That alone is enough for me to take all necessary precautions as far too much is still unknown. I'm so glad I don't live in those states that are dropping all restrictions/mandates. |

Not so easy, they say.Link A day after Gov. Greg Abbott said he would lift Texas’s mask requirement and allow businesses to fully reopen, several companies said they would continue to require face coverings in the state. But industry groups are worried that businesses will not be able to enforce such policies once Texas and other states no longer require masks. Target and Macy’s said they would continue to require customers and employees to wear masks in their Texas outlets. And Kroger, the grocery chain, said it would require everyone in its stores nationwide to wear masks until its frontline workers are vaccinated against the coronavirus. The responsibility for mask enforcement will likely fall on the shoulders of frontline workers, who have been repeatedly harassed by customers who refuse to adhere to the policies. “We support governors reopening their economies and giving beleaguered restaurants and other small businesses the opportunity to rebuild and rehire workers,” said Jason Brewer, the executive vice president of communications for the Retail Industry Leaders Association. “But going backward on safety measures will unfairly put retail employees back in the role of enforcing guidelines still recommended by the C.D.C. and other public health advocates.” Texas officials had done little to enforce their own mask policies, largely relying on businesses and social stigma to uphold the rules. The role individuals and businesses play will now become even more important, some industry executives said. “As we have seen throughout the pandemic, states and municipalities have mandated mask policies, yet have failed to provide any enforcement mechanisms,” Bill Thorne, an executive at the National Retail Federation, said in a statement. Small business owners in Texas posted mixed reactions to the Mr. Abbott’s announcement on LinkedIn. “We are so thankful that our local restaurants and other businesses that survive on retail/walk-in consumers are going to be able to get back to it,” wrote Jerry Drew, the chief executive of Network Thermostat, an electronics manufacturer in Grapevine, near Dallas. “Happy Days!” Others were not so enthusiastic. “I think the governor’s decision is a bad one,” wrote Gary Murray Sr., the owner of a fencing club in Round Rock, a suburb of Austin. “It is premature, reckless and I truly believe that he is being pressured by outside sources with no regard for health and safety.” — Gillian Friedman |

Target, Starbucks and a few other big box stores are still going to require masks. That is going to create a very dangerous environment for their employees. Some poor minimum wage guy is gonna get shot. |

And medical masks are to be disposed of after single use. |

Try looking up the science. I think we should wait until more people are vaccinated and the case load , hospitalations (sic) and death rates goes way down Use some common sense here. Too much conflicting messaging with respect to the vaccines, suddenly influenza doesn't exist (and some whistleblowers are saying that flu deaths are being misreported as COVID deaths), and (fact) lockdowns are not quarantine and never have been. |
