Perhaps all those who refuse to wear a mask will agree not to put all those front line workers at risk by showing up at ER’s for treatment if they get COVID. You know you were smart enough to know better than to wear a mask you are smart enough to cure yourself. Take the pledge

I already took the pledge . I didn’t go to the ER . Neither did NGV 🤷‍♂️

Gretchen Whitmer: Healthcare Workers Must be Trained on Implicit Bias, Nonwhites Have ‘Barriers’ to Medical Care

Are you a medical worker? Do you have implicit bias? If you’re in Michigan, your governor wants you to compute your fluke.

If you haven’t heard, the state’s Coronavirus Task Force on Racial Disparity recently concluded the black population was hit particularly hard with the virus due to — in part — that very thing within the medical community.

Hence, on Thursday, Gretchen Whitmer issued an Executive Directive.

Here’s she is, folks:
​
“I am calling on the dddd to establish new rules requiring all health care professionals to receive training on implicit bias and the way it affects delivery of health care services.”​
As reported by ClickOnDetroit, black Michiganders accounted for 30% of all coronavirus cases and 40% of COVID deaths — despite comprising only 14% of the state’s population.

Could there be reasons having nothing to do with prejudice?

Gretchen says Yes, but she suspects it’s racism, too:

Where is your freedom from a mask, seatbelt, helmet, bra, etc. guaranteed in the Constitution?

Did you find that on Twitter? It’s the same place that gives businesses the choice to serve or not serve whomever they like. How does not serving someone without a mask help stop the spread anyway? If they’re already in there sneezing and coughing then it’s too late.

So you're saying the state does not have the right to impose sanitary standards on businesses operating within its borders. Good luck with that.

Boy that’s a thin line you’re walking there, too thin in fact. I think any decent attorney would rip that apart as this is not part of sanitation standards set by the health board. Even if it was, you aren’t talking about setting requirements for business to operate, you are talking about the state telling a business who they can or can’t serve. The governor cannot arbitrarily and unilaterally make this decision anyway so my point stands. And I thought you were an attorney. Wait, no I didn’t.

And that right there is why I don’t care who is holding the Oval Office as much anymore . The real power is with governors and mayors from now on and I believe it’s going to be a whole new way of doing things . I wonder why that last part is in there . Lol

I haven’t heard of BLM handing out masks at a Trump rally .. yet

Ok. Wasn't sure which mass gathering that opposes another mass gathering you meant. I think its silly either way. If somebody is going to condemn a Trump rally don't support a BLM rally and don't condemn a BLM rally if you're going to support a Trump rally.

I am curious why so many people on here say masks are ineffective or even dangerous but they're being handed out at a Trump rally.
