Congratulations on the 5 year EXTO. I'm envious. |

I am pro mask and I approve this message. I am not the cops and don't want to be one. I took a walk around the airport the other day with my tie and epaulets off to get a cup of coffee. I had an early wake up and was tired. I couldn't figure out why when I said hello to a couple of pilots, they were looking at me like I was from another planet. Then it dawned on me. Oops. Mask was in my pocket. It happens. |

Quarantine the vulnerable, the rest get on with life. We have the numbers now, we know what we are dealing with. Non-revisionist history will not deal kindly with how we have handled this. Not a doctor, but I can sure read the graphs by those who are. |

Not a doctor, but I can sure read the graphs by those who are. Just imagine all the money to be saved in hospitals and doctors offices and dentists. No masks required cause they don’t work. For 100s of years the medical community has been masking up to stop droplets of water containing particles including viruses that are emitted from the nose and mouth. It was all a scam man, a total scam. No need to mask up for the surgery it’s all a scam. You like reading graphs? Read these and make sure you read the words attached to the article too by a company that makes its living on doing these types of analysis. If you want to say it’s all a scam and look like a moron that’s fine but for the sake of the economy just mask up...it’s the least you can do. https://www.goldmansachs.com/insight...s-and-gdp.html |
For ****s sake, can we not derail another thread?

As for real police enforcing mask wear... If people wear their masks then there's no need for any kind of enforcement. Where I live, there was a huge spike in cases plus people kept gathering in specific locations without masks, so the city finally had to hire people to wear yellow vests and hand out citations. The whole thing was stupid but people refused to wear masks, so the mask patrols were the inevitable consequence. I prefer to just wear the mask so they don't need the mask cops in the first place. Really not sure why some people keep tilting at windmills over this. |

We don’t want cops breaking up riots or policing neighborhoods but writing tickets for no mask is ok.

I wear the mask when I’m at work because I want my airline to succeed. I wear it when I go into a confined area with other people or if I can’t maintain a distance... we need people to feel comfortable crawling out of their bunker and shopping again. I am not wearing it outside... that’s stupid. This is a matter of common sense, and writing tickets for it is an overreach IMO. |

Spoken like a true clown Bozo. Guy is solid, does his homework and knows his ****. No doubt. You don’t get to do what he has been doing for that many years and get accolades from people across both sides of the aisle without being spot on. Sure his job is public health and that’s all he cares to talk about. He doesn’t care about the economy at all, not his job. It’s a certain leaders job to gather subject matter experts on the pandemic and the economy and sit down and hammer out a plan to address both the public health and the economy, but we have seen a vacuum in that regard. Now for the sake of the economy just wear the damned mask, NOBODY like it but most do it because we live in a society and that sometimes means we make sacrifices for the betterment of the common good. |

There's some bad history with Fauci. I think it's possible he's not as great as everyone thinks. However, I don't have the time or interest to research the guy so I don't have a truly educated opinion on the guy. I don't believe guys are heroes just because the system says so. In fact, if he's a darling of the government and media, he's immediately questionable in my opinion.
One thing we know for sure though, he throws like a girl! 😁 |

I believe Southwest was in a unique position to do this on such a large scale compared to the legacy carriers due to its business model of not having much international exposure, having no large wide bodies that are fairly useless right now, and the fact that their primary customer base (leisure travelers) are traveling at higher percentages than business travelers. The legacy carriers had poor balance sheets and way too much debt BEFORE this mess even started. |
Very true

Southwest was in a great position because it is ALWAYS in a great position due to it’s low debt and efficient operations.
