I have a couple of relatives that believe the conspiracy theories and also spew out the "it's against my rights" bull**it. So very tired of the continuous stupidity of people!
The disinformation pandemic is bigger and badder than the Covid. At least we seem to have a smaller, less well-armed contingent of reality deniers in our neck of the woods. Sympathies on the kin.
We’ve been wearing masks in church again for the past few weeks. As far as I know, no one is up in arms over it. I’ve started wearing one when shopping again, too. My feeling is that if anyone is wearing one, then I’m willing to wear one in solidarity with them. Also, if it irritates any Trump fans that’s a bonus. Not so proud of that reason, though.
The insanity I see over them is incredible. I just see where Charles Barkley came out pushing folks to get vaxxed. I was really happy to see that since I’ve always liked him. I know he’s a Republican, or maybe was. Apparently, not on the Trump wing.
I see in the PS this morning where Warren Co had 29 Covid cases on Friday. St. Lawrence Co had 114 on Friday. The tri-county area up there had 153. I don’t know what the population is of each county. Can’t believe it’s that different. Their vax rate is definitely lower than Warren, tho. Hope they have good hospital systems.
Well stated and of course well written article on the mask issue. Agree 100%, also a YMCA member and I was not aware of their policy on masks. Thats not surprising, since I am ready to leave the Y after 30 plus years after numerous issues I have encountered. One being communication.
