          Our memorial day hockey tournament in Phoenix metro just got cancelled for this year (it’s a pretty big tourney). The organizers said there just wasn’t enough teams willing to travel to AZ right now because of COVID. That was before the limits were lifted.

              Exhibit 39,173 of how we are a garbage country full of selfish and racist assholes.

              https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...source=twitter

              A Mexican restaurant in Texas kept its mask rule. People threatened to call ICE on the staff.
              T
              his week, after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) said Tuesday that he would rescind the statewide mask mandate while the vast majority of residents remain unvaccinated, the tough choice to enforce public health guidance fell to business owners, and Picos announced it would continue requiring masks. But, after such a challenging year, the reaction to their decision was disheartening, co-owner Monica Richards said: Several people sent hateful messages through social media and called the restaurant, threatening to report staffers to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

              Of course it's in Texas.

                I feel bad for the workers in the restaurants and bars down there. They will lose their customers if they require masks when the other places don't and they will be the most at risk. My wife is a bartender and I'm glad that we live in a state where the Governor is not crazy. I'm sure things will open up relatively quickly but she should be fully vaccinated by then.

                    The latest CDC mask wearing recommendations (or not wearing) for people who have been vaccinated are encouraging. We're getting there slowly but surely.

                      I can't wait until I don't need to wear a mask at work all day, but I understand why the vaccinated still need to wear them for now.

                        Re: Covid-19

                        My company has mostly everyone working from home since 3/11/20. One year anniversary upcoming.
                        We have MS Teams meetings all the time. I never have my camera on because, well because I’m pretty ugly and no one has to see that.

                        I have a corner of a spare bedroom upstairs set up as my office. Upstairs away from my granddaughters (4 and 1 and a half) downstairs. It is great to see them nearly everyday.

                        Anyway, my boss hired a new manager several weeks back and had an MS Teams meeting to introduce her. The boss wanted all our cameras on so the new lady could put faces to the names.

                        So when the meeting started, I didn’t put my camera on. Everyone else did. My boss told me to turn it on.

                        Well, I put on a jacket and tie for the meeting. I also wore a mask. I told them I didn’t know the meeting was mask optional.



                        Today I get the J&J v’cine. Hopefully the Johnson’s do me right.

                          Same here.

                          I don't wear a mask to protect myself; I wear it to protect others. I question the efficacy of masks, but even if it reduces the risk of transmission by a percentage point or two, I think it's worth the minimal inconvenience. So, despite my vaccination, I don't plan to put my mask away any time soon. But the CDC is saying small, unmasked, get-togethers of people who have been vaccinated are now within the guidelines. That's a pretty huge first step.

                            Purely anecdotal but I work in an essential healthcare biz and staff has to work in each other's air space for extended periods. Masks are worn 100%. We had a staff member test positive a week ago after his daughter became ill. He eventually developed symptoms as well. Not another staff member has tested positive. I believe in the efficacy of masks. Not perfect but damn good.

                              You're in healthcare. That involves people who know how to wear and how to treat their masks. Where I question the efficacy is with the average person, who still can't seem to get it right after a year of mask-wearing. I still see entirely too many people with their nose exposed, or (my favorite) wearing a mask around their neck. They'll touch the mask with their bare hands, and then touch something on the grocery store shelves. I've seen disposable masks on people that look like they've been re-used for months. You KNOW people are tossing their mask, along with their car keys, on the coffee table when they get home.

                              They would be much more effective if people used them properly. Don't touch the mask. Cover your mouth and nose with it. Treat the used mask like Haz-Mat.

                                Sadly, if the message had been that wearing masks would protect oneself rather than protect others, more people would wear masks and wear them correctly.
