The Road to DeMaskUs

The leadership at the top of our nations top offices has been disorganized at its best.   However, they have been very clear on contradicting each other.  The original path to freedom drove the populous towards not wearing a mask.  This path, littered with viral mine fields, led to an infectious feeling of dread and millions actually infected.  We're guessing the theory was: it wont help and supply of masks was low so we need to keep them for the working healthcare professionals.  Odd, that healthcare providers need to wear them to protect themselves while simultaneously recommending the public not wear them to protect ourselves.  Contradict much?  Good call healthcare people.  Do masks work to help prevent the spread of disease?  Yes. (if worn properly) (Why else would surgeons and healthcare workers wear them?  Besides making them look like they know what they are doing.)  Is wearing masks the only thing we should be doing to control infectious diseases?  No.  There are several other things that can help.  (washing hands, social distancing, exercise, eating right, etc.)  

Dont mask what your country can do for you... but just do whatever you want because your actions have no impact on others.  That "American" freedom attitude has allowed the covid situation to kick our mask six ways to Sunday.  Its time to 180 this baby.  POTUS has recently walked back his original stance of "dont wear mask because it prevents burger intake" (not a real quote)  He then realized the masks are removable.  The Don has donned a mask in some situations trumping his own lack of awareness.  He even said "it is Patriotic to wear a face mask when you can’t socially distance.”  We understand it is difficult for anyone to change their stance on hot button issues, so we are shocked that he stopped masking the truth.  If the Trumpenator is coming around to ideas then it must be so long overdue that we are probably already more than halfway down Covid Creek.

We know we have been talking a lot about masks lately and just like a mask over your mouth and nose...  we're over it.  So, let's put it on now so we can all take it off soon!
