Kids will do mostly OK, as well as their parents and other close contacts.

Yes some people will die, yes some will severely sick but that is a risk I'm willing to accept for normal life.

No, I wouldn't wear mask nor would I force my kids to wear one.

I'll do as much as I can to re-normalize no mask.

We're still talking about a little piece of cloth, right? It still amazes me that people are willing to have [presumably other] people die over such a small thing. There are veterans who went off to war and died for their country, but these days, people are not even willing to so much as wear a piece of cloth. All in service of this nebulous concept of "being normal".

It's become political at this point. Vaccines, too. Funny thing is, even Donald Trump got the vaccine.

Are you aware of the huge death toll Covid took despite all the mask mandates? You don't sound like you're aware.

In the US, Covid took more lifes than WW2 did. Again, with mask mandates.

Are you aware of the Milwaukee Bucks winning the NBA Finals despite all the droughts in the western US?
