They must watch the msm.

I live in Washington and work in Fayette and know lots of people in Greene.

Life is pretty much pre Wuhan flu.

Nobody even talks about it.

Would be interesting to see how many people test positive after they've had the vaccine.

I travel internationally. Some countries will be waiving the negative test requirement for entry and will allow those vaccinated to enter. Hence my testing will be less.

I’m calling BS on this article.

‘Life is pretty much pre Wuhan flu.’

are you allowed in retail outlets and grocery stores without a diaper...? because if not, then it’s not ‘pre-Wuhan’...

are the shopowners in the western counties more lenient than the eastern ones...? I can assure you that in Lancaster county, you would be hard pressed to shop without a rag across your face and mouth...

‘Mask no mask petri dish experiments...’

has it been your experience that people out and about the streets and sidewalks are continuously spitting or coughing out their inner fluids as they make their way throughout the day?...because if this is is not your experience than your mask ‘proofs’ have no relevance at all and are examples of superfluity at is finest...

of course, if that is your experience, I must say you live in a coarse segment of our society...

Oh, yes.

Walmart says you have to have one to enter but half take it right off and no one says anything.

Not required anywhere else.

Allegheny Co still requires them but I've been in businesses there that don't care.

Bars and restaurants are busy.

I wasn’t even aware that there was a mandate for people to wear a mask while walking down the sidewalk, just inside grocery stores and such.

‘I wasn’t even aware that there was a mandate for people to wear a mask while walking down the sidewalk, just inside grocery stores and such.’

quite clearly you haven’t been paying attention, because the mandates baldly state that inability to maintain social distancing outdoors requires a mask, and passing by someone on a sidewalk clearly does not maintain distancing...

but, let’s take your riposte at its face value; I then ask again, is it your experience that people in grocery stores and other retail outlets are spitting and coughing their inner fluids on any consistent basis whilst they are passing you by in the aisles...?

if that is not your experience, well, you know the rest...

Nobody is doing that around here. But that would make sense in some places. But let's set that aside and get to the logical fallacy that is your counter argument.

Non-sequitur. Respiratory droplets were clearly evidenced via the various techniques via normal breathing and speaking. Coughing and spitting is not a requirement to spread respiratory droplets.

‘Respiratory droplets were clearly evidenced via the various techniques via normal breathing and speaking.’

so its your studied opinion that someone walking past you, whether outdoors or in a store aisle, is, in the two or three seconds it takes to complete that action, has placed you in imminent danger of contracting a lethal pathogen by virtue of inhalations and exhalations through his/her nostrils (which are of course necessary to live)...?

you are of the belief that respiratory droplets from an exceptionally brief passing encounter from a person breathing in the only way he can possibly breathe, requires a mandated masking diktat in order to interfere with that life giving exchange of air...?

tell us, so we can be enlightened also, how far these deadly droplets from normal exhalations from the nostrils travel in the air...

Do you think they just fall to the ground like a dropped ball? Exhaled droplets stay suspended in the air for from several minutes to a few hours depending on their size, velocity, trajectory, air currents, etc

I want you to know that, after careful consideration, I deleted all the meanness out of this post just because I'm glad you gave me the opportunity to point this matter out. Thanks man.
