Keep wearing your masks, as much as it sucks. It sucks even more when it gets warmer/hot outside. But, just do it.

Not sure why this isn't promoted more and fought less...  people want lives to go back to as normal as possible.   A mask is a bridge.

And some teams might be playing without half their starters, it's possible.

it will be shut down if it comes to this

It was better than the day prior for FL. Tuesday was highest count ever, but was much lower on Monday (of course).

Positivity rate is hovering at around 4 percent, which is up a little.

Deaths are way down. 6 people died Tuesday, bringing the total to 3,018.

Illinois had 87 deaths on Tuesday, bringing its total to 6,507.

2700 new cases reported today, versus 2500 the day prior. Tuesday revised to 11 deaths. 5 deaths yesterday. Hospitalizations are generally flat, with a lot of capacity available.

No orders. Strongly encourage old folks over 65 and those with weakened immune systems to stay home, but don't force anyone to do shit. Literally 74% of coronavirus deaths were 65 or older. Another 23%+ were those 45 or older. Less than 1% of deaths were 0-18 years old. And not even 3% were 18 to 44.

We stop being a bunch of little pussy ass pansies and power through it. That's what we do.

This.  Stop relying on the government to make your decisions for you.  

It's simple...

Masks aren't magic. Masks won't 100% prevent you from getting the virus. They won't 100% prevent you from spreading the virus. They will help, but no guarantees.

So the goal isn't to analyze this from the "me, me, it's all about me" perspective of "should I wear a mask based on my own personal risk profile?"

The idea is if we ALL wear masks, then we'll inhibit the spread greatly. And if we inhibit the spread greatly, we'll protect those vulnerable populations much more effectively than telling them to go hide in their homes--because they need food, they need to go to doctor's appointments, etc. They're going to interact with the public to some extent, even if they're trying to minimize it.

It's about helping the rest of us, not just yourself. 

Yeah, too many think  the face mask is to protect the wearer, and they get to where they don't care and stop wearing it.  There is a lot of resistance to wearing one from some folks.  I understand they fog your glasses and can be hot, but I wear one any time I'm around a lot of people.

  I'd love to be shirtless and have no shoes, but we all agree with that standard when entering most businesses.   This is temporary.  I think people, in general, are assholes.   We were born bad and have to work at being good.  

I think, in general, some people are nice, and some people are assholes.

But we all agree to live in this society so there are times when we have to sacrifice for the common good.

Businesses need to require masks, and enforce it, even if the government isn't mandating it.  We the people need to make businesses understand this is our expectation of them.
