CDC, Nancy Pelosi Reverse Positions On Masking

Will people comply with new mask mandates? Tucker Carlson makes a good point, which you’re surely making in your head at the same time

(Fox News) Millions of children will now be required to cover their faces in school — this despite the scientifically established fact that masks pose a far greater threat to children than COVID does. Strictly speaking, as a scientific matter, this is lunacy. But there’s more.

According to an announcement by the CDC this afternoon, the administration will force masks on adults as well — including on people who’ve already been vaccinated. Pause to consider this for a moment. Americans were promised that if they took the vaccines, they could have their lives back. So by the millions, they did that. Now they’ve learned in the clearest possible way that they were lied to. They got their shots, but the Biden Administration has decided to continue to control what they wear, where they go and who they talk to. Why are they doing that? What’s happening here, exactly?

So, the White House and CDC are recommending that all the kids wear masks at school, despite all the science saying something different. And the administration’s response, through Jen Psaki (who wasn’t wearing a mask), is pretty much “because we said so.” Nothing of depth is offered. But, see, it’s not just for kids

(The Hill) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Tuesday reversed guidance from just two months ago by saying fully vaccinated people should now mask up in certain areas, underscoring the growing threat posed by a new strain of the coronavirus.

In updated guidelines, the CDC advised fully vaccinated people to wear masks in “public, indoor settings” in parts of the country with “substantial” or “high” levels of transmission. Agency officials cited data showing vaccinated people can spread the delta variant, which recently became the dominant strain of COVID-19 in the U.S.

Public health experts widely applauded the decision as the right move amid surging cases and with less than half of the U.S. population fully vaccinated.

These would be the masks that made almost no difference once the mandates were implemented, right? When China Flu exploded even worse than during the initial outbreak, right? How will this incentivize the unvaccinated to take the vaccine? If they can’t get their lives back, why would they take it? They aren’t going to consider that it would mostly mean that if they get the Delta variant of China Flu they will have symptoms like a basic cold, not end up in the ICU and potentially die. The problem with mask mandates is that companies will mostly go along, in order to avoid overbearing government.

House to resume mask mandate after new CDC guidance

Masks will once again be universally required on the House side of the Capitol amid the spread of the highly contagious delta variant, the Capitol physician announced late Tuesday night.

The resumption of the House mask mandate — just over a month after it was lifted — comes after new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) earlier Tuesday recommending that vaccinated people should wear masks in high-risk areas.

“To be clear, for meetings in an enclosed US House of Representatives controlled space, masks are REQUIRED,” a memo from the Capitol physician, Brian Monahan, states. (snip)

“For the Congress, representing a collection of individuals traveling weekly from various risk areas (both high and low rates of disease transmission), all individuals should wear a well-fitted, medical-grade filtration mask (for example an ear loop surgical mask or a KN95 mask) when they are in an interior space,” Monahan wrote.

First, you can bet Nancy Pelosi was behind this. While wearing a non-medical grade mask that does barely anything to stop Bat Soup Virus. Second, neither of the two masks Monahan mentioned are meant to truly stop COVID. N95’s are better, but, they are single use masks (both types are), and people will wear them for days and days. And, again, what’s the point of being vaccinated?

“Make no mistake — The threat of bringing masks back is not a decision based on science, but a decision conjured up by liberal government officials who want to continue to live in a perpetual pandemic state,” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) tweeted Tuesday night

About half of Republicans in the House are vaccinated. Will instituting a mask mandate entice them? If they want to take the chance, that’s on them. Back to Tucker

You just read it. Quote: “public health leaders in our administration have made the determination.” In other words, because we said so. That’s the medical justification for suffocating your third grader with a paper mask forever. “Public health leaders in the administration have made the determination.” They issue the rule, without explaining it. You then obey it. If you question it, CNN calls you a murderer. That’s how our government works. (snip)

So, a rational public health policy would look entirely different from the one the Biden administration is now embarking on. A rational administration would make vaccines available to anyone who wants one, and leave the rest of the population alone to live their lives — like they used to do in America back when it was a free country.

Just leave people alone. If they want to risk it, that’s their choice. I think it’s a bad one. If they want to ride without a helmet, that’s on them. If they were smart, they’d recommend distancing, which was seeming to work, along with the rest of the initial guidance: wash your hands, don’t touch your face, be careful.

    …again?

    Wind a coil of wire around each, and turn them into electrical generators.

    That would benefit the country more than either has yet done.

    I was just at LOWES a few days ago and they were GIVING away their KN95 stock for free. Now this.

    When people don’t wear marks or get vaccinated it affects others besides themselves
    That should be obvious to all
    Teach has never admitted being wrong about either the severity of covid or his support for the occupation of Afghanistan

    If that were true then why would the Junta allow illegal aliens to pour into our country UNVACCINATED. Then tell people like me who have very profitable businesses housing these illegals we can’t ask if they’re vaccinated? Huh? I can’t hear you!

    They are LYING TO YOU and you swallow it like it’s fine wine. You really cannot think on your own, can you?
