@Merge Countdown begins to Labor day today! You will not be posting on this board after that! Biden already has told Americans they will be wearing masks until 2022.
Clearly not what he meant. He was talking about the near future to beat the virus, but not really worth arguing about it.
I don't think you appreciate how quickly things are improving and if they continue on this trend, you don't think democrats will want to take credit for getting us back to normal?

What do you mean clearly not what he meant? He clearly said masks will be worn to next year. What other interpretation is there?

Biden indicates that masks will be worn through next year
President Biden visited the National Institutes of Health complex on Thursday and he spoke about the U.S. vaccine supply and his goals for the rollout, but he also indicated that mask-wearing will likely be a reality for the next year.www.foxnews.com
Not what he said. “Through the next year” doesn’t mean “through to next year”.
Like I said. Not really worth debating it. He’s been clear about his plan.
Also I am shocked people on this board have not found my citizen of the year award. I even gave my county away (Atlantic)
Were all furiously googling. Also, I am loving motnioring the bet between you and Merge. I'm gonna laugh so hard if a dude in a hazmat suit shows up at Pru.
That's nonsense. If a March spike is coming, why has the governor loosened the screws just a bit on the restrictions? As long as we're below 1.0, there will be no spike. Basic math.
The "experts" have been wrong more often than not since last year.
Sometimes I think you’re the pantalones guyHello. The CDC has now made the determination the UK variant is deadlier than other variants. They are warning Americans to "Keep up their guard". The CDC is warning governors pulling back their restrictions could cause a new spike. For example, Montana has decided to end their mask mandate.

In the U.S., more vaccines will be made available, but logistics continue to be a problem. Montana became the latest state to remove its mask mandate. A French mayor defied orders and opened museums.www.nytimes.com

This is a very sad state of affairs. This twitter poster making a good point kids might not even be back to school 5 says a week throughout the whole Biden Presidency. A very sad state of affairs.
Hello I have been telling this board the last couple days the rt is beginning to surge again. Up to .89. It was just .81 a few days ago. This is expected because the experts have been telling us we will have a March surge.
Any Rt number below 1 means that the number of current infections is shrinking.
So no.... .81 to .89 does not indicate a surge is coming at all. Also, Rt does not predict future infection. It's more on a lag when you input infection data which tells you how quickly it WAS spreading. The first indication of a new surge will come when there is an increase in the test positivity rate which is currently on a downward trend and is the lowest it has been in 3 months.
Our kids school just announced they are going back to 5 days a week in March from hybrid 2-3 days per week.
Change happens the first week of March.
And there was this thing called the Super Bowl two weeks ago. If you didn't think there would be some kind of uptick after that, you are pretty naïve.Any Rt number below 1 means that the number of current infections is shrinking.
