They never said masks would go away after a vaccine. Nobody has ever said anything about when masks can go away.
In fact, the masks aren't going away. Because they will base it on cases and/or deaths. Since neither will ever reach zero even with a vaccine, and they never told us how many cases and deaths merit masks in the first place (as opposed to the seasonal flu), masks are here to stay.
Eat the bugs.
Will back track a tad. I do work for citizens, having started a home improvement company cuz Covid got us all fired. I do ask real people if they want me to wear a mask. Am a white dude in mostly black area and the only one. THE ONLY FUCKING ONE! was a white, liberal, vegan chick, Biden supporter. Had to tell my son "money before politics" as he helps.
So cover your ass in anyway you need. Keep your job. But fuck Covid. For every 1% unemployment goes up 20,000 deaths occur. FACT. COVID IS A LIE.
But we all know that.
