A meme doesn't constitute an argument, HB.
True. It is challenging to respond in this thread where politics are not allowed even though my answer would not be political. Unfortunately it would be perceived that way.

let’s just say that the CDC and Fauci are not considered credible at all by many many millions of people who used to think they were. They have changed their position so many times without new data and consistently use the data they do have to interpret one situation different than the other.

Today Fauci said he was “hopeful” that mask wearing will not have long-term harm on the children in schools. In addition to being a new flip-flop it runs against what the science already has told us.

also, look at his reaction this weekend to highly attended events and you will see what is obvious about picking in choosing which events to condemn and which events to ignore.

I couldn’t care less about the politics if there are any but it’s easy to see why he is a laughing stock to so many people now.

Talking about actions, reactions, causes, and effects, policy, and policy changes, isn't inherently political.

Ascribing them to one party or another, or discussing our personal beliefs about the underlying political ideologies for various actions or reactions, is.

I think it's pretty easy to discuss the former without getting into the latter.

Edit:  I'm not talking about you specifically @Honestbuckeye or replying directly to you, just stating that I don't think it should be so difficult to discuss the events of the pandemic, and leave out the personal feelings and attacks on "the other team"

obviously, there is no "other team"

Fauci has been a mouth piece for the same team since the pandemic began at the end of 2019

We just postponed Disney to February.  Florida is a mess right now for the unvaccinated, and with three kids who are ineligible, we just couldn't risk it.  Hopefully they are cleared for the jab by then

How does forbidding mask mandates in local communities or schools make sense?

You see?  I kept OAM's actual, legitimate inquiry about policy, and deleted his unnecessary personal attack against a politician he dislikes.

That's how to do this successfully.

so here is my question

if there are 10 people in a working environment and all have been fully vaccinated

should they be required to wear masks
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

With what we know to date about the virus, the vaccines, and masks-- the answer is no.

Is everyone they live with vaccinated?
Will they be interacting with customers?  With those customers be vaccinated?
.
You see how it's all interconnected and maybe not just a "don't tread on me" situation?

They live with some who have not yet been vaccinated

so given that what is your answer

I'd need them to wear masks.  

But they might pout.
