I love being free to make informed decisions.

freedoms lost or surrendered will never be regained,,, if you don't like dining in restaurants, stay home,,, if you don't like guns, don't buy 1,,, we could all behave as joe biden & stay in our basement all day long - that's living ????????????

Lion?
 

Actually, the Governor is “somebody’s” trained pet monkey, hoping to get a job with an organ grinder if “somebody” gets re-elected.😳

I have the same concerns as this person. A mask helps all of us and we also have the option of going out. Some of the answers given were not necessary.

Good one!

Windguy: Did you ever consider the fact that these restaurants are going broke? You don't want to go....don't. They'll have plenty of business once the birds start coming back, and no I am not concerned about their concerns. And as an added incentive to stay away, I will be one of the faceless cozying up to the bar....a full bar.

I thought political issues were banned???????

My wife and I feel the same, like living a little more safe for noe

Coffeebean we agree, things will start to return to somewhat normal after the vaccine is available. The mask issue is a different story. It is well know masks do not protect the person wearing the mask. Just Google the size of the virus and the size of weave in a mask. Masks do trap some of the virus in moisture droplets? I have not read how much is trapped, what percent? If not trapped in moisture droplets the virus just goes thru the mask. Make up any number of the percent of virus attached to moisture, maybe 10% maybe 50% I don’t think we know what that percentage is? So what ever that number is, the moisture with the virus attached, escaped around the mask? I wore a mask for 37 years in the operations room and on occasion I had to tape the fit around my nose so my breathing would not fog my glasses. My point being water vapor escapes around the bridge of the nose, who know what escapes around the sides and bottom of the mask?Giving you the benefit of a doubt and any amount of the virus is captured in the mask, who does not fiddle with the mask, take it off and lay it in the console of your car or just place it on the kitchen counter ready to use the next time you go out, or just put it in pocket or purse. I would go as far as to say wearing a mask, fiddling with the mask or handing of a contaminated mask as I just describe may even aid in spreading of the virus, I don’t know but its a thought. Wear a mask if it makes you feel better, go out and eat or don’t go out and eat, or go out and eat wearing a mask, glove, face shield and a surgical gown. But wearing a mask to protect yourself is useless, but the average person wearing a mask to protect others may not be all it’s cracked up to be. I am not afraid of the virus, I surely don’t want it and the chances of getting it is extremely low and should I get the virus there are treatments available. I like you want to see a vaccine hoping things will return to normal.

And me.....they’ve been home for months anyways, right?

Over 205,000 dead now WITH MASKS AND SOCIAL DISTANCING! This is not like the flu.

Back to physical school clases might have worked in Jan 2021, IF much expensive preparations were finished like precautions, building changes, rooms made larger, and more outdoor classrooms. It is doomed to failure with today's lack of preparations. The motivation for it does NOT seem to be for the greater good of the society, children or their parents.

The parents should say, "No Way" to regular school openings, which will just be another Super Spreader event.

Anyway, the next election will depend on how the WHOLE country reacts, not just FLORIDA. Florida is an important state, but not completely determinative of a national election.

We do not have the level of compliance to slow the spread of this virus. Too many people are anti-maskers. There are too many gatherings of too many people not wearing masks. We will never get a handle on this virus with the non compliance we have here in America. Sorry to say.

I agree, unless separated we will not go to an indoor restaurant. I feel nothing has changed as far as the virus goes. We are 60+ a bit overweight & my husband is diabetic, we don't take chances.
I know that a lot will go out and I think that is great I just need to be more cautious.

One can only hope the vaccine and herd immunity will get it done.
