Sounds like a bad time to drop the mask mandate. Hopefully the governor listens to the CDC and reverses his decision.
Of course the Corona Bros are back, when the numbers go their way. Hey Wes, can you explain why the numbers in MI are through the roof with your Democrat Queen and a mask mandate in place?
chuck explain what you mean by “when the numbers go their way” who are “they” and what way are the numbers going? When you can answer that we can unpack the rest of your statement and explain to you what is going on.
Well Chuck, Michigan’s problem is that there are a lot of residents there like you. They choose to think the virus is hoax and won’t wear masks or get vaccines. Masks need to be worn until everyone who wants a vaccine can get one. Two weeks after all of those people are vaccinated, we can get rid of masks. That’s all assuming the virus doesn’t continue to mutate and make our vaccines worthless. Get your Republican friends to get a shot if you don’t want to wear masks and endure more shutdowns. Tough it out for another month or two. Wearing a mask isn’t that difficult.
Uh, vaccinations are available to nearly all with a pulse. Vaccinated people don’t spread the virus. At this point if you choose to not get vaccinated it’s on you, and the masks are useless virtue-signaling.
Vaccines take 6-8 weeks to kick in, so masks need to continue until that happens.
But otherwise – 6-8 weeks after March 31st, unless there’s some whack mutation that renders vaccines useless, everything should be opened up. After that point, if you don’t want to get vaccinated, it’s on you.
“democrat queen” . . . . can the condescending and negative language cease. The governor in Michigan can define policy but she cannot make people wear masks.
Would “republican king or queen” be appropriate references. Neither party has all answers. To err on the side of conservative is still better for everyone’s health.
The SD governor (not a queen perhaps?) chose to keep the state open. Granted SD is generally a low population and low density state outside of Sioux Falls and Rapid. And SD posted absolutely horrendous statistics regarding infection rates. The choice was hers. And it was made perhaps considering the statement: Give me liberty or give me death.
The mask mandate was flouted by many.
Once the mandate ends those who wish to cease with mask wearing can immediately do so and be completely compliant with state policy. Those who wish to think of personal health and also be considerate of others’ well being can continue with masks. Those with absolutely fear a mask-free environment must choose between staying home or venturing out.
Perhaps the behaviour of many Michigan residents is the issue, not that of the elected governor. Indiana certainly is not a shining star of health, safety, well being, or sound government.
