Also, F Tucker Carlson. The idea that he has a national platform is disgusting.People who are fully vaccinated against the Covid-19 virus don’t need to wear face masks when walking, hiking, biking, running alone or gathering in small groups outside, federal health officials said, taking a major step to ease pandemic restrictions while encouraging more people to get shots.
The same applies to dining at a restaurant outside, and to small outdoor gatherings that include some unvaccinated people, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday.
Yet vaccinated people should still wear masks in public settings indoors and outdoors where there is a substantial risk of Covid-19 transmission, such as concerts, sporting events and other crowded gatherings, the CDC said.
The fully vaccinated should also wear masks at indoor gatherings with unvaccinated people, visits to a barber, hair salon, shopping mall, museum, movie theater or crowded house of worship. Vaccinated people should also wear masks if singing in an indoor chorus, the CDC said.
Well, your state might continue to VIOLATE your FREEDOM and require masks in public. These are only recommendations; each state is going to do their own thing, based on local conditions.
Very much looking forward to not wearing the neck gaiter along on every run, esp as the weather warms.
Well, you’re probably right and I should put my celebratory FREEDOM FRIES away and continue to stick to wide open roads where I have plenty of room to give others a wide berth. I live outside of Portland, OR, and my county is apparently moving to EXTREME RISK today.Smoove_B wrote: Tue Apr 27, 2021 12:34 pmWell, your state might continue to VIOLATE your FREEDOM and require masks in public.

Can we start a GoFundMe to help relocate people that need to move to somewhere that isn't crazy?A private school in the fashionable Design District of Miami sent its faculty and staff a letter last week about getting vaccinated against Covid-19. But unlike institutions that have encouraged and even facilitated vaccination for teachers, the school, Centner Academy, did the opposite: One of its co-founders, Leila Centner, informed employees “with a very heavy heart” that if they chose to get a shot, they would have to stay away from students.
In an example of how misinformation threatens the nation’s effort to vaccinate enough Americans to get the coronavirus under control, Ms. Centner, who has frequently shared anti-vaccine posts on Facebook, claimed in the letter that “reports have surfaced recently of non-vaccinated people being negatively impacted by interacting with people who have been vaccinated.”
“Even among our own population, we have at least three women with menstrual cycles impacted after having spent time with a vaccinated person,” she wrote, repeating a false claim that vaccinated people can somehow pass the vaccine to others and thereby affect their reproductive systems. (They can do neither.)
In the letter, Ms. Centner gave employees three options:
Inform the school if they had already been vaccinated, so they could be kept physically distanced from students;
Let the school know if they get the vaccine before the end of the school year, “as we cannot allow recently vaccinated people to be near our students until more information is known”;
Wait until the school year is over to get vaccinated.
Gotta make that money.“COVID-19 is now a managed public health issue in Tennessee and no longer a statewide public health emergency,” Lee said. “As Tennesseans continue to get vaccinated, it’s time to lift remaining local restrictions, focus on economic recovery and get back to business in Tennessee.”

It's certainly not a sign that one should be running a school.hitbyambulance wrote: Tue Apr 27, 2021 1:44 pmactually believing this claim is a symptom of mental illness, i feel“Even among our own population, we have at least three women with menstrual cycles impacted after having spent time with a vaccinated person,”
As a side note, there's been a crowdsourced (legit) study that was started by two scientists that started hearing anecdotal commentary from numerous women about how the COVID-19 vaccination seemingly impacted their menstrual cycles. After doing some research, they (the researchers) determined that no one conducting any of the official studies related to safety had included questions about changes in menstrual cycles as part of their overall analysis (which seems like a HUGE oversight).hitbyambulance wrote: Tue Apr 27, 2021 1:44 pmactually believing this claim is a symptom of mental illness, i feel“Even among our own population, we have at least three women with menstrual cycles impacted after having spent time with a vaccinated person,”
I know it's easy to just roll our eyes at "Doctor Rogan". However, he is Spotify's highest rated podcast with millions of listeners who - for some reason that I can't understand at all - hang on his every word.Spotify’s Joe Rogan encourages "healthy" young people not to get a coronavirus vaccine. His show is Spotify's most popular podcast.
“If you're like 21 years old, and you say to me, should I get vaccinated? I'll go no.”
I think of this tweet often in these moments.Skinypupy wrote: Tue Apr 27, 2021 1:59 pmI know it's easy to just roll our eyes at "Doctor Rogan". However, he is Spotify's highest rated podcast with millions of listeners who - for some reason that I can't understand at all - hang on his every word.
I assume that this school was founded as an educational community for people who believe hippie nonsense, it's just that the hippie nonsense hasn't previously interacted with an issue of national importance before.Isgrimnur wrote: Tue Apr 27, 2021 1:49 pm When the parents are paying $15-30k per kid, you think what they want you to think.
That might be a subconscious reason I've been avoiding going anywhere myself, Remus. I am afraid I'm going to randomly get mouthy because my levels of disgust for people that can't be bothered at this point is off the charts.I swear one of these days I'm going to end up in a viral video over masks.

It's pretty obvious that the WH press corps severely misses Trump and is being pushed by editorial forces to manufacture click bait. At least it isn't the Murdoch-sphere style where they manufacture stories about migrant children being handed books by Harris (NY Post) or Biden saying that people shouldn't eat red meat (Fox News).LordMortis wrote: Tue Apr 27, 2021 2:06 pm Reporter to Biden:

I raised this issue in the Viral Economy thread.

Some business owners put up signs about people not wanting to work because they heard that in the derp-o-sphere. As far as I can tell we still haven't seen any *actual* evidence of it in the jobs data. Also the idea that people are living their full lives on a $1400 check and some unemployment seems...dubious but we're not a serious society that you know thinks about things anymore. Long story short - it's probably bullshit.Smoove_B wrote: Tue Apr 27, 2021 2:53 pmI raised this issue in the Viral Economy thread.

No, it all makes sense. First, you pay workers to stay home. Then you ban hamburgers and turn everyone into a soy boy. Just wait until you see step 3!
Yup - all playing their PS5s...wait no...they can't get those...um...some doodads. And the soy boys are changing their pronouns because of the powerful course of female hormones. Which of course means they go to the "wrong" bathroom and that forces beleaguered public servants to throw beer at tables where children are seated. That feels like a sound theory.
More to the point (and to reiterate complaints I've seen here):Yet those guidelines also are at odds with recommendations from New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, who said Wednesday the state is not updating its masking rules. Murphy said all residents still will be asked to wear masks at all times indoors unless they’re eating, as well as outdoors, unless people can maintain social distance.
“The only wrinkle between what we’ve been saying from Day One and as I understood the feds saying yesterday is they’ve added that you need to be vaccinated to (go maskless outdoors),” Murphy said during his daily news briefing. “We’ve not had that as a requirement, and I don’t expect that we will.”
The rollout of any new CDC guidelines often has caused “initial confusion,” said Stephanie Silvera, an infectious disease expert and professor at Montclair State University. The government needs to work on finding methods to “translate this complicated information into ways that are more easily understood,” she said.
“These issues are complicated and nuanced, and most people just want to know, ‘Can I take my mask off, yes or no?’” said Silvera. “And the answer is sometimes yes. It’s not an A or B situation.”
