Masks, distancing 'could last years'

I won't be surprised if everything returns to some normalcy in most (rich?) Countries by the last quarter of the year. Look at the dramatic decrease of covid in Israel that has half it's population vaccinated. Look at UK and the US, the worst affected but dramatic decrease in cases. There will be precautions here and there but generally life will move on and people will quickly forget this torrid 12-16 months . I can tell you from first hand experience that we barely realise covid exists in my part of the world.

Where is that? New Zealand or Australia?

I think it’s utterly stupid to generalize measures once vaccination is completed in a country and that the active cases are down 

For example, there’s no point in keeping measures up in Australia and New Zealand. For that reason I don’t see why we’d keep them in X state/province if the active cases are away from it. 

(I don’t mean that for the current situation, but for once the virus is under control)

Like I’m not gonna keep distancing because there’s a couple cases 6 hours away from me and everyone is vaccinated :awkney:

Good! I love the masks I've been purchasing so I hope they keep them forever so we can show them and start a new trend, once you get used to it it's not that bad, and I actually like not to be forced to smell y'all stinky *ss breath smell or people touching me all the time, I've had it for the rest of my existence.

As an EPIDEMIELOGIST he has to point out what would be the most effective etc. but there are still some social points:

 

Leaving my personal feelings about masks away I can't imagine this in summer months.

 

Social distancing is causing lots of depression etc. 

 

But in the end only time will tell ...

Yes. Sydney, Australia. And we have just got news that pretty much every covid guideline and regulation will be dropped and all clubs will be open. Which means dancing to Chromatica II to 911.

I hope many people will continue wearing masks in public transport. This season, we had almost no influenca cases in comparison to the last years...

From my personal perspective as a citizen, United States is looking at a normal summer rn.

If you think that people are going to INVOLUNTARILY wear masks for the rest of their lives, you’ve never stepped foot in the US.

you are implying America is going to gaf once we are mostly vaccinated.

 

Not saying it’s right, but knowing the US, restrictions are gonna be gone before summer

Also, as a woman, one benefit of wearing masks is that strange men no longer admonish me to smile. Plus, when I get my monthly PMS pimples around my nose and chin, I can conveniently hide them. 

THIS for real though

Can you share where you get the cute masks? :flutter:

I've bought them from a couple of different sites, but my favorite is: 

https://masklab.us

(I'm in the US, but if you're not, they do have a global site: https://store.masklab.global

For cloth masks, Etsy has lots of cute ones.
