We're still on the way up for at least the next month. And then opening the schools without masks? I'm telling you, there is the potential for a staggering # of cases & deaths upcoming in FL. I really don't know what the end game is there.
Hopefully the most at risk from the virus are already vaccinated.
Sure not this uptick in specific, but those choosing to remain unvaccinated are the reason we're still this far behind in managing the virus. And I know that there are many types of people who are choosing to remain unvaccinated, and if it's simply because of a medical condition or a genuine reason you can't get the vaccine then I understand, that's why we need everyone who is able to get the vaccine to get it. So sure the line about people on Facebook and conspiracy theorists isn't 100% accurate, though there are plenty of people I see online calling the vaccine the mark of the beast or talking about how the mRNA vaccine is going to cause major health problems. I'm just angry at anyone willingly refusing to get the shot. I'm mad at the people who aren't taking precautions to be safe (vaccinated or unvaccinated) that allowed this spike to happen. Quite frankly I'm mad at how selfish so many people are that when faced with a literal plague we had to and still have to argue about if you should inconvenience yourself by wearing a mask when you go out in public. So I apologize if you think my anger is misplaced, but with everything and everyone I have dealt with personally and have seen the trends across the country of how people have reacted to a global pandemic I am upset, and coming to work and having to revert back to stricter protocols because cases are going up just kind of reminded me that we really aren't out of the woods with this yet when we could have been so much closer to having this behind us. But apparently true freedom is not having to wear a mask to protect yourself or others in a global pandemic, dragging out the process of beating the virus and having a sense of normalcy. And this isn't directed at you or anything, I'm just explaining further.
Okay? This is the "Coronavirus Disneyland General Discussion" which means this thread is specifically to talk about covid. So why are you saying we shouldn't be talked about it in this thread?
My bad, I did misread it I am tired and I apologize. I saw your profile picture was pink like the other person I had been addressing. I agree with your post completely.
Nope, I will go in without a mask, if someone says something, I will turn around a leave, letting them know it is because they are requiring masks.
I went in to dominos tonight to pick up some pizzas. I wondered if they'd hassle me about not having a mask. As I was entering, I saw a maskless employee approaching. I held the door for him. No one cared about being maskless. I gotta go back there more often.
Exactly, if we vote with our wallets, businesses will take heed.
I'm also against that mandate.And we wonder why we are still in the mess we're in.
Do you say the same thing when you're asked for proof of your car insurance by a cop? Many places that is a 'mandate' to have.
That mandate made insurance prices skyrocket, just like what happened to health care when that was mandated.
