It doesn’t matter who the super spreaders are - the masks are not stopping them from spreading it.

They still play these backpedaling cards since no vaccine is 100% as has been said a few hundred times in these very forums.
Nice try. No studies on whether vaccinated or unvaccinated are hospitalized. Remember tracking breakthrough cases? Ops, we don’t do that. And most of any hospitalizations are old people. Again, pretty narrative without ANY factual studies. Keep believing the fake media articles and selected interviews of that ONE hospital that may have younger hospitalizations (called Jude).

How this thread any different than the hundred others? There are about four people on here who shrill for vaccines like their lives (or stock portfolios) depend on it.

They need to be vaccinated and boosterated, they need to wear masks, they need to have a COVID vaccine passport ... they need to keep their jobs and feed their families.

Yet cases are skyrocketing among those religiously following the above measures.
Yep. I am here and unable to go in the office because I’m not vaccinated. Or a gym or the movies or a restaurant. I can’t wait to leave this hellhole and never live in a blue state again.

I sell you my house in Houston. No mask required anywhere. If any body would require them, just pull it down around your chin and carry on.

I roll my eyes at places that forces employees to mask yet doesn't force customers or guests to wear them. Hello, McFly, they can still get sick from the aerosol of a customer or guest without a mask on. If businesses have the right to right to refuse business, do it to protect the workers. And people wonder why stores have empty pegs when employees cannot come in because they are sick or quarantined...

Agreed, cloth masks do not work. And there is currently no mandate barring their use.

I actually don’t mind the mask. It’s the mandates that scare me.

So this really all boils down to the people who don't want to get vaccinated. I get it, your body, your choice. So why isn't it my choice now to not wear a mask now that I'm vaccinated? Why is this only a choice to the unvaccinated?
I thought that as well....stopped wearing a mask and then contracted the virus. Not sure which variant, I'm guessing the Delta since it was before Omicron popped up.

The only think the vaccine does, is , in most cases, keeps one from being hospitalized.

And again I ask.... had you worn a mask, would it REALLY have made a difference? I'm very doubtful it would've.
