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?

I’m in Chicago and haven’t heard anything official yet. Too much crime going on AND people who poo pooed PDJT about illegal invasion and the wall are hopping mad about illegals getting preferential treatment right now.
I’m in chicago too. good point about the illegals. can you imagine overseeing the enforcement of the sanitary napkin face thingys with dozens & dozens of these poor people crammed into these police stations & other “temporary” housing facilities? unfortunately though at my office I’m sure 80% of my coworkers can’t wait to muzzle themselves again.
Don’t you love the illegals running the pop up barber shops in Grant Park and get ticketed for no business license.
Then the cop shop squatters, girls doing $5 dollar favors and the guys running dope business in the bathrooms.
New mayor BJ / “Don’t demonize” the youth, sues Kia because the “Kia Boyz” are stealing them and thus the crime numbers are up making the city look bad.
The street rats never quit wearing masks, that and a hoodie what more could they want?
New mask rules are just in time for the Christmas looting season.
What a country, what a city.
Love this Chicago tee shirt
In north suburban Chgo…masks are seen. Even for those driving in a car alone!
Chandler, Arizona….noticed more folks wearing them at Sam’s Club of late.
Not even funny.
I flagged this David above.
Same.
Enough folk recognize how dumb it is to post such things do the same and our Cat Herders will attend to the matter in due course.

RESOURCE: How To Use OSHA’s Own Rules To Defeat Mask Mandates From Corporations
Aug 30, 2023
Kristen Meghan, veteran and medical freedom advocate, joins Harrison Smith to lay out an actionable playbook for anyone who wants to peacefully resist the upcoming wave of lockdowns and mask mandates. You can find Kristen and her organization’s work at: wethepatriotsusa.org.

Wisconsin had the mask mandate removed, it did give that individual ‘power’ at County levels. My county in the SE did not mandate as did many others. There were those who wore masks plus individual stores were mandating masks. I personally did not shop at them. Have not seen any fearful maskers as yet, nor stores insisting on masking to shop. Have the big businesses completely recovered, even with the faux inflation price gouging, from the last self destructive financial losses! The Left destroys itself!
The way this worked before was “recommendations” resulted in Liberals getting laughed at. So they made them mandatory.
The problem the Democrats have is they are fighting the last war. People understand now that none of those stupid ideas helped. Sure, the ones who watch lots of TV and are easily manipulated might go along, but I think the overarching question most people will ask is “Why? I’m vaccinated?” And a LOT of people have figured out that the vaccines are a scam. That’s why we’ll see this crap in urban areas where the IQ’s are lower and Democrats will require masks as a show of party loyalty.
I had a lady at work just having FITS about getting COVID last month and having to go home for a week. (She really didn’t. She was fine and didn’t need to leave work. But she defaulted back to the old rules.)
She just couldn’t believe that she got COVID after being vaccinated. “Five shots! I’ve had FIVE SHOTS!” She kept saying this.
One of the guys I work with, a fellow traveler, started to say something and I shook him off. Later I told him “Don’t bother. Some of these folks are just too far gone to be talked to. They’re gonna have to figure it out for themselves.”
The thing we all have to do differently this time is non compliance PUBLICLY. Not just avoiding the grocery stores, but outright refusing to wear them.
Covid Commando!
5 shots make it so more more likely she will get Covid!
Five shots makes her an idiot.
I’m sort of sorry but I laughed out loud. Five shots!
My SIL has probably had more than five shots. She and my brother have taken every single booster offered. They still wear not one, but two masks when they venture out of their cocoon.
Right now they both have Covid, and they are in complete shock.
I’ve never been vaxxed and, unlike all my “vaxxed” friends, I haven’t had flu symptoms in years!
Right?!
Nashville: no visible coercion, but an odd uptick mask wearers. Not sure what prompted that.
Ditto. same here in Fairhope AL
If propaganda didn’t work, they wouldn’t use it. Remember, it’s as much a sign of political affiliation as it is blind obedience to the Government Party.
Virtue signaling to get it going again.
DC’s vision of “We the People”…
“Sugar! In water!”
We live in southern New Mexico – Las Cruces – and we see very few mask wearer’s. One of the waitstaff at our favorite restaurant always wears a black mask. We do not know why she does, nor do we care. Other than that, we see very few wearing a mask and quite honestly, we feel bad for them. But, whatever …
I think a newer, updated Covid booster is supposed to be out this month. Coincidence?
It’s all a marketing campaign for Pharma. Government pays the marketing costs and Government shovels money into Pharma to subsidize the shots.
Big Harma wasn’t even liable for the mandates. It was all a massive psy-op.
Big gov hired Big Harma to cull the herd. Big Harma first ensured they would not be held legally liable for vaccine injuries and deaths.
Big gov then promoted the shots for Big Harma and strong-armed the people to take them.
Southeast PA (an hour west of Philidelphia) ….
I went to a doctor appointment today and masks are still voluntary. None of the Healthcare workers inside wore masks.
No signs recommending masks anywhere else either (grocery store, etc)
East central PA (an hour north of Philly) here. Believe me, Joshie Shapiro is just itching to start tossing out mandates and decrees.
Nothing in the capitol of California, yet.
Newsom’s too busy greasing his hair and running for president.
Nothing new in Southern California either. Just the occasional, why is that guy wearing a mask in his car by himself with the windows rolled down.
Tim McGraw would say “the highway don’t care”

I am aware of no official direction to mask. However the eager beavers are wearing masks.
I think I will make som tee shirts using your homage to Dr Seuss with
to annoy the eager maskers.
Yes! They are *eager* for another crackdown! Tyranny is like crack to red diaper babies!
The cluelessly compliant crave constant validation and virtue-signal to achieve it.
Connecticut college town. At the eye doctor this week. 25% of people masked; on arrival in their cars. They look slightly spooked, hesitant when they entered. Waiting line setbacks are Pavlovian now, no markers or signs. Truly amazing. Zombie world. I need to get out less often.
You need to get the hell out of Connecticut. It will soon become a 5000 sq mi safe space for Coviidan mask-wearers.
Every breath you take
Every move you make
They want to be controlling you
Every single day
Every word you say
They want to be controlling you
Oh, cant you see
They want you all to belong to their collective sheeple we
To rule all your life how their hearts do ache
With every step you take
They want to be controlling you
That’s gonna’ Sting.
I know you’ll be here all week. 😉😁
I’ve seen masking In California ,
bandanas and masks while shopping.
I think they might be looters.
Haha!
Food for thought…the last holiday weekend of the summer…lots of get togethers…am wondering what the bookies are finding in the odds of increased diagnoses of covid, in about two weeks time?
Probably up by two or three pounds.
ugh. you reminded me that Thanksgiving and Christmas are right around the corner. our neighbors kindly invite us for dinner, and, once again, I will be the pariah at the table. gotta smile and wear it like a badge.
I had medical test yesterday here in DC area. They all had masks on and I was having trouble breathing. She told me if my O2 saturation was ok, I could tolerate a mask. I differed then when I got result, she’s said it was a “difficult study.” We’re going to have to comply to get medical care.
Yes. When I was in a Walmart market grocery store today, I noticed many employees wearing masks. I asked one of them why Walmart is making them wear masks? He replied the mask wearing is voluntary and he said it protects him from sick people.
The beginning of the slow creep back to Covid insanity is upon us.
Sick is already their state of mind.
I haven’t noticed an increase in Upstate S.C. In doctor office this week, it was ‘mask optional’. No employees or patients were wearing a mask.
I need to get home to SC!
Smiling faces, happy places!
Yes, I went to doctors office today and everyone was wearing masks; receptionist, nurse, doctor. Compared to this summer when everyone was mask free. And as I was walking out the doctor reminded me to get my flu and covid shot. Ughh.
Now, they are pushing the new RSV shots too for the over 60 group.
How can Moderna’s RSV jab be approvable?
The company’s own trial shows its shot caused 200 side effects (10 severe) for each RSV infection it stopped. You read that right: 200 to 1. RSV is a cold for most adults. Will regulators step up?
ALEX BERENSON

https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/how-can-modernas-rsv-jab-be-approvable
As demand for its mRNA Covid shot craters, Moderna is chasing approval for a new mRNA jab with similarly severe side effects – but against a virus even milder than Covid.
Winning approval for the jab, which reduces cases of respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, is critical for Moderna’s future. The company has told investors RSV shots could make $10 billion a year.
The only problem: data from Moderna’s own pivotal clinical trial for its RSV shot. The trial showed the new jab causes hundreds of side effects – including 10 cases of severe side effects – for each RSV infection it prevents.
If RSV were very dangerous, that side-effect profile might make sense.
But it isn’t. The Centers for Disease Control reports that RSV usually causes “mild, cold-like symptoms.”
As it pursues approval, Moderna has vastly overestimated RSV’s lethality. A review of death certificates found that RSV kills about 35 American adults a year – about as many as die in lightning strikes, and one four-hundredth as many as Moderna has claimed. (Yes, you read that right; Moderna has overstated adult deaths from RSV by a factor of 400. Proof below.)

FDA Fast-Tracks RSV mRNA ‘Vaccine’
By Dr. Joseph Mercola

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) — a respiratory virus that causes typically mild cold-like symptoms — has apparently been selected as the next invisible boogey man. Most children have been exposed to RSV by their second birthday.
The fact that most children survive past the age of 2 tells you something about the risks involved. That said, in very rare cases, RSV can progress to pneumonia or bronchiolitis (inflammation of the small airways of the lungs).
RSV Emerges Out of Season Around the World
(snip)
Like coronavirus, previous efforts to develop an RSV vaccine have met with failure as test subjects have a tendency to die or become seriously ill when exposed to the wild virus, thanks to paradoxical immune enhancement (PIE), also known as antibody dependent enhancement (ADE).

I have decided to more all my annual doctor appointments to spring/early summer.
We’ve seen an uptick of mask wearing in our little town on Lake Wallenpaupack in northeastern PA, 25 miles from Scranton.
Still have a steady influx of transplants from metro NYC into the Poconos?
I am not seeing an increased focus in the news in north AL. But, I don’t watch local news. Neighbors say middle school has lots of C19 but Grands elementary is reporting nothing. It makes no sense because those schools are siblings and nothing else. I did notice more masks but it was young male workers of all races as opposed to the elderly black ladies which was the most recent. blacks are not masked anywhere, Hispanics have never been masked here and whites not are masked except for the 20 somethings who I would say are under employed and they like it that way.
I am working at an out side art show in Sedona Az. Have seen several people walking around with masks. Not sure if they are tourist or locals.
I did a lot of camping in Sedona back in the 60s and 70s.
No roads.
No noise.
No tourists.
No masks.
No more.
The ones wearing mask are the ones looting the store’s.
Just normal Covid numbers
If the looters don’t come down with the covid it would prove! masks work.
But first, we need to arrest them, all of them, to make sure the study is accurate.
F.U.
I love how they don’t even try to hide that it’s a commercial for vaccines…
New York has the government it deserves.
I suspect the still sane there will not comply. That trick only works once.
Most of the blue face diapers boxes clearly state that they are INEFFECTIVE against viruses. What is the new variant? Must be some kind of insect or something. Then again, masks can’t read and can’t think. This only reinforces their uselessness!!!!!
Those blue face diapers and N 95 diapers are TOXIC
YES! I’ve pointed that out to folks, too. It’s clear that even the face mask manufacturers don’t want to lie and take a risk.
Saw a guy with a mask today in a grocery store. That’s about it for Vancouver WA.
Here in NE Washington seldom see anyone wearing a mask. Even when masks were required in many places by the fairy governor, people only put on masks to get in the door of the few places that required one. Most everyone took them back off once inside the door
The mask doesn’t work. Not even an N95. The N95 is supposed to stop particles, with 95% effectiveness, down to a size of about 0.3 micron, or 300 nanometers. The COVID virus is about 100-120 nanometers. So, go ahead wear a mask that is basically the same thing as putting up a chain link fence around your yard in order to stop mosquitoes.
Oh, yeah, and the “vaccine” doesn’t work, either. It never did, and never will. This is all about stealing elections. That’s all it is. The “new variant” is back just in time for next year’s election, just like in 2020.
It’s also about stealing FREEDOMS.
It’s about CONTROL.
I don’t see anything in this “order” about illegals. Are they masking or do they have some kind of protective aura like with regular CoVid?
Just some tourists and local communists are wearing them here in northern WY. No mandates.
I just won’t go anywhere I don’t absolutely have to go if they start this again here in Washington state (I’m sure they will).
Today I got news that a long time friend died after having been diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumor 3 months ago. He was likely vaccinated (liberal) and I’m suspicious. I won’t get another clot shot no matter what.
This is Dr McCullough’s protocol to get rid of the spike out of our bodies:
The empiric regimen can be continued for 3-12 months or more and be guided by clinical parameters: - Nattokinase 2000 FU (100) mg orally twice a day without food - Bromelain 500 mg orally once a day without food - Curcumin 500 mg orally twice a day (nano, liposomal, or with piperine additive suggested)
Find yourself a dr that prescribes Ivermectin. I did 🤷♀️
Me too
I have my ivermectin stash. 😉
My sister was liberal dem and took all the the vaccines. Trusted the medical establishment. She Died suddenly with glioblastoma in December. Perfect health til after thanksgiving. I am just waiting to hear some day that the vaccines may have caused her brain cancer
I can’t ask if he was vaccinated but I’ve got a bad feeling… he was a very healthy guy.
Sorry about your sister.
Alexandria VA: No mask mandates (yet). Cases are low. 2.5 hospitalizations per 100,000.
Mental Hygiene? Does that mean that they are brainwashed?

Yes. They are handing out high end packages of masks at a local food bank (associated with BLM). Manufactured by Hanes the underwear folks in NC. They are preaching it again. Big uptick in those wearing them.
Just in time for the election.
Lockdowns and mail in voting coming!
They think we are stupid.
Q: will the masses tolerate lockdowns again?
Yes.

They got away with last time, thanks to GOP complicity and conservative leadership indifference. So, how can you blame the Progs of trying it again?
Many folks will be lining up for Joedementia’s latest shot even before any testing or Dr’s recommendations.
I mentioned to a person that Biden was getting the new vax program going. They said ” I’m getting it”.
“I know you will” I replied.
Ive had that same conversation.
Nothing in Austin TX that I’ve heard of. Just the occasional sheeple walking around in them still from 2021.
My sister called this week and asked me not to visit her because the assisted living facility where she is is a patient is overwhelmed with new covid cases (Kingston, MA). She has lived there 3 to 4 years and went through the previous covid crises with mandated shots and masks and still caught covid. She is totally against the vaccinations and masks and will refuse anymore but she knows the pressure from the staff and peer patients will be overwhelming like it was last time. Nevertheless she plans to refuse and holdout as long as tolerable.
Texas Hill Country northwest of San Antonio. 70% Conservative area. See occasional mask. Our Gov Abbott signed a law this year that just took effect today concerning masks and mandates. None nada in Texas. Never again.
North of Charlotte area: a few with masks at the grocery store, mostly older. Had to laugh at a gentleman wearing a mask while pumping gas at Costco. Holy cow!
SE Az….
Very seldom see masks
here.
That is why yesterday when
I went into an office
and one of the new managers
was there filling in, all alone….and she
was wearing a mask.
I just asked her why she was
wearing a face diaper.
She had no idea what I was
talking about…face diaper?
I pointed to her face…the mask..
why are you wearing…do you
have some disease I should
be aware of?🤣🤣🤣🤣
The best she could come up
with is that she was going
to have surgery……
I just replied oh ok…just wasn’t
sure if you were diseased or
just weird. Good luck with
your surgery.
Then for the next fifteen minutes
I chuckled to myself each time
she slid her black satin material mask
up and down over her nose, under
her nose, readjusted the mask…about
one time per minute…or more. 🥴😖 🤢
💁🤷♀️🤷♀️💁 I was nice. Laughing
while asking her about her face
diaper.
Anyone here feel like we owe China an apology for blaming it for COVID?
Because at this point it’s more than obvious that it wasn’t China who released the virus.
It was CHINA AND THE USA
Our government HATES US.
In Omaha, I’ve noticed several workers at grocery stores wearing masks- even outside in 90+ degrees weather. Total nonsense. A few scattered shoppers draping masks on their chins, buy these types never stopped wearing them since 2020. We never wore them and notice many friends and family who complied in “phase 1” are adamantly opposed to this total nonsense now. We’ll see – so many are so pliable and frightened of their own shadows. We are strengthened by our faith – our rewards will not be in this life, and we will stand tall and true.
