Anyway, why NOT (?) continue to mask up and stay to CDC advice for 2 to 4 more weeks - just to see if cases in the US are headed up or down? You and I and others have done the CDC advice thing for about a year now. The point is to defeat the CV not just give up when so close. Someone said it is like "spiking the football on the 5-yard line when running for a TD"! CV is not BEATEN until it is BEATEN - when the graph approaches ZERO!
My response was to another poster and the post I responded to had nothing to do with masking. I was responding that it will not panic me if I'm one of the unlucky ones to contract Covid because the vaccine offers me protection from severe disease. There was no mention of masks between me and the other poster I responded to.

As an aside......I'm still masking all the time indoors and always keep my distance from others. That is not going to last forever for me though.
