CDC lifts mask restrictions for those fully vaccinated

[Hay Dude]

Doesnt pass the smell test, but it’s great to know the flu has been eradicated

"Fully vaccinated people can resume activities without wearing a mask or physically distancing, except where required by federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial laws, rules, and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance."

This applies to indoors as well as outdoors.

COVID-19 Vaccination

Huh, I resumed activities before this fiasco even started without wearing a mask. Can count on one hand how many times I wore a mask in the last year-ish.

Yeah, I saw that too... Don't see how they are going to regulate it... or even tell who is vaccinated or not....

Just like my local Menards does. Claim to be vaccinated to get out of their stupid mask policy, they demand to see your card stating you've had the vaccine.

So what happened to the regular flu ?

It died, you didn't hear?

Wow. This is amazing.


2000 flu cases this year v. 38 million last year.

That is hard to believe.

Well, when you stop testing for the flu the numbers are destined to drop considerably. When's the last time you heard of ANYONE getting the flu test since this stuff started? Flu numbers would be at normal rate if the C19 test worked for both Flu and C19, but they're only looking for one thing, C19 numbers.

I know right, so glad something else with a 95% survival rate is gone!

That 2000 number has got to be BS or some cow-town in no-wonderland. Up in the big city north of here, they're still getting over 200 per day. The guy is an "emeritus"--He's probably senile.

What I heard was you must be fully vaccinated for two weeks not to wear a mask. As already stated, how will anyone know? Then you have babies and kids coughing sputie everywhere.

I'll still wear mine and continue my disinfecting routines after going out.

So I fly on American Airlines a lot. More than I ever want to. From the time you enter the boarding area until you leave the airport it is one huge announcement about how you have to wear a mask, what type is allowed, how you have to wear it and you can and will be prosecuted if you fail to do so, as mandated by federal law. Now my question is when did a federal law pass Congress that mandated masks because I can't find one. Nor can I find a crooked politician that will touch the issue with a 10 foot pole. All I can find is the CDC recommendation. When did the CDC become a body that can make a "law"?

Pretty soon you’ll have to show your proof of vaccination card before entering a business, getting on a flight, getting a hotel room, rental car, etc.

Eventually everyone will be forced to be vaccinated or else they won’t be able to accomplish their necessary day to day tasks.

And those stimulus checks, yeah you’ll need to be vaccinated to be eligible to receive those as well.

I hope I’m wrong...

Its about time a governor took control of the unemployment fiasco.

Expanded unemployment benefits are out. Return-to-work bonuses are in.

Gov. Gianforte will end expanded unemployment benefits in favor of a one-time $1,200 bonus for Montanans who re-enter the workforce.

When people started to allow them to mandate how they live their life.

I would be perfectly fine with the free money ending. I see no reason to ruin my kids & grandkids futures for a few hundred dollars. There are PLENTY of jobs available for those that were put out of work. Hell, local fast food places are always hiring around here. Crapo Bell cannot even stay open normal business hours due to lack of employees. But then again, why work when you can sit at home and collect more money those actually putting the hours in.

That's not going to happen. That "card" is part of your medical records. No one can just ask to see it without a release from you. And it's not a form of ID.

There's a whole slue of Constitutional reasons why you don't need to prove anything. Of course, businesses don't have to let you in the door either.

Yeah I agree, however there are a lot of people that live off of handouts from the government every month... I’m sure they’d like to continue to be ‘stimulated’

Unfortunately... I don’t think the government really respects the Constitution very much anymore.

They’ll make a new law and deem it necessary for public health and safety.

Anyone putting public health and safety at risk will be dealt with accordingly. All the sheep will flock to this new law and back it up / participate.

Again, I hope I’m wrong.
