You are being poisoned with this fear and it will never be over since they have way more room to run with this variant talk.
Not saying we will shut down the country again, but long gone are our freedoms.

Great. More COVID talk. There needs to be a name like Godwin’s law for it.

Meanwhile, in Texas, life goes on. Get the vax if you want to. Wear a mask if you want to. Freedom to choose. Businesses are open and PROHIBITED from mandating masks...but you can wear one if you so desire.

COMPLY with all this or you will be expelled. If you pop positive, they immediately report you (by name) to the State of NY Health Dept (HIPA, anyone?) My child is a Senior so we are stuck in the Lunacy Loop up there for 5 more months in the land of Academia Idiots. NYC has mandatory mask and vax orders for businesses and restaurants. Michigan still has Lock Down orders in effect. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the 'Rona is not a threat...but so is the Flu, many thousands die from it each year, but the Flu Shot is still voluntary, isn't it?

You always hear the argument that it’s about “saving lives”, but this whole thing has been a very slippery slope that I’m not sure we can recover from.

People are not being forced to wear a mask. They have to wear a mask if they want to do certain activities. No one is forcing them to do those activities.
You are a mechanic. Not sure if you own a shop or not. Do you require your mechanics to wear safety glasses? What about the rule that requires restaurant employees to wash their hands frequently? I demand the right to have dirty hands and shrapnel in my eyes.
