Over the past couple months, I’ve visited some of the most liberal cities in the country (San Francisco, Washington DC, and Boston) and in none of them have I witnessed the degree of outdoor masking and general Covid paranoia/obsession that I see in NYC. Will Covid obsessiveness ever end here, or is it just a part of the local culture now?
The liberal West Coast cities (San Francisco, Portland, Seattle) have been far, far worse than New York City when it comes to things like mask compliance.
Can I ask, if you don't mind? Have you ever gotten Covid? What was your experience like?
Had COVID in late December 2021. Muscle aches (one day was very bad…could hardly walk), light headache, light stomach ache. Lasted about 2 weeks(?). I was 55, overweight, high blood pressure and I didn’t die.
In all honesty, you need to stop listening to the “experts.” They have you completely brainwashed. The people that tend to die from COVID are those with 4+ co-morbidities. Just relax, take off your mask, and enjoy your life. You’re letting this COVID nonsense envelope your life. It’s not the Bubonic Plague.

Now that my cold is 99% gone (these last few percentages drag on for days), I'm still wondering if I should try again without a mask. Not sure what I'm thinking and why I am even thinking about trying again, but I am thinking about it. And I'm also wondering how I even got sick in the first place. I really didn't think walking by people in a store would be enough exposure to catch a virus. The only thing I can think of was when I got my haircut. I decided to go to the barber that weekend without a mask, and my barber also stopped wearing a mask for quite some time. So 15 minutes of sitting down in close proximity with him without either of us wearing a mask could've been enough time to catch something. Though my barber didn't sound sick at all, but possible he was asymptomatic. But that's the only thing I can think of that I did over Memorial Day weekend that could have triggered the sickness. Everything else I did without a mask was just quick 2 seconds of passing by people in stores. So really strange!
