There has been increasingly visible media promotion of various municipalities reinstituting mask recommendations to battle a new BA.2.86 covid variant.
Today, the New York City Dept of Health became the latest large metropolitan area to recommend the return to face masks; however, no government mandates yet.
[…] Staying up to date with COVID-19 vaccines, along with other proven prevention tools – like masking, testing, and staying home when sick – continue to be our best defense against COVID-19 and other respiratory viruses. (link)

QUESTION: Are you starting to see increased emphasis on mask wearing in/around your local area?

NE TN. No changes here. Yet. Area of “higher” edikayshun, and large medical presence, so who knows. A few small blue pimples in a sea of red. Regardless, I will not wear one.
This is a test pilot and a bad one. The illegal alien population boom in NYC already has people pissed off. This is going to backfire HARD.
Your lips to God’s ears.
And they are bringing in garbage that has not been identified by competent scientists. Maybe considering what is running amuck there, maybe Sundance is being a little harsh on Gotham.
It might be a good idea for them to mask up. Make sure it is a designer one. Lol
“It might be a good idea for them to mask up.”
————————————–
Why?
When appearing before congress, Herr Fauci couldn’t point to a single study that said masks work. Do you have a study saying masks work?
It was a joke, like boarder security.
Maybe we’ll see more of the guy who taped a package of bologna over his nose and mouth to protest the mask mandate!
And now add the most sacred Call to Prayer. Means to an END. They kill infidels meaning Christians. How is that
unity?
When Islam destroys all infidels it will be united in eliminating incorrect strains of Islam.
Islam and Communism both will have succeeded when Earth is as lifeless as their bloody Moon.
BUT, no matter how bad it gets, whether you or I or anyone here makes it or not, the Lord will leave a remnant.
He always does.
One of the many reasons I’m cheering for Russia these days.
I agree, people just won’t do it this time, but those who have already been vaccinated are the target for this virus.
If you don’t grow elderberry, or Goji berry, get some Elderberry gummies, and dried Goji berries.
2 Goji berries daily, and 2 Elderberry gummies daily.
Goji has 500 times more vit C than an orange, and Elderberry coats the cells to prevent virus’s entering.
Do it now, and make it a regimen for life!
I grow and make all my own. If you want to grow, Willis Orchard Online has excellent prices and superb trees.
Even taking Qucertin 500mg daily since Covid
I’m rural so don’t encounter many folk, and don’t really want to. I have 2 neighbors at a good distance and that is it!
Plus zinc.
“This is going to backfire HARD.”
——————————-
Hardly likely, considering how willingly the sheep fell into line last time.
Another valid reason to skip NYC
You spelled nuke wrong.
I just sprayed my adult beverage.
🤣 🤣 🤣
Ain’t it fun to laugh!?
Laugh more, pray, and play your favorite music—a tonic for our times.
In the Houston area, I have noticed that many Asian people, black people and some elderly are starting to mask up.
Here too in Greater Vancouver B.C.
Few folks wearing the “ face diaper” of those that do the majority are Asian or
fat whites.
Cheers!
same in Monterey County, CA
Black, Asian, fat whites are higher incidence of type 2 diabetes. If they are eating crap and on meds, they will succumb!
florida panhandle walmart near me, I see a lot of older black folks masked up in the store
I have noticed that, too. Why them?
It’s a cult. Some of them have never stopped and probably never will.
100% agree-I work in a Detroit hospital
In black people they have high genetic incidence of type 2. In Asians they eat pure carbs via rice and sugar drinks so type 2. Obese white are also subject to type 2. Its a killer!
Tuskegee Experiment. I’m not a mask wearer, however I give them a pass.
Haven’t seen any in Flower Mound or Denton, TX areas. Doesn’t matter to me—I will not comply.
Denton was pretty conservative in the 70’s?
At the DMV in Ky. all employees masked. I assume it was mandated or strongly suggested by the Fascist party Gov. Beshear.
None of us plebes had masks on (yet).
Make YET…..I WILL NOT COMPLY….
You and I won’t but lot of folks will gladly get their masks on.
Yes. Streamer convention in seattle requires mask and vaccine.
https://meetups.twitch.tv/events/details/twitch-seattle-presents-day-zero-seattle-community-meetup-powered-by-twitch/
What’s going on truly is insane.
Masks, the shot, the virus itself.
What a scam..
Cheers!
based on some of those photos of the “special guests”, you’ve got some at-risk vaxxx-risk folks attending
i’d avoid it, becuase they’re probably shedding spike proteins
Dekester knows the score.
If by scam you mean tyranny, murder, and theft, you’d be correct!
🙂
I know, so sad. Having a diaper on your face for almost 4 years! – Oxygen Deprivation.
They look terrible, a terrible defeated look. I hate the democrats.
Face masks are one of the fastest ways to get TB
I think James Woods has been seeing the same thing about the increase in programming, so he has posted several eye-opening videos on his Twitter account.
Always all about the money, isn’t it.
I live in Collin County, a somewhat Republican Suburb if Dallas, TX. Nothing from the local government.
However ….
There was a suburb of San Antonio, TX that has gone mask bonkers.
The COVID revival story as been blared across the all the MSM news channels here in TX and carrying the stories of COVID measures being deployed outside TX. No doubt the Media will revive the mask and lock down pressure on the State Government as well as provide cover for the democrat run TX city-state bastions to close down.
The Medical Insurance Plans, Medicare and Drug Stores are doing their part with phone calls and Text Messages proclaiming free vaccines and disease spread.
I suspect NY City will mandate soon to serve as the “Example” and then all the other democrat run bastions will do the same to emulate the “caution” shown by NY City.
In Texas there are rather large counties of more than 2-3+ Million People centered around major democrat run cities that have democrat County Commissioners or Judges. Each of these places also has major college campuses that enroll a total of 50-100,000+ students.
The following is the Major City-County affiliation. the height of the shamdemic the city and county offcials from these areas went mask and lock down crazy as well as publicly called for their Republican neighbors to do the same. They also publicly resisted Governor Abbott’s feeble efforts to keep TX Open
Dallas – Dallas County
Fort Worth – Tarrant County
Houston – Harris County
Austin – Travis County
San Antonio – Bexar County
El Paso – El Paso County
So far the stores and gym, I frequent, have actually seen a decrease in the number of mask zombies, lately .. from < a few to near zero.
The few mask zombies I have seen are either well over 60 and/or “Amish”.
I’m really surprised the Amish would do it?
The Amish know what the government is up to. Don’t forget the words of Kamala “We will reduce the population”
Only at the the markets that require them. Otherwise no. The Amish carried on with life among the crazy “English” as we outsiders are called. The Amish married, went to school, church, funerals, visited carried on with life and shook their heads at the English.
May have been code for “Asian” because you will not find Amish in Collin Co.
Yep, code word used on other cites for people who are not “white” and often darker than “yellow”.
The unvaccinated/ uninoculated illegal aliens are bringing all kinds of communicable sickness into America. Biden and Democrats are fine with this. Kevin McCarthy and House Republicans meanwhile can’t even find the courage to impeach Myorkas.
This is just the most natural way of preparing our immune system against future pandemics without those mRNA vaccines!
It is not about courage. They have no courage. They have no honor.
Pas du tout.
…les salopes!
My hubby had knee surgery at a outpatient center and only one nurse wore a mask
none of other staff were masked up.. Even the doc when not operating weren;t wearing mask
here in CT.
I went to doc office the other day and no masks there either..
Some people are wearing them in the stores but not too many.
They want more division so they will get the mask wearers to accuse the non wearers of spreading the covid by being selfish, ignorant etc. The same crap as last time.
No masks where I live in NW Nevada. We are a Constitutional County and do not, and did not comply with mandates.
I went to the doctor today here in the Lowcountry of SC. There was a sign on the door to wear a mask. I didn’t have one and was prepared to leave. The black girl who was checking people in was wearing one.. I saw nurses and doctors in the back without masks. The doctor never said anything to me about a mask nor did anyone else have one. It’s been my experience that many black people here wear masks from the beginning of COVID. I think the check in girl was making a statement..
My neighbor tested positive for COVID yesterday north of Houston. They released another wave just in time for elections. Can’t be counting the ballots with a pesky auditor.
Why is your neighbor taking a ‘COVID’ test? The COVID tests are misuse of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR Test).
Here is the inventor of the PCR Test Kary Mullis describing mis-use of the PCR test attempt to diagnose HIV.
He died before Event 201.
No one is poking my brain with their diseased swaps.
There is a definite uptick in covid cases again. It has been making people sick and knocking some off their feet, but I haven’t been hearing of severe cases of hospitalization and death.
Well, maybe your neighbor shouldn’t have been north of Houston? Yuk, yuk.
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/03/us/politics/exit-polls.html
Here is the key nyt article which states people who voted for trump cared about economy in 2020, but people who voted for Biden cared more about Covid.
So in my opinion, This is the reason Biden will create a new Covid pandemic before the 2024 election .
Who’d have thought that phony ballots cared about covid? Will wonders never cease.
Go to The People’s Cube and find the photo of Biden’s head with flesh colored Virus spikes sticking out of it and the mask he’s wearing. It’s awesome.
Look for the 2024 campaign poster with the caption Making America Scared Again.
Seattle suburb. No increase. Only a few have continued to mask.
I will not mask. If called out, I will tell them I’m not a communist and I will not support communism.
I don’t think most understand what this is all about.
If they say more, I will tell them to wear two. One for them and one for me.
We need to use our mouths and just say no.
SW Washington State has been pleasantly mask free. We don’t think too kindly of the Seattle liberals here, so usually do the opposite of what they say… RESIST!!!
Not yet in western NC but I did notice some people a couple of weeks ago wearing brand new masks and also their children. There are some that never stopped wearing them..they have brainwashed many elderly and blacks. They have them convinced that they are more in danger.
I think it is interesting that I have a friend, in her 70’s, has a bad heart, is over weight, etc…and works in an environment where she interacts with lots of people and guess what??? She has never had COVID.
Parents and their children who were wearing masks were probably leaving camp and headed back to their blue towns unless they were from liberal Asheville where they have purple hair and awful attitudes). I love my western N.C.
If you are a Prayer Warrior, Pray Pray and Pray and Pray they do not put people in Senior Rest Homes or Care in Masks.They canot go thru that again, and Locked down so as not to see Family. There is a place in Hell for all of them
I couldn’t have a funeral for my son…
Upstate, SC – very few seen around here. My fathers home health Physical Therapist wore one inside our house this week, and I immediately asked her if she didn’t read the side of mask box. I swear she said, ” you mean the warning that it doesn’t stop the spread of Covid or infectious disease? I know”. If I do see them in the store, I still caught forcefully in their direction. Old habits hard to break.
No doubt that NY is filled with mindless sheep who will do as they are told … not do what science and common sense tells the rest of us.
Covid Hysteria 2.0: The Empire Strikes Back
I’m with the Rebel Alliance
I will not comply
If it gets to the point where I would be required to mask to shop, etc., does anyone know where I might purchase masks which I have customized with rather provocative slogans?
Yes, I purchased a couple masks on Amazon that said “ communism sucks “
Guess what? It worked. Nobody would even get close to me. 🤪
Mail in voting. Hello!
The variant “was recently detected in NYC’s SEWAGE “ … pleeezzz- what a load of crap ..
Yes, obvious increase in voluntary covidiot maskers. So many of them are from China that sometimes I wonder if the CCP planted them all here just for this purpose. No offense, just a honest and obvious observation in SoCal
In any case, I can immediately determine with a great deal of certainty who was born in the land of the free and who was not.
pitty the fool who dares to force this on me or to anyone who attempts to discriminate against me over it.
Who benefits from destroying China’s economy? China didn’t release it.
They dont see it that way and the only thing released was a lie/hoax. First order of business was to assist in the coup of our America first President. Plandemic was born.
God Bless President Donald John Trump.
Well, I’ll take the upside on this. Lots of ugly mugs I won’t be subjected to.
ThanX liberals.
(Oh no, I offended ugly folks….sorry)!
Love the Cat in the Hat! Read it many times as a child.
BUT…. Seuss (Ted Geisel) was a liberal Democrat, who “portrayed the fear of communism as overstated” (Wikipedia).
Also hated Jews.
he wasn’t a fan of black folks either
but, thanks to him I learned to read by the age of three
it was a different era and I give him a pass
So? Are we supposed to boycott Seuss?
I thought liberals were trying to cancel Dr Seuss a couple years ago?
Nah
Southwestern Illinois: Yes. Doctor’s office check in questions re CV19 symptoms, contacts, out of the country. People wearing masks at Lowe’s and Walmart. Just stab me.
I live in Fredericksburg, VA but my job takes me all over VA. From Stafford on down south, life as usual. Fairfax and Loudoun counties I’m seeing about 20% masks, so far – alone in cars, while walking, while riding bikes, jogging (!), and shopping. No business takes me to Richmond, so can’t say there.
Eastern SC. LOTS of mask wearers in the metros and almost all are demographics with dark melanin. No doubt in my mind certain groups will follow mandates like the sheep they are.
Far more concerning to me is how this will be used as another strain on social cohesion. People here already look at each other with distrust. I’ve seen more fights in parking lots and in stores than I did when lockdowns started. Wearers versus non-wearers are going to be at each other too.
This won’t end well, but I think that’s the plan. They need chaos to call off an election.
Running the lower 48 I’ll tell you mask wearing never fully went away. Pockets of mentally ill puppets never stopped wearing masks. It’s like they hide themselves behind a mask or are ashamed of the way they look.
Yep.
Central Illinois.
No widespread publicity for Covid yet, but has been mentioned on media outlets.
Hospital Sister network of 17 hospitals in IL and WI undergoing serious “outside” computer systems attacks.
Another large hospital system undergoing a reduction of staff.
Both of these hospitals have been on a build and acquire mode for decades.
One Joliet hospital had the nurses on a 4 day strike as they are down 350 nurses, dangerous staffing levels.
The changes in health care were planned for back in the early 90’s. That is where the build and acquire comes from. Health care changes were going to happen, whether we wanted them or not.
As a former health care worker, I saw what was coming in the 1980’s. There is no health care anymore. Not as we used to know it….
In SW Missouri, I have seen a few, and even seen one idiot riding in her car alone with a mask. (Prius of course). Most people around here have had enough of the CDC. So far the hospitals haven’t announced , but I wouldn’t put it past them
Last week the US had 21,000 cases/day. The Case Fatality Rate for the Week was 0.0047.
In Tennessee, since the beginning 93% of the deaths are 51 and older. The 51+ are about 32% of the cases. It is a disease of the elderly and infirm.
21,000 cases/day… So what? A meaningless statistic.
They they test for it in the sewage waste waters….
The hospital I work at is making us wear a mask in the patient rooms, now.
A new Covid variant?
Well, I’ve got a new mask variant.
It’s the Lone Ranger mask.
That’s the only mask I would ever wear.
😉
Thank you, Kemosabee
Do you think the “It” clown mask would be acceptable to wear? 🤣🤣🤣
South Jersey no mask mandated
A wee bit: At my workplace, we’ve been cautioned against mocking those who now decide to mask up again.
Screw them!
No offense, but I’ve already made my mind up.
Probably finishing my professional career anyway in the next few months about 3-4 years before I had planned; and admittedly it makes it easier, but I’m not taking no more shit from anybody about vaccines, masks, etc ever again. Didn’t fully comply and fought the first time around.
And I just had a doctor’s appointment today about a bunch of stuff. (All good)
I’m literally done with these MF’s whatever the consequences.
F ALL OF ‘THEM!”
I’ll make the damned VA give me an oxygen bottle before I’ll wear a mask anywhere again.
Used to put up with it at the VA hospital, but my brain is oxygen starved as it.
No matter how flimsy the mask, one minute in I’m about to drop.
May as well extort some assistance out of the cruel bastards.
Stick it to them!
And while you’re doing it, first time they f with you, start raising hell in front of everyone like one of the leftists, screaming that they’re trying to kill you.
Force their hand, brother!
I don’t do unhinged.
The Derps have ways of putting one away, and taking rights away.
The VA is mere window dressing on Lincoln’s promise to care for those that bore the battle.
So whatever they say, when I am faced with talking to one of the two people on the whole place who are masking up, I cover my face with my hands and mumble. They inevitably say “I’m sorry, what did you say?” I repeat the procedure. They repeat. I eventually shrug and write on my notepad, “I can’t understand you, send me an email.” It makes me laugh. The breathless email I eventually receive makes me laugh harder.
But wow, the maskees DID make it hell on earth for those who wished NOT to mask. Sounds kinda backwards, but whatever floats their boat – it’ll sink this time.
NY. FU!
They lie with ease. ‘Proven prevention tools like
masks…’
They know that’s a lie.
Read the box.
But can *they* read?
Against the law in Texas. Effective today. The state cannot mandate.
Banning COVID-19 mandates: Senate Bill 29 bans the state from enacting mask mandates, vaccine mandates or business and school closures to prevent the spread of COVID-19. In 2020 and 2021, Gov. Greg Abbott imposed these restrictions at the urging of U.S. and world health officials as a way to rein in the deadly COVID-19 pandemic and protect particularly vulnerable Texans from contacting the virus. Many conservatives opposed the restrictions, saying they were needless or overused. The new law makes exceptions for certain entities, such as prisons, hospitals and assisted living centers or nursing homes.
I’ll collar before masking.
Allegorically speaking! Well played!
Durham NC area. More are wearing masks.
And now the tv is starting to say that the hospitals are filling up with the virus. But a few weeks ago the tv was saying the hospitals were at 99 percent capacity and not to worry because that is normal for hospitals. How short our collective memory is.
But it is time for the yearly marketing of vaccines. Lots of money in those.
Bored fat nurse dance off season again?
Don’t the sheep know this is the seasonal flu? The kids go back to school, bring it home and millions of people get sick…It’s not rocket science…
Duke hospital calling the shots there.
Port Townsend Washington State. Seeing more masked ppl in grocery store. All shapes, sizes and ages! Thought it might be because of the smoke conditions but it’s clear today so who knows?
No more than the 5% outliers who are still masking, thank God, and this is Crimson Red Star deepest state. It is interesting that Biden spins a new ‘recommended vaccine’ and NYC also ‘recommends’ a mask. Is this for the general NYC population, or also intended for recent cultural enrichers?
I’m near Richmond Va. Those Rich A**holes North of Richmond haven’t spread this mask nonsense here yet. Of course, we have a Repub Governor this time, not Blackface Northam, so most likely Youngkin will not push the Covid propaganda. But I could be wrong.
Funny you mention, Richmond, Flova. Tabbed and learned how to play the Oliver Anthony song ‘Virginia’ today.
Even though I am merely from Massachusetts (albeit the real Appalachian Western part of the state), I think I more or less understand.
We live in between Richmond and the swamp … I’ve noticed some wearing it again. Sigh.
I have not. I am in central VA.
Hello neighbor. I’m closer to Lynchburg. I wonder what Charlottesville looks like?
They are all hiding under their bed now. 🙂
I’m closer to Harrisonburg, and I’ll be honest, I’ve not seen many masks here yet. At least no more than I’m currently used to seeing.
I’m curious about downtown Richmond and Short Pump they seemed to hang onto masks a lot longer than other areas. More like Fairfax or Arlington than the rest of VA.
My nephew went to JMU last week and no masks in site.
Also in central VA. I have noticed an uptick in masks in grocery stores.
Apparently West Palm Beach school board cancelled a football game with the Palm Beach Garden team on the basis of a WuFlu outbreak (location unspecified) and they are going to re-schedule at Vero beach. Saw it in a tweet. WPB.gov is a den of DNC scum and villany, so, the paranoia/hypochondria makes perfect sense.
There’s something going around over here in SWFL schools that is mainly the result of the illegals/migrants/AG people coming into the area schools. Mostly a GI thing and not specifically respiratory. When those people come in every bug from South America and the rest of the filty world comes in. Nothing new.
BTW: WuFlu cases in Hispanics were 3x that of non-Hispanics during the covidiocy in Miami Dade county. Go next door to Hendry, Monroe, and Collier and no elevation at that level. Just things they never tell you but pop right out in the state database numbers. Right when it was getting good DeSimp and crew decided to shut down the database.
There’s another angle to consider. People who had their immune systems wrecked from the jab(s) are getting sick more often. I wonder if they are masking in an attempt to not get sick once again? I pity them (while not forgetting the heck many of them put us through). I can only guess they will be full of fear when hearing the threat of another variant. Their fear could help propel the next round of lock downs to new heights of tyranny.
BTW, I’m a never-jabbed and never-masked girl and will stay that way. I can’t imagine how it must feel to be jabbed. I am sad for them. They are bearing the consequences of their actions.
Liberal sister-in-law got original shot and all the boosters she could get.
She’s had covid four times since.
Did that finally Red Pill her or is she still off the deep end?
Totally off the deep end. She’s convinced it “wasn’t as bad as it could have been without the shots.”
I told her the lack of oxygen from all her mask wearing has given her brain damage. She won’t speak to me now.
Is that a good thing???🙃🙃
Keeps me from having to tell her she can’t visit my kids while she’s shedding spike proteins.
Hahaha! Same experience here. Every single person I know that got the job also got the Rona and was very sick, but you know, at least it works some of the time. Do I need to say I’m being sarcastic?
Study finds gradual increase in COVID infection risk after second vaccine dose
https://www.bmj.com/company/newsroom/study-finds-gradual-increase-in-covid-infection-risk-after-second-vaccine-dose/
I agree with you and it particularly makes me sad re the children. their joy has been stolen and replaced by fear.
These people need to read the data and learn that mask wearing will make them sicker.
Masking does not protect you from a virus. What does it take to get people to understand that the porosity of a mask, holes, are bigger than any virus?
I saw a guy today in a store, mask strapped on tight and wearing plastic throw away gloves. WTF?
they are bearing the consequences of our corrupt government’s health agencies actions
Well put, Tammy. I can’t imagine, either. I don’t think I could sleep at night. I’d be terrified of either dying in my sleep or waking to some mysterious debilitating condition.
The wife of a dear friend in California has just recently been afflicted with a severe ear ache out of nowhere that won’t go away. She was vaccinated. None of the doctors they’ve seen can figure out the cause or the cure. She’s on leave from work, very depressed. Which, of course, affects him and their children.
Perhaps it’s something else and I may be out in left field, but the vaccine would never occur to them as a cause. It is sad, indeed, what people are going through.
