Wear Your Mask
Ten months. That is a long time to be in obedience to a plan that makes no sense. But since you are a lemming and follow without questioning, you are not being a game player.
The coronavirus is with us and is attacking us. I understand it is passed by droplets passed in groups. So it would be wise not to be in groups until such time as the virus is under control. But if we must be in groups, follow the rules and wear your mask.
Wearing a mask is a good idea. Especially in groups. This is only polite. But if you are by yourself, driving or walking for exercise, you may not need it. After all, you are by yourself and the virus is not outside your door waiting to latch on to you.
Recently a vaccine has been introduced. At the moment it is being given to first responders and hospital staff. Soon it will be given to the general public. Dr. Anthony Fauci says we may need to reach herd immunity before we can take off our masks. But I don’t see any wisdom in weqaring one in private or our own house.
It seems if we follow the dictates within reason, we should be on our way to controlling this virus. Not that we are going to make it disappear. P:oilio is still with us. We just have a vaccine for it so we don’t see so much of it. Lock Jaw is still with us. We have a vaccine for it. And Small Pox. I may be repeating myself.
The point is simple. We need to subdue the environment of viruses around us. In other words, subduing is not done by ignoring the guidelines set up by people who are trying to protect us.
Subduing is done by getting the vaccine for teh virus– in this case, the one that is being offered.
So when it is available and it is your turn, go quickly and start the two-shot process. The virus is worst than the shot, believe me.
Be brave. Follow the restrictions at the moment. The so called light at the end of the journey is dim but there. Don’t give up. And don’t be stupid and go out and get the virus. Be brave. Be safe.
