CDC: Nearly Every American Can Drop Wearing Masks Indoors

COVID-19 transmission levels, however, remain high across the majority of the country.

The CDC is really on a pre-election roll. This is from a few days ago...

The CDC has decided to stop tracking and releasing COVID-19 case and death data on a daily basis. These metrics will now be updated only once a week, the agency said today.

      We can rest assured that CDC surely went to extreme lengths to be certain any wave would happen after election day.

      The inevitable mass death and disablement will be waved away by libs stating that “you’re exaggerating” and “I don’t know anyone in hospital or that’s got Long COVID, this is alarmist disinformation to harm the economy”.

      MFs I work with didn’t even know that a new vaccine is available, let alone get it. I’m so tired of people talking about “during the pandemic” and how they’re now “post-pandemic”. I’m so tired of people saying “yeah it didn’t affect my family that much, we all just lost our sense of smell for a few weeks”, as if neurological damage is no big deal. Mask wearing has utterly collapsed in California in the last couple of months.
