Some folks on here act like there has never been a pandemic before. If they are as old as they should be if they live in The Villages, then they have lived through several pandemics and probably don't even remember.

Saying "we are a war with the pandemic" is just a saying or theme, not a declaration of war. But, I guess some that have never had the privilege of serving their country on the battle field like to fantasize that they are fighting a war, while safely tucked in at home.
There's a difference between "I don't want to wear a mask" and "You don't have to wear a mask if you don't want to" ...

and "you're not ALLOWED to wear a mask."

In Marion County, they've opted to eliminate your freedom to wear a mask.

So much for "mah freedumz."
