Philadelphia will reinstate its indoor mask mandate as cases rise

Chomsky said:
I've always been a sociable person, and actually enjoy crowds in leisure activity.

Yesterday, when tossing my mask for good (I thought), it was really glorious feeling. I realized how much I enjoyed hanging-out without mitigation, talking and laughing with others. Plus, it was a perfect day weather-wise. It was like the elation of the first nice day pre-lude of Summer (which it was), but on steroids!

Then this morning, came the realization that the mask will need to go back on in public indoor situations. Argh!

I hate crowds and find most people self-absorbed and annoying. Covid took nothing away from me but it did add the concern that all these self-absorbed people would spread it because it is too much to ask them to make sacrifices for the good of others. Covid has brought out in people what I already knew was there and didn't like. These are the same people who drive too aggressively and don't respect personal space in the checkout lines.

Considering, it's good that they do it NOW rather than when there is massive death.

Why did you capitalize "NOW" since it isn't starting now, it is starting on April 18. The virus is real, the politics are magical.

People you just should collectively not do it.

This is the type of situation that requires civil disobedience pressing you to wear stupid talisman that don't do anything should be out of the purview of the government.

What's more important to you; political posturing or your nation's health?

"...don't do anything...?" Perhaps you might explain why, where restrictions on mask wearing have been lifted, rates of infection are rocketing.

Well the things you should do is wash your hands cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough.

Not sort of thing not participating in screwball superstitions may not be doing something that you think will work but there is nothing outside of religious belief that makes you think that it would work.

See post #34 and quit this dumb evasion tactic. Your whining about 'superstition' does not reflect the reality. Admit it; you're simply stubborn and anti-anything the government suggests-especially if it's a Democrat government. Am I getting warmer?

I won't perform for your fear.

If you're afraid of me stay the hell away from me I'm not changing my habits to make it easier for you to stay away from me that is your problem.

So angry, so bitter. I feel for you...:LOL: Nobody's afraid of you; simply attempting to educate you-and clearly failing to get you to understand the simplest of concepts.

Call me whatever you want. I won't comply.

Fear of a hideous, suffocating disease which, if it doesn't kill you can damage your organs for life? No, unlike you most folk are simply using common sense to avoid infection-something you are evidently lacking. "I won't live in fear". Macho posturing won't save you from infection; masks can.
