Oh lordy. There's still that ridiculous troll anti mask banter and the low information clueless crowd.

The basics. What is a vaccine? It's an introduction of a synthetic dead form of a virus that teaches your body to recognize a threat so that you can produce antibodies to fight it.

Do vaccines prevent infections? No they don't. They teach your body to fight that infection when it invades.

If vaccines do not prevent infections, does that mean you can pass the virus on to someone else? Yes it does.

That's why you wear a mask after being vaccinated until about 75% of the population is vaccinated. That's what it takes to reach herd immunity.

Biden wears a mask post vaccination because it's the right thing to do. Vaccinated people can still be carriers.

Our positivity rate is still down below 3 here and that's because you see people wearing masks everywhere.

The more we do the right thing, the faster this is over.

Presumably, as the leader of a country he feels he needs to set an example to his people.

There's nothing really else to it.

It's called 'leading by example'. Whether or not that's effective is another matter. Had Americans followed Trump's leadership by example we would have all reported for work at 11:00am, left at 5:00 and taken 3 day golf vacations every weekend. Oh, and porn stars.

It's called being a demented, old puppet. Biden wears a mask when he is TOLD to.

You're so correct. Compliant, obedient citizens are good citizens.

Who TOLD him to wear a mask? Maybe that guy that finished first in his class at Cornell Medical School. Who told you that bleach and disinfectant might kill the virus if injected or ingested? The guy who paid someone to take his SAT.

Well, you CAN catch covid from grocery store items (but the odds are so small sane people have ditched the gloves)..and you CAN catch covid from a FedEx package (but the odds are so small sane people have stopped the scrubbing)...

What are the odds of a person catching covid from a fully vaccinated person?
