Now, now as you say, we don’t know about the making a statement.

Hence, the "perhaps"

Wearing a mask offers protection albeit less in a restaurant because you take it off to eat. The key is the viral load or how much Covid enters your nose and mouth. Covid enters through the nose and mouth and if you are vaccinated your body begins immediately fighting the virus. So most people who are vaccinated will fight off the Covid virus before it travels to the lungs. Same with the polio vaccine. It enters the body but if you are vaccinated the disease does not spread to your brain and spinal cord. Hence you don't suffer the effects of polio. The greater the viral load the more your body has to work to fight it off. Everyone should have a right to protect themselves and if they want to wear a mask they should be able to wear a mask. If you have a relative or a close friend who has a compromised immune system as in my case a sister in law who is receiving treatment for cancer then by all means order take out. Do not go to restaurants and other crowded public places where you take off your mask. You can get Covid in your nose and mouth that you can spread even if you are vaccinated. The viral load will be less than a non vaccinated person but when being near a loved one who is immune compromised you want to be as safe as possible. And shame on any place that does not allow people to protect themselves by wearing a mask. My gosh they say it is ok to bear arms but you can't wear a mask to keep from getting a deadly virus. What gives????

Probably because a mask will not prevent you from getting a deadly virus. That's 1+ year old news.

Bearing arms won't prevent you from getting a deadly virus either. And in fact, it won't prevent anyone from walking up behind you in a restaurant and shooting you through the skull. IN FACT - it'll make it a lot easier for that shooter to do, since he's allowed to bear arms.

Wasn’t it CNN report?

Proven cheaters and liars which reflect’s on their ability to be unbiased when reporting there news opinions.

We can suspect other news sources, but when you caught there no doubt.

We've taken two Physer vaccines. Last week I asked my doctor if we should take a third. He is not allowed or does not want to take the time to say DUH I DON'T KNOW. I assume all will get the same information. A trip to the grocery store where we are forced to get our drugs. They are pretty good. I just find it weird to get drugs there. We were told they cannot give your the third shot they will get instructions early Oct. My point the people in medicine do not know what to do. Imagine a restaurant.

What I think you meant to say is that YOUR doctor doesn't know. All other well informed doctors do know what to do. The information is readily available to them (and you) at CDC and Johns Hopkins.

Is it your position that a mask won't give you 100% protection, or that a mask won't offer any protection at all?
Does it matter what type of mask one wears?
Also, whose science are you choosing to believe?

there is no law preventing the owner of this restaurant from being a jackass. He was well within his rights to be a jackass, so he chose to be a jackass.
Given the number of jackasses in the population, he will likely gain more patrons from being a jackass than he will lose.
Nice business model.
