On the podium with all those people----absolutely the right thing to do (except garth). How can you equate the balcony alone with visiting a hospital???? I know you know better than that. We will never get COVID under control by relying on masks. Social distancing is the most important. Masks indoors or in outdoor crowds are important. The vaccine is important. But like most pandemics, it will fizzle out in time.

Where have I heard that Covid will fizzle out in time as an excuse for inaction before?
An example of WHAT... an example that getting used to wearing a mask as a part of how you present yourself to others might save a life. It is modeling a behavior. The present occupants of the White House have chosen to model mask wearing as one of the best practices for controlling Covid. The more often they are seen masked the more "normal" mask wearing appears. IMO it is far better that our leaders, AKA example setters, show us good behavior even when it is not medically needed.
