You may not like the evidence, you may not find it conclusive, you may not find it sufficient, but you can't say there is zero scientific evidence.

And, you understand nothing about medicine or viral transmission, have no experience treating infectious diseases in children, have no access to area pediatric hospital administrator communication, have not been dealing with the onslaught of mental issues caused by this lunacy, yet. . . Here you are!

Kids aren’t spreading it to adults so who are they protecting by masking them?

It's been well established since last March that kids are not primary spreaders of the virus and are not at significant risk of illness. The whole reasoning some school systems used to justify masking kids was the outside chance that an older teacher/staff person could catch CV and have a poor outcome. Now, with vaccines readily available, the latter has become a non-issue.

It's lunacy.

We've seen it time and time again. Trump says he recommends getting the vaccine, followed immediately by minimizing that with a comment about honoring personal freedoms.

Tucker et al at Fox tell viewers to get the vaccine. But constantly run stories and commentary suggesting not so subtly that it is not really needed.

DeSantis decries Fauci and CDC guidance.

All of this to minimize the worthiness of the vaccine and appeal to a political base that longs for proof science is bad.

But here's the problem. Vaccination stalls. We stay below herd immunity as a result. And so mutations have time to spring up. Time to spread. And the vaccine slowly loses what might well have been knock out power.

The window to gain victory is not forever because of the mutations. The more people and the longer the period of time of unvaccinated status we have, the greater the risk.

And then when the vaccine is not as effective due to the irresponsibility of the deniers or minimizers or excuse defenders, the harder it is to get people vaccinated. And we end up with even more mutations, and so on.

People who have gone out there and IN ANY WAY hinted, suggested, or supported people not getting vaccinated are causing deaths. And they are just making it worse each cycle we deal with this.

I never was even close to attempted to buy Trump steaks, Trump Men’s Wear, Trump fragrances, the Trump Board Game, stay at a Trump Property, fly on Trump Airlines or vote for Trump. I think I’m going to hold off on the Trump vaccines for a while too. Not that there’s anything wrong with it.

Ad hominem my love. I may not be a scientist, but I can diagnose BS arguments. Let's focus on the claim made and that claim only. Do you agree with the claim that there is ZERO scientific evidence to support mask wearing. The claim is not that the evidence is insufficient, or inconclusive, or that other concerns outweigh it. The claim is there is zero scientific evidence to support mask wearing by children in schools. Do you agree?

That's beyond anything I could have imagined. My old county in East TN, it was a sacrificial labor of love.

Yeah it’s ridiculous. My dad ran when I was in middle school and it was about $15k back then, we weren’t lucky enough for him to win and cash in lol. If you were from the right district it’s like politicians today; nobody runs against you and you never come off. Just keep cashing checks.

You’re a liberal lawyer, you can’t afford a subscription to the WSJ? Actual news comes at a price, propaganda is pumped out for free. Go listen to his interview on the Clay & Buck podcast then, it’s free.

Kimberly strassel on their editorial board is pretty egregious.

Our CEO is asking supervisors to sit down with their unvaxed employees and listen to our concerns as well, with the instruction of walking us through our hesitancy and encouraging us to get it done. Mine has nothing to do with the efficacy or safety of the vaccine (I’m not worried about either); in my personal opinion it’s a slippery slope of what potentially can and can’t be mandated for conditions of employment down the road. I’ve steadfastly informed my supervisor, as well as my wife, that I would in all likelihood resign if a mandate came down.

You won't.

On a side note, I was asked to show my ID at Total Wine today to prove my legal status.

When will this tyranny stop?

He didn’t attack you or label you with any name he merely correctly pointed out the continuous dumbass nature of your posts and given your proclaimed background you aren’t qualified to comment on. I’d guess my post is of an ad hominem nature though sure.

You don’t show enough intelligence to separate your own bull **** from the stuff you claim to call bull **** on sister. Dangit I did another ad hominem. 🤡

I’m financially stable enough that I can be out of work for at least a year and our company went through a M&A a year ago and brought in new leadership and it’s not been the same since. So yes I will.

Side note, your analogy is terrible and pointless.
