I am not sure if that is true. Other factors may be far more important than mask rules. Beisdes the states with lax mask rules were often the ones with low death rates.

The stats I used Paco are the cases / million on Worldometer by state. Up to date to July 28. Google Covid Worldometer if you aren't familiar with the site. They update the site on a daily basis and have almost every country in the world. If you click on USA it will bring up the data by state. It is in excel so you can order the data by any column by clicking on the top of the column. If you haven't been on it before be prepared to go down the rabbit hole.

only an idiot would believe you are safe if you got vaccinated. most people realize that you are safer if you got vaccinated.

to me it is like saying you are safe driving if you wear a seatbelt. no, you are safer.


The USA is full of idiots. Look how many idiots thought they would die if they or someone else was not wearing a mask.

Vaccine mandates are popular.

Don’t let the “loud minority” tell you otherwise.



For me, the airplane one is a no-brainer. Of course you should be vaccinated if you want to fly.

Good luck if it’s not FDA approved.

I am not surprised that you go for the "no-brainer" solutions. Those of us with brains usually prefer more thoughtful solutions.

God forbid a new and dangerous virus ever starts out in Trump country. They’ll all be screaming about the government forcing them to do something rather than follow basic precautions.

If that’s not proof of low IQ…then good grief.
