Time for mask policy to be finished

[CristoRey]

A crowded guagua is a perfect spot to catch a disease.

So is your local supermarket, colmado, hospital, clinic, auto bus, hair salon, bank,
comidor, bar, disco, internet cafe, cuerlo and yes... even your prized yoga studio.
Please continue to shelter in place as we do not want you catching nor spreading
any diseases amongst those of us who refuse to buy into your never ending fear
mongering propaganda.

They wouldn't stamp our DR Sinovac cards when we got our second shots at Centro Medical last year. We convinced a nurse to stamp them on our way out as Centro screwed up sending our PCR test results to us and she felt a bit guilty so we had her stamp them.

I can give countless examples of their failed "proof of X amount of shots" being a total
waste of time but for the sake of not getting an ear full of nonsense from the usual cheerleaders, I'll pass on it.

CV19 finished off an old friend of mine. He played guitar in the second band I ever played in back in high school.
He was into Black Sabbath back then.

He went on to be a touring musician. He had advanced Muscular Dystrophy which had him less than mobile for
more than 10 years. Last week, CV19 finished him off despite being vaccinated.

So, he died of COVID....

The virus also can damage the heart even though its primarily respiratory illness, often labeled heart failure.

Muscular Dystrophy is a terrible disease to live with.
Was he able to continue playing for a time after the MD diagnosis ?


Doctors who sign the death certificates are adept at determining causes and and contributing disease and write in all the illnesses.
Your friend is , sadly , one of those with very serious underlying illness.

Sorry to hear about your friends passing.

Do you realize just how nasty and full of bacteria/germs those masks are? I call em face diapers as this is the more accurate term. They are diapers for all the nasty germs they accumulate.

Everyone in that guagua probably hasn't washed their facemasks in DAYS, touching them with their unwashed hands all day, carrying them in their pockets along with their cellphones, which have been proven to actually carry more bacteria than toilet seats. Cross-contamination with cellphones equal double the germs.
Yikes.

So the fact that so many people wear dirty/unsanitary masks in such a closed and tiny space is probably a bigger health risk than wearing no mask at all.

cannot control others behavior.

I change my masks frequently.
Worked 100% so far for me and I was never uncomfortable with any protocols related to Covid.
Most do not seem to take it seriously enough in my view.

Nice thing about a respiratory virus is that it is not difficult to evade.

I find that's the best policy, whatever your point of view on this subject. These discussions just go around in endless circles.

So is Pedro Clisante street.

Hey, that's my street to talk about , but not in this thread.


Just kiddin'.

 

[windeguy]

How would a person know if someone has a fake card or not? The cards are also stamped.

A person on the street might not be able to tell at all.
There is a data base with all injections listed in it.
They somehow arrested a French drugstore owner in next to CMC for producing fake vax cards.

Muscular Dystrophy is a terrible disease to live with.
Was he able to continue playing for a time after the MD diagnosis ?

He had MD when I played with him in high school and for many years after that. He died in his early 60s after being less than mobile for about 10 years as I understand it.

Doctors who sign the death certificates are adept at determining causes and and contributing disease and write in all the illnesses.

His mother died at a similar age, she passed MD on to him.

Sorry to hear about your friends passing.

Thanks. The vaccines didn't help...

Do you think the measles is not difficult to evade as well?

Omicron is considered to be as contagious as the measles.

I know of nobody, besides you that is, who thinks Omicron is easy to evade including Dr Fauci who has stated virtually everyone will eventually get it.

But Fauci is now being pushed out to the media to sell the end of Covid. You see countries are reading the people's anger and with elections on the horizon they realize Covid mandates are going to crush politicians that continue to push the unneeded masks and Vax.

Maybe DR needs a trucker convoy around Santo Domingo?

Trust me Abinader is watching too and things like masks in schools, Vax cards and unwanted vaccinating of children are political suicide as we enter spring.

Folks this pandemic is finished. So sorry for those still pushing fear - you look foolish now.

Fauci says ‘full-blown’ COVID-19 pandemic is almost over in US

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the chief medical adviser for President Biden, said in an interview published Tuesday that the U.S. is almost past the “full-blown” pandemic phase of the coronavirus and said he hopes that all virus-related restrictions could wind down in a few months.

Yes , but close is only good enough in horseshoes and hand grenades, no? Almost is still not good enough to move on, but the stage , I agree, has been set. Governors are taking action to lift restrictions in places like New Jersey, so the end game is upon us.

Nothing is guaranteed Winde - You might be knocked over by a speeding motoconcho tomorrow and be finished.
But I bet you still are going to cross the street.
Living with our heads buried in masks and fear didn't stop or even slow the disease, so let's cross the street and put this wasted two years behind us.

Let the old women hide in thier villas and run for a Covid test at every sniffle. That's not my life

And as if on cue, in the second "state and promised land" for Dominicans and also one of the most liberal next to Fornicalia :

Inside Gov. Hochul’s Decision to Lift ‘Mask or Vax’ Rule in New York​

Gov. Kathy Hochul’s announcement, expected on Wednesday, comes after she has been satisfied with trend lines on hospital capacity and positivity rates.

As Hochul Lifts Mask Mandate, Focus Shifts to Schools (Published 2022)

Gov. Kathy Hochul is ending the mandate in businesses and workplaces, but leaving the requirement for masks in schools in place, at least for now.

www.nytimes.com

My extreme anti-vax friend will be happy to see this. He already had CV19 a few weeks ago, but his business was limited because of the Vax mandate which will now go away today in my home state. Will the DR be far behind?

 

[Ecoman1949]

The Covid restriction walls are crumbling fast in Canada mi amigos. Alberta, Saskatchewan, even little Prince Edward Island will remove vax pass, crowd limitations, etc. by February 15th. My province is also removing a lot of the restrictions. Masks will still be required in some provinces but I expect this requirement to be eliminated by March.

All of this will put heavy political pressure on Trudeau to eliminate the federal vax mandates, and travel restrictions, nationally and internationally. Covid is not politically fashionable anymore.

The time has come, the walrus said, to speak of other things. Koo koo kachoo!

 

[JD Jones]

I suspect other states will fall like dominos

Indoor mask mandates are falling like Dominos (JDJones beat me to it).......and yes especially in states considered liberal.

Are they reacting to the Canadian Freedom Convoy movement that the mainstream media ignored............until they couldn't.............and that is now going worldwide..........or the fact that the most important trade bridge between the US/Canada is now completely shut down?

Are they now all of a sudden following the science?

The only science they appear to have been following is Political Science.

Will the DR, that never really enforced anything concerning masks or vaccinations, be far behind?

Lets go Justin, Lets go Brandon, Lets go Luis................time to move on.................."political" science has spoken.

Dropping Indoor Mask Mandate, New York Joins Blue States Easing Covid Rules (Published 2022)

After a scare in November, New Jersey’s governor and other Democratic leaders held back-channel talks over lifting mandates and helping voters impatient with restrictions reclaim a sense of normalcy.

www.nytimes.com

JD I suspect you are correct while RES states already did this, the BLUE states are now boarding the endemic express:

I suspect other states will fall like dominos

See the above about the "back channel" meetings governors had to put this past them while saving their political futures.

 

[windeguy]

RED not RES states in post 117

Will the DR be far behind? I see few restrictions on going just about anywhere at the moment. Perhaps still at banks.

Chico.

The trucker blockades have galvanized a segment of the Canadian population to rally against the mandates but the real reason the mandates are dropping is, certain premiers were against them when they were implemented. The premiers of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, are conservative populist premiers who are the first to bail on the requirements. Quebec is not far behind and it has one of the largest Liberal voting populations in Canada, voters Trudeau needs to survive. Trudeau has a minority that could fall anytime.

Quebec will be the straw that breaks the federal governments back. Quebec citizens make up a large portion of Canada’s DR and Mexico tourists and expats. They will be extremely happy when the international travel restrictions are eliminated. Trudeau would have to be politically stupid to not see the handwriting on the wall.

The Windsor Detroit Ambassador bridge isn‘t blocked. It’s one lane only due to the trucker protest. Up to seven hour delays to get across. Truckers need to get though to US and Canadian automobile production plants for just in time parts delivery. If they blocked the bridge, the trucker protest would lose credibility fast.
