  1. People in Boston take buses and trains and no mask. You can see cops not wearing masks, firefighters not wearing masks. Restaurants are getting busy, yoga studios are open, gyms are open and no so much worrying about mask. People aren’t going to give a sht by summer.

    1. @Wes Peeble Yes, but for example, when Polio or Influenza first happened, people weren’t accustomed to it and got severely sick or died. Naturally some people would adapt over time but vaccines help boost your immune system by getting it used to a small amount of the virus. So instead of doing stuff like “chicken pox parties” of knowingly sending a kid to a sleepover to infect others for example, vaccines are a safer way to get accumulated to a virus (and it doesn’t risk you infecting others rather than catching it naturally).

    2. @Cameron Weaver you go right on ahead, you can have mine also,so help yourself,I’m a 30 year marine combat veteran, we dont easily

    1. @Victoria Biggs do you realize tha2t when you have obesity you also have another underlying illness this not something math can help you out because if you have high blood pressure you are probably obesse

    2. Which is and was always correct. But we have never once, at any point, had a total shutdown. Some states had none at all and there’s been 0 federal restrictions except the minor ones implemented by Biden.

    3. @Last first I like the stock, May be if you’re such a propagandist, you should ask your mom for money to invest..

    4. @Tanner Henry Ok thanks for telling me that I’ma get ready to get the vaccine since you said that

    5. @robotron17 The data shows the masks do work. The problem is that some people aren’t using the properly or disregarding gathering rules. These can be fixed. The Danish Study you quoted did not prove mask doesn’t work it was inconclusive. Where as there are plenty of studies that supports mask working as a prevention. So all in all the only sources you can gather does not actually say mask is not effect, it only say “we can be sure of anything”. However there are plenty of research shows that mask wearing is good. So you are basically cherry picking the studies that barely barely barely “prove” your point while ignoring all the studies that disprove it. And you are accusing others of being in a cult? https://files.fast.ai/papers/masks_lit_review.pdf

      Power grab? great reset by whom and for whom? governments on different politic spectrum are being affect positively and negatively by COVID. Some right wing European governments are positively affect by COVID. Take the tin foil hat off your head.

  2. The Dems have to accept a loss if Joe Manchin kills the Bill? No Joe Manchin is going to have to accept a loss if he kills the Bill and I encourage the people of West Virginia to make sure of it

    1. @D Parker yes they are ,they knew it would or could cause cancer before they were approved by the FDA but never told this to the FDA or the public.

    2. @Mae Gary Top executives knew their talcum powder was laced with asbestos in the early 1970’s. It took them 5 decades to admit what they already knew. That tells you how f***** our system is. How people trust these companies is absolutely beyond me.

    1. Correcting misinformation makes me happy. It certainly pisses off the anti-maskers, but I couldn’t really care less about how they feel. Facts don’t care about your feelings.

    1. Yup there’s going to be a “new strain” every year now that the establishment knows how well the sheep follow their draconian lockdowns and fake face diaper science

    2. @Kevin Jacoby ah yes, the “establishment” benefits so much by you wearing a piece of cloth on your face. Take the tinfoil hat off

  3. We got hope 3 vaccines, don’t , I’ll repeat don’t let your guard down, I’m 64! I’ll get my vaccination soon , I d rather you first, I’ll be alright, if I die it’s ok…if you die it won’t be ok

    1. Good for you man! Don’t pay attention to the attention craving people in the comments who need to say something edgy for likes. I’m not letting my guard down, keep living life.

    2. @Tom Bob and would you like it when someone says this to you when you are old? This isn’t being constructive at all.

    1. It is entertainment news. To those who are not biased, so are all the rest of the cable networks.

  4. CNN…what a God damn disgrace. I can just hear it now on Xmas Eve 2021…..”please don’t gather with your family for one more Holiday…we’re almost there. We are worried about the Galapagos Island variant even though there was 2 positive cases in the country this week”

    1. So you’re saying you are as dumb as a box of rocks. Got it. I used to try and explain a few things but
      Karens already know everything and don’t care about anybody else. Hopeless..

  5. Why do I get this odd feeling that the space aliens from the Simpsons are watching all this through a monitor and laughing their asses off?

    1. Cdc changed their recommendation on how many cycles the pcr tests go through a month or two ago, eliminating a lot of false positives. Very convenient timing…

    2. its almost like we’ve been trying to lower cases for months now. Turns out, we got our first vaccine right around that time

  6. The thumbnail shows Iowa as dark red, in the segment the map shows Iowa as dark green. The exact opposite.
