  1. Good morning Brian. I agree there is extremism on both sides, given the duality of a two-party system. They overlap in the center, but the edges are far apart. If there were three parties, it would be like a three-leafed clover with three extremes. Nonetheless, it is up to the center to narrow the distance by rationally inviting and responsibly carrying the conversation. The edges, the extreme, are often irrational. Thank you.

  2. I’m grateful to every single responsible person out there who places the lives of his/her fellow citizens above their own personal comfort. You know who you are & Thank You 🙏🏼

    1. @Political Foolishness I guess you were destroyed. The putin parlor manager told you to move on. No wonder the republicans are done.

    2. @Peter Ritchie But you have NEVER wore a mask during the flu, which has slain too many that no one could possibly count too.

    3. @Robin Welty Democrats and Republicans are all talk and no action!!! The same old nonsense. “Foolishness”.

  3. My behavior hasn’t changed one bit.
    I wear my mask, avoid strangers and certainly crowds. In seven days I receive my second Moderna injection and I couldn’t be happier.
    But I will continue to wear my mask until everyone smart enough to get vaccinated has done so….
    Simply because I respect other people.

    1. @Liam Yu So most people weren’t respecting people for over a Century by not wearing a mask for the flu outbreaks??? Tragic, tragic as the great Mr. Omar (Ernest Lee Thomas) would say.

    2. @Robin Welty And that certainly ain’t Antifa or Black Lives Matter during their silly protests and riots!!!

    3. @John Poston The Spanish flu was another American racism and hatred slur when it actually was most likely originated in Kansas. And people wore masks for that pandemic until it went too long. Which is why they had more outbreak waves. Which is also happening with coronavirus except many refused to wear masks from the onset especially in the US. So, Americans can stuff their self-righteousness and excuses.

  4. I wear or don’t wear a mask based on the situation, an abundance of caution, and a sense of personal responsibility. Semper Gumbi

    1. The patient is undergoing surgery so most likely may have body tissue exposed to germs. Out in the open for the general public it’s useless. But I guess we th think differently. They are useless and harmful in the long run. Their efficacy hasn’t been scientifically proven against viruses. Just cuz I have a different view, with many here, you either become a troll a racist or the offensive language appears.

  5. The CDC is a govt agency and could, conceivably, be subject to litigation if their advice causes harm to anyone in any situation. They have to and will always be more cautious than necessary … just like a doctor giving medical advice. People have to take responsibility to make their own informed decisions, but should choose to listen to several well-balanced, scientific, and informed sources.

  6. I live with a family member with preexisting conditions so I keep a mask on as much as possible.

    1. @Alicia Stanley Nice story. What’s the women’s name that invented the Covid vaccine? Where in the body do you find RNA? How many types of RNA do we have? Google that and get back at me.

    2. @Alicia Stanley My mother and father are black, my birth certificate says I’m black, my driver license says I’m black, I paid off my personal income tax which means I’m black. What are you?

  7. Don’t miss the significant difference between being outdoors on a quiet suburban street or in my back yard, and a downtown street or open area market or sporting event that draws a crowd.

    1. @Lilly Anderson
      Nope, I just expose the wicked for all the innocent children that are taking u to the brimstone bubble bath

    2. @Lilly Anderson why try so hard to impeach him when he’s already out then. You Biden lovers are terrified of trump that why it’s been months and he’s still top of mind

    3. @Bringa Bong Impeach him? No, arrest him. He still inciting violence and spreading misinformation. He’s still pulling scams like the one he was doing with Bannon. tRump should have been in jail decades ago.

  8. This mask-thing is starting to feel like fat-shaming people, this morning at my gym almost NO one had on a mask.
    I was wearing a mask and people were giving me the old stink EYE!

    1. @The M Network For the sake of staying healthy, I will always decline to wear a mask. I won’t take a dangerous vaccine and I am not stupid enough to believe in this fake pandemic. However; I respect and free American’s choice to wear mask.

    2. @Chandler Nelms Oh yea..now I remember…because you called the pandemic a hoax. Just figured you were one of the cult members. 🖐😁

    3. @American Bulldog I’m not a Trump fan or Biden. But I am a big fan of bring educated. Go to You tube and search Bill Gates talking about the vaccines reducing America’s and the World’s population. You will hear Bill Gates himself saying that the vaccines will kill millions and reduce the population. You will also hear Bill Gates talk about investing $10 billion in Corona Virus vaccines and making 100’s of billions on the vaccines. Search Dr Fauci speaking multiple times about joe mask do not prevent the spread of Corona Virus or any illness. America had over 500,000 fewer deaths in 2020 than in 2019. The FLU and over 2 other diseases were cured in 2020? Or maybe they were using those numbers to try to make people believe Corona Virus was deadly.
      In 2020 the media presented Corona Virus as new. Corona Virus has been around for decades.

  9. My point is: I would rather go the extra mile to keep my family and others safe than go back to normal too early and have another surge for one year.

    1. Bam, Bam I love that. They are rushing and with all this rushing it’s going to cause problems

    2. @Chandler Nelms So are you suggesting everything in Deli is all propaganda? You must be joking.

    3. @Amanda R In 2020 Corona Virus was presented to the world and America as a new illness or disease. However; Corona Virus has been around for decades. For decades doctors have used the term Corona Virus to describe the common cold. Many cleaning products have had “kills Corona Virus germs” on the labor for several years. In a China lab they were experimenting with way of making the common cold more contagious not to kill people but to weaken war opponents. That strain got out of the lab. The name Covid 19 stand for Certificate of Vaccine ID, they used 19 because in 2019 they came up with this name. Dr Fauci has invested in vaccines related to Corona Virus for over 10 years. Bill Gates invested over $10 billion dollars in vaccines going back 10 years. Dr Fauci has said multiple times throughout the years that mask don’t work at all in reference to the spread of any illness. If you want references, go to YouTube and you will hear Dr Fauci for yourself say mask don’t work. Search Bill Gates and you will hear Bill Gates y’all about making 100’s of billions on corona Virus vaccines. Bill Gates even says that if they do a good job the vaccines will reduce the earth’s population. America had over 500,000 thousand fewer deaths in 2020. Somehow the FLU and over 20 other diseases were cured in 2020? No they needed Corona Virus numbers.
      It’s all about thinking for yourself.

  10. What the hell is she talking about go to the hospital and tell that to all the people who is fighting for there life

  11. The tone is determined by COVID when, where and what kind of strain it will spread as. Don’t worry, whatever the tone it’s all good and taken care of.

  12. Choose? I didn’t get a choice as an essential worker. Now we’ve learned more i still don’t get to social distance and my work mate was very happy about mocking me for not having a gf. Not allowed whilst his partner gave birth during the pandemic.

    1. Thank you. This is not over. But our government feels that they are God. And no one knows anything but them. I am going to keep on wearing my mask. I will be getting my 2 shots. soon. And I am going to still wear my mask

    1. It’s not fear. Let’s get that right. It’s called wisdom. wear your mask stay 6 ft away and wash your hands and go about your day lol. Oh and get your shots lol in 2021 it will be over. but we have 7 months to deal with it

    2. Don’t get your shots or make your decision after watching Dr Bhadki (wear earbuds, Headphones 🎧 or use a different device if you can’t hear him during the interview)….
      *Perspectives on the Pandemic Blood Clots and Beyond*

  13. I did not know we had to wear masks out doors unless there is a crowd, this is surprising to me. I have been social distancing for decades, I like calm silence and nature.

  14. My behavior hasn’t changed one bit. I wear my mask, avoid strangers and certainly crowds.

    1. @The M Network Sierra, Delta, Alpha, November, Golf, Echo, Romeo, Sierra, Oscar, Sierra, India, Tango, India, Sierra, Delta, India, Romeo, Echo, Foxtrot, Oscar, Romeo, Yankee, Oscar, Uniform, Tango, Oscar, Echo, Victor, Alpha, Charlie, Uniform, Alpha, Tango, Echo, Bravo, Echo, Charlie, Alpha, Uniform, Tango, India, Oscar, Uniform, Sierra, Tango, Hotel, Echo, Yankee, Alpha, Romeo, Echo, November, Oscar, Tango, Hotel, Uniform, Mike, Alpha, November, 042933964230, Sierra, Oscar, Sierra, Delta, Alpha, November, Golf, Echo, Romeo, Sierra, Oscar, Sierra.
