Just because you are vaccinated doesn't mean you can't still get it and spread it. It just means your symptoms will be less severe. I do wear one to protect the kids under 12 who are vulnerable because it's not just about me.
Lol so you are never going to give up wearing a mask?
These 14%-15% Asians in Seattle are fresh off the boat from Asia?
Most of them are not. And I never saw "masked up Asians" in Seattle before the pandemic EXCEPT for the obvious tourists (Those posing for pics in front of tourist attractions).

It is weird. You have to remember though, Seattle is one of the most far-left cities in the nation. The residents are trying to outdo each other with virtue signaling and showing how compliant they are to a petty little dictator in Olympia. WA had mask mandates and lockdowns in place months after Idaho opened up, and even before that many were not wearing masks here. Our residents are FAR less tolerant of accepting the dictates of a power-hungry governor.
You got that right. I moved to Florida 2 months ago after 10 years in Seattle surrounded by garbage I never voted for.
They'd vote for Charles Manson if he ran as a Democrat... Don't even get me started on Inslee. Petty little dictator is right.
As for the residents... yeah. Sheep. I can't tell you how many times I saw residents driving alone in their cars with masks on... Scared of Casper carrying the corona maybe? I dunno. When I left they had just opened up vaxxed and unvaxxed sections at Mariners games... vaccine passport required.
The stuff that Florida governor DeSantis has banned.

I was wondering the same thing. Children are by far the lowest risk age group... but yet we see parents scrambling to get their kids vaxxed. It's as if nobody looks at the numbers... or they've just been brainwashed by the fearmongering media. Unless they have some pre-existing condition I have to ask... why?
I had taken my mask off, but with the rise of the Delta variant, I've put it back on in crowded, indoor settings. While me wearing the mask isn't nearly as effective as the infected person wearing the mask, it does offer me something. I've been vaccinated but the vaccine only provides 60-something% against contracting the Delta variant with a high protection rate for serious illness. So even if I get it, I'm likely to be okay. I just don't want to get sick...period. So, if I can reduce my viral load by even 10%, I'm good with that.
No vaxx no mask. If you got your jab why would you worry about me? I would think if you were brave enough to take an untested whatever you want to call it then you can come out from under the bed already. How easily you have been herded. You and your parents should be ashamed of you.
