Biden to ask Americans to wear masks for 100 days
this will go over really well....

Why do they always say "in a single day"?.... These are reports that lag behind the actual events. On top of that you have the backlog from the holidays and just before that is being worked on. It's ridiculous for them to word it like it's real time. Heck, that information could be 3 days worth of processing in one state, and 5 in another, for all we know.

I have 2 elementary age kids in DL and my wife teaches Middle school. Distance learning is crap, my kids hate it, my wife works about 14 hours a day between working on the kids school and getting her lessons ready for her class and I know 90% of the parents probably are not able to put the time in we do to at least keep my kids learning a little. Just look at the failure and absence data from these districts that have been on DL all semester.

I have often wondered why the complete refusal by some to wear a mask? (I HATE wearing mask, but do so for my job and my fellow American) My knee jerk reaction is that if Trump had encouraged it early on when scientists said it would help, we would have majority of US wearing them...I say this mostly because the reaction to Covid is partisan - 90% Dems are "concerned" about Covid and only 30% Reps are (according to a civiqs poll, which I imagine is pretty darn accurate).
My parents, who are up there in years and proud Reps, still think Covid is no more serious than the flu, thinks the liberal media is making up the high numbers, that this is just a way to control us, that wearing masks is stupid, etc. On a scale of 1-10 of how concerned about Covid they are, it's a 1!
Sorry, getting back to my original question, many people I hear say that "well masks don't work, cuz people who wear them still get Covid." I say, well it surely helps though, and helps to stop the spread; they say "well if they work why do we have so many cases and deaths?" I say cuz not enough people wear them and even if they ALL did, we would still have cases and deaths, but not nearly as many, and the argument goes round and round....
Anyways, I have said this before, but I often wonder if ALL (or at least 96.2%) citizens wore masks religiously for about a month, would we be in a better situation? If numbers didn't improve, then at least we could all say, OK, masks don't help, and we could all have a big ole 'burn your mask' party.
Anyways, crap this is a longer post than I wanted...my bad...but, if you feel strongly either way, why or why not wear a freakin' mask????
