The shameful vindictiveness of the County Commissioners

The Commissioners are denying food to hungry children because of a four year old political vendetta over mask mandates. This is shameful.

@jaimeJ Thank you. I'm very stressed & worried. Really wish #MaskMandates were never removed from medical institutions - especially hospital ERs. I'm really angry at #BCgovernment / #BCNDP for #FailureToProtect when #CovidIsNotOver.

@rlstone4dems
We need #MaskMandates in all #hospitals - all the time. It's simply not safe without them. Patients need more protections than they're currently receiving.

From a review in #TheGuardian

What I know from others' summaries makes me think these profs do protest "partisan bias" too much, suggesting that the #pandemic wasn't as bad as the political response, and that #maskMandates and #lockdowns should have been based on public opinion.

After a few decades on the #internet the highlighted text told me everything I needed to know.

Today in #republic_of_gilead - #DepartmentOfTransport wants to "focus on growth" - population, that is, by funding programs in communities with higher marriage and birth rates.

Oh, and banning #MaskMandates and requiring cooperation with #ImmigrationEnforcement

New DOT Memo Directs Funds To Communities With Higher β€˜Marriage And Birth Rates’

The memo also said recipients of federal transportation dollars must cooperate with immigration enforcement, a hit to so-called sanctuary cities.

Third, respirators are significantly more effective than medical or cloth masks. Fourth, #MaskMandates are, overall, effective in reducing community transmission of respiratory pathogens. Fifth, masks are important sociocultural symbols; non-adherence to masking is sometimes linked to political and ideological beliefs and to widely circulated mis- or disinformation. (2/4)
