same electronic passport process as the virgin islands. They require a ton of info.
I sure hope they got the insurance...
sounds like they aren't going. Makes me happy. Sad they can't go, happy for the people on the plane and the people on the island...
Anybody actually get their tests the Feds were supposed to send out via USPS?
Just ordered more from Jeff Bezzos and remembered I was supposed to get the other ones approximately a long time ago. I hate to think that perhaps our government may be full of inept morons…

Yes.
The parliament lawns have been turned into a swamp, then Barry Manilow blasted at them 24hours a day (interspersed with government "get vaccinated" adverts, and now this.
Someone call the SPCA and make a Cruelty to dumb animals complaint!
