    Default What's the plan, Fox Nation?

    The anti-mask & mask-shaming campaigns are successful. And they were just so, so inconvenient, right?

    We're opening up. Distancing is now being ridiculed the same way as masks were. No one seems to care much about testing or tracing.

    It's a global pandemic. What's your plan, exactly? Anything aside from just letting it run its course through the population, and best o' luck to the seniors and high-risk folks?

    I'm playing it safe until a vaccine is available. That should be late this year or early next year.

    Yes, there will be a vaccine.

    How effective, if at all, is the question.
    Russian trolls and their supporters go on Ignore, automatically: no second chance.

    what's your fascist plan to make people mask?
    If you want to know -look at what DeSantis did and what Cuomo did not do in terms of protecting the elderly pop

    Hey, a Fox viewer chimes in!

    I have never, nor will I ever, advocate "forcing" anyone to wear a mask.

    But it's a small ask. I have no idea why the same people who want the economy to open faster won't just decide to do it themselves. Moreover, many of those same people have taken to mask-shaming, and making it seem like some major infringement on our freedom and "virtue signaling."

    a vaccine by it's nature IS effective..or it's not a vaccine.
    And there are no guarantees, but Trump has dedicated massive resources to make it happen ( Op. Warp Speed)

    Nothing like answering a question with a question and then deflecting with a “whataboutism,” did someone say FOX?

    No, just like most Trump actions, Trump said “he has dedicated massive resources to make it happen,” always a good photo op

    No, there won't. With 30% change of reinfection among survivors, there is no viable method of inoculation.

    No. But Fox & Fox Nation in general has been on mask-shaming campaign. Not surprising you haven't noticed. You're busy w/ Flynn.

    ROFL..I don't watch Fox Nation.. too much red meat for me.
    I do watch Fox News -best in the business , especially compared to Fake News like WAPO/NYT/CNN/ etc

    give an ex of "mask shaming" on either source

    I guess we'll find out how it goes after this event.

    "And with that passing mention, South Carolina Republicans returned to the normal rhythm of the campaign trail, coronavirus all the same.

    "The outdoor gathering here on Thursday was a send-off event for Cleo Steele, a longtime Republican Party operative in Horry County, who is retiring to Ohio. Speakers shared the same microphone. Local and state political candidates greeted voters with handshakes and squeezed tight for pictures. Of all the people gathered outside the county Republican office — many of them senior citizens — fewer than a dozen wore masks.

    “Social distancing guidelines are recommended,” the invitation had said. “Hand sanitizer and face masks will be available.” In reality, according to interviews with more than a dozen attendees, the event was an active rejection of behavior that the hyper-conservative crowd has come to associate with liberal enemies in recent months — wearing masks and gloves, staying six feet away from other people, avoiding physical touch."
