Who’s Up For Wearing Masks In 2022?

These would be the masks that make a lot of people feel safer, but, don’t actually make a damned difference, if we’re looking at the the exposure and death numbers

Americans may still be wearing face masks in 2022, Fauci says

Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Sunday that he won’t rule out Americans still needing to wear masks in 2022 — even as the country returns to a certain degree of “normality.”

When asked on CNN’s “State of the Union” whether masks will be necessary next year, Fauci replied, “I think it is possible that that’s the case and, again, it really depends on what you mean by normality.”

The Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said he doesn’t know when the country will return to pre-pandemic life, but that he believes by the end of the year “we’re going to have a significant degree of normality beyond the terrible burden that all of us have been through over the last year.”

“As we get into the fall and the winter, by the end of the year, I agree with [President Joe Biden] completely that we will be approaching a degree of normality,” Fauci said.

“It may not be precisely the way that it was in November 2019, but it will be much better than what we’re doing right now.”

Right now there is a big debate over herd immunity

Johns Hopkins Doctor Thinks COVID Will Be Largely Gone By April, Half of U.S. Has Herd Immunity

Dr. Marty Makary, a surgeon and a professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and Bloomberg School of Public Health, believes that the coronavirus will be “mostly gone” by April.

In an op-ed published by The Wall Street Journal on Friday, Makary argued that half of the U.S. has already reached herd immunity because there are more coronavirus cases in the country, possibly 6.5 times as many, than the 28 million that have been reported.

Combined with the 15 percent of Americans who have already begun receiving the vaccine, the doctor argued that normal life will return by the spring.

But

The U.S. May Never Reach Full Herd Immunity Against Coronavirus, Former FDA Head Says

“I don’t really think we’re ever going to reach full herd immunity,” Dr. Scott Gottlieb told Margaret Brennan on CBS’ Face The Nation Sunday, when asked about vaccinating children, though he didn’t elaborate on why. “This isn’t going to be like measles or smallpox, which just sort of goes away. Covid is going to continue to circulate at a low level.”

While some want things to get back to normal, or as normal as can be, others continue to want to spread fear and keep restrictions going, the better to get people used to being dominated by government.

On Thursday, the seven-day rolling average for new coronavirus infections had fallen by a staggering 43% in just two weeks.

When it continues to decline, what are the political elites going to do?

    Teach will never admit to believing that covid was not fake news and was not ant worse than the flu
    It seems the inmate change deniers are still trying to deny how bad covid is

    Teach
    Surgeons and nurses wear masks in operating rooms NOT to protect themselves but to protect their patient
    If you had covid would you want to possibly prevent transmission to someone else ?
