The Queen is fining members of the House who are following the CDC guidelines that say you don't have to war a mask anymore if you've been vaccinated. I think the majority of those who have not been vaccinated have already gotten Covid, so who is at risk?
I'm going to keep asking these questions because it's gotten to the point of being ridiculous. We know Pelosi is a nutjob, but seriously, why not show Americans that the vaccine is the answer and not continue this bullshit?
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
OMG......We agree. The guidance is all over the map and a master plan STILL does not exist. I just
do my little part, if the establishment wants masks, I comply, if they have granted maskless, I am elated.
I STILL do social distancing when I can and I will not be going to our summer series concerts in the park...
small, I KNOW u interactions. BUT, I am not a social butterfly.
There is bound to be friction as the rules change. Heck, this time last year Fauci was recommending that people shouldn't wear masks because mask wearing encouraged them to touch their faces more often.
Hopefully Speaker Pelosi lets the masks come off. Everyone in the chamber has had their jabs, or at least most have.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
The CDC guidelines are that fully vaccinated people can stop wearing masks, not everyone. 25% of Congress have NOT been vaccinated, so that is probably why Pelosi still has a rule for Congress to wear masks.
According to the CDC if you have been vaccinated you have no risk of getting infected with Covid.
All the democrats as you say have been vaccinated, therefore they are not at risk.
If some Republicans do not want to receive the vaccine, that is their decision.
Are you so insecure that you require everyone to get vaccinated as you did? What are you afraid of? That the unvaccinated will infect one another? That the vaccine does work as advertised by the CDC? Or that you have no confidence in your decision and require everyone to do what you did ? Cognitive dissonance perhaps?

I am concerned about my fellow Americans, specifically that more people will not die from this virus. It is idiotic that people, especially our leaders, are reluctant to get a vaccine that can save their lives, and the lives of their fellow citizens. It is now preventable.
I am hopeful that the nation will open up again, and some sense of normalcy returns. I am hopeful that people can find employment, that commerce can once again flow. To achieve these goals, we have to reach herd immunity. If 50% of Republicans refuse the vaccine, which I understand is close to a national number, then we will not get back to normal. It's as simple as that.

Actually no, we don't agree. If being vaccinated means you are not at risk of getting covid, that means the only people who are at risk are those who have not had covid and have not been vaccinated, therefore there is no need for anyone to be required to wear a mask. If an unvaccinated person with no antibodies is taking their own risk and is responsible for t heir own decisions.. this is still America.
