Go ahead and flog but that's my pitiful excuse.


 

 

@Laura14   I saw on the news yesterday that someone in a nursing home in Tennessee has tested positive for the virus for the second time.  You aren't necessarily immune if you're already had it.

I bought several masks off of ebay, and as soon as I got them, I tried them on to see how they looked!

@NickNack @ahoymate   No, really?  You can get it again?  I did not know that!

The interesting thing about these Mask Mandates is that you can just say you can not wear mask   do to medical issues....no explaining or proof necessary. The stores can not make you show proof it is due to medical issues 

 

 So these mandates will make NO DIFFERENCE in making those who just CHOOSE not to wear a mask wear a mask.  What good is mandate if they allow people to just say. I CAN'T?

Not to mention the law enforcement in my county came out immediately and said no one would receive a citation.  The same announcement they made with the Stay At Home order.  So it is just an individual choice mandate or not.  I will follow the rules shopping for others ease of mind.

@Nicknack  Scientists aren't sure yet of how or why people seem to be reinfected but the theory is that it's more of a reactivation sort of like chronic EBV and this reaction will vary depending on a person's immune system.

Wear a mask. Social distance. Be part of the solution - not part of the problem.

@Laura14   I just heard that on the news last night.  I had been having a discussion with someone yesterday who said that she didn't think you could get the virus again if you'd already had it.  I replied that I didn't think they knew that for sure.  Then I saw that on the news.  It just said that a woman in a nursing home in Tennessee had tested positive for the second time.

That is why herd immunity is probably not possible. We need a workable vaccine.
