Fake news.
And the people who believe it have an IQ less than 70.

You have studies showing clear correlation between mask and/or vaccine mandates and the virus spread? Where?
Delta is a lot more infectious, although perhaps not as lethal.
I don't know about "vaccine mandates" - all I can say is you can clearly observe states/areas with 70% vax rates vs those with 40%. The difference in infection rate as well as acuity is quite stark. What is your interest in denying this reality?

My issue is with the general mandates and the masks.
From what I've seen, I agree that vaccination has legitimate positive effects. I don't know that governmentally "mandating" it has positive effects. It seems like there is a group it serves more to turn off.
I perhaps should have ben clearer.
Masks are all but useless for anything. Mandates for them border on being diabolical.

I agree that it "turns off" some groups - but I would submit they are loony idiots just being hyper-partisan over something that shouldn't even be. I wish Trump would just command the drones to get the damned vaccine - he certainly got it.

Rich Baris has been talking about how they are manipulating polls again, using Adults instead of Registered or Likely Voters.
The poll that had Biden at 49% approval from NBC, only 77% were registered voters.

To be fair, this might make more effective sense polling-wise given 2020.

WTF?

Funny how few people on here believe the poll just because they still live in a small conservative town. Most Americans live in big cities where Covid has been a bigger problem. Not surprising at all.

I think the difference is no one wants polio, but there are a shite ton of people who aren't scared of catching the rona.

This shouldn't be a polling issue. The opinions of average Americans shouldn't matter on issues of medical and public safety.

I do. The Americans of generations past would have strung up power-hungry authoritarians like Fauci, Cuomo, Whitmer and JBE. Now we are a nation of fat, lazy and stupid people who want the perception of total safety and don't mind becoming slaves to achieve it.
