This is the problem. Very very few people followed the 6 feet distance rule. I think that is one downfall of masks. People think because they have masks on, then they are invincible and can get close to people. Not the case! You need to wear a mask AND social distance.

Nobody is doing that, hence the virus continues to spread...
Delusional.

Do you just continue with your blind pablum? The 6 feet was MADE UP OUT OF THIN AIR. Masks have been proven to do less than nothing.

Wow. Totally buying everything they say. I give up on sheep.

Baa. Baaaaa. Baaaaaaaaaa!

And that's why Covid is not going away. Because everyone has that attitude. Covid is not going to go away by magic. People have to do something about it.

I can’t.

Wear your mask and hazmat suit and jab up, but leave others alone.

You do you, and I’ll do me.
