Default Masks required even after getting the vaccine?!?!WTH!!!

As presented to us at work citing the Mayo clinic and the CDC as sources.

They just never want it to end.

Myth: If you get a COVID-19 vaccine, you won’t need to wear a mask and can safely return to pre-COVID levels of interaction with others.

Fact: While the vaccine may prevent you from getting sick, it is unknown at this time if you can still carry and transmit the virus to others. Guidance is, therefore, to continue to wear masks and practice all other safety protocols such as safe distancing, frequent hand-washing, and existing remote work policies.

I suspect there's a lot of people getting a kick/rush out of dictating to others what they can/cannot do.

For those types... they never want it to end.

This country has done a horrible job rolling this vax out and educating people about it.

Here’s what needs to be understood. The vax does not make you immune to covid. You will still get it and pass it to others. The vax will prevent you from getting as sick as you would without it. In some ways, it is more of a therapeutic. It does not work the same way that, for example, the smallpox vax does. This virus is going to be around a very long time.

If I have to where these stupid masks eveyrwhere even after getting the vaccine, well then why get the vaccine. Think I'll opt for the God given immunity system I already have.

The first shot is something like 50% effective too, the second puts it up over 90%.
Saw an article that said that they are doing a study on a 3rd dose of one of the vaccines.

Masks aren't going away anytime soon.

Exactly why they can stick that needle up their asses.

Here is a bulletproof vest. It doesn't work, but you have to wear it.

Manager, well it's for safety and blah blah blah

Me: Well, if that was true, you'd also be six feet away from me wearing your mask over your mouth and nose."

So I go to check out behind that all too effective piece of plexiglass, but have to stand to the side of it to use my debit card

Manager comes up to me again and says I really need to wear a mask because blah blah blah.

I point out to him that there are multiple customers nearby without them and he is being paid to run a grocery store....not to be a public health official which he clearly is not qualified to do either the same as them. Mother****er was fuming and I could see people snickering at him as I turned around to leave. Yep, I did contact Publix corporate but got no answer back. Typical.

today's challenge: find a peer reviewed paper showing that wearing mask prevents either 1) you from getting the cooties, or 2) you from spreading the cooties.

i've tried, nothing yet.

just a lot of hand waving and "we think/believe", well, i believe otherwise, so now we're even.

I don't have the time or energy to argue with someone in any store etc.
If that floats your boat then good for you ...

everytime mask requirements increased in my state... it was followed 10 days later by news of... record set for new cases.

Governor increases mask wearing requirement due to this increase; and people wearing increased. 8-10 days later: new cases now at all time high.

Again the governor increases mask requirements; and I could see the increase of mask wearers. 8-10 days later: new cases higher than ever before

Governor makes statewide mask requirement; and I witness that 98% of people now wearing masks. 8-10 days later: new cases reach highest level than ever before.

and yet another 8-10 days later: new cases increase at alarming rate.

What does this data tell us about the need for masks

if you honestly applied "science" to this data, you would find that there is an inverse correlation of masks and infections. when what they tell us is that there should be a direct correlation of masks and infections. ergo, stop wearing masks that increase infections. Science!!!

but no....... they are stuck on stupid, and will not budge.
