    1. same way they trust that people under 17 wont watch tv shows that are rated for mature audiences. They put a disclaimer up and people are on their own

    2. CDC has been always wrong. Why should we believe them now??
      Just fully vaccinate your family Dr. Death
      Texas is fully open now without vaccination

    3. They’re not. Why is that so hard to understand??? Wear a mask if you want to. Don’t if you don’t want to. That’s how it should’ve been all along.

    4. @Christina Jones YES!!!! there are illnesses all over the place. and masks didnt really slow it down. Covid was in the US for almost 6 months before masks were mandated in any state. We had more cases and more deaths after the mask mandate than before.

  1. Excellent news to lose the mask. Of course, parents should still keep their daughters at least six feet away from Matt Gaetz.

    1. Don’t we need to get vaccinated yearly will they bring back masks as soon as percentages drop??!

    2. Weird to hate ppl before facts, but all you dude. Also you need to be better as a Mom if you are concerned about a stranger stands 6feet away. You are going to teach some really bad mentally screwed kids. Find a fun hobby instead! 🙂

  2. I’m pretty sure they’re going to have big problems with this one because they don’t realize every place will not be able to identify anyone that has been fully vaccinated at all

    1. @Ayana Dreamheart that is straight up true. Even in the condition the US is in, those MAGA idiots are gonna do anything to lie about them being vaccinated. And that’s another catastrophe waiting to happen.

    2. @Ayana Dreamheart because the US has rights and just because some are unvaccinated does not take them away. At least for now…

    3. CDC has been always wrong. Why should we believe them now??
      Just fully vaccinate your family Dr. Death
      Texas is fully open now without vaccination

    4. It doesn’t matter. Those of us who take the virus seriously can now protect ourselves, and the number of new cases is plummeting.

  3. Well this is interesting. I’ll be watching with interest from my apartment bunker bubble. I am predicting catastrophe.

    1. @Truth Deaths nationwide are up 21% in. the last year. Sounds like more than 1% was impacted to me. My source is NYtimes COVID pages NOW. Yours?

    2. @Andiamo66 Andiamo No I don’t – but Trump is the reason so many Americans died of this. He and Jared should burn in Hell. Worst leadership ever in history of the US.

  4. Im a bouncer at a bar in a college town. How am I suppose to know who is or isn’t vaccinated, just take their word for it? Wtf

    1. We should probably just patrol the streets demanding to see everyone’s vaccination papers, round up all the unvaccinated people and put them all in one location. Kind of like a camp. A concentration camp.

      Dumbasses

  5. If you’re counting on people telling truth about being fully vaccinated being effective, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

    1. CDC has been always wrong. Why should we believe them now??
      Just fully vaccinate your family Dr. Death
      Texas is fully open now without vaccination

    2. Doesn’t matter. Those of us who take this seriously can finally protect ourselves.

    3. dont really need to tell the truth- just have them acknowledge that they are aware of risks of patroning a business when they arent vaccinated. They still have the right to wear a mask, still have the right to find another store to go in.

    4. @Arianna Belladonna its their personal choice. maybe it wont be a problem. The vaccines are available for everyone. They might be the best science accomplishment since landing on the moon.

    1. it is ridiculous that we have to wear a mask. No other pandemic did we walk around with masks on in the hallway. Masks wont stop any virus. the lies about this is insane. They never treated people for the COVID and these fear mongering a holes should be in GITMO.

    2. @Kristina Luise there is no one who is ugly and you are caring for people and that is a beautiful thing despite anything you think. Real people see you for who you are not what you think you see in the mirror. Give your self credit, only special people can care for others especially in health care when there are so many different demands at the same time. Believe in your self! Your whole life will change.

    3. Don’t we need to get vaccinated yearly will they bring back masks as soon as percentages drop??!

  6. I am fully vaccinated and ate in a restaurant today for the first time since January 2020…(IT WAS FREAKING AWESOME!!!). I wore my mask until we were served and wore it after we finished eating. I will continue to do just that going forward.

    1. @JediNxf7 Strikes Back
      https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/286920
      SO…you’re wrong there…Fauci stated that “”In all the history of respiratory-borne viruses of any type, asymptomatic transmission has never been the driver of outbreaks. The driver of outbreaks is ALWAYS a symptomatic person.”

      I also didn’t deny that it exists, but it is equally rare….perhaps if you are worried about people who aren’t sick getting you sick then this world isn’t for you?

      I’m not worried about getting a cold, even a bad one. No, I’m concerned with being forced to take a “vaccine” with severe side effects. CDC VAERS has >50,000 injury reports and 4, 000 deaths and the EU has 7,000 deaths and ~350,000 vaccine injury reports…

      but you keep trying to convince people it is safe.

    2. @Shotgun Mouthwash you mean does nothing but… virtually eradicate the risk of contracting a transmissible disease that’s deadly to the vulnerable and pretty damn unpleasant to the rest?

      yeah I can see why you wouldn’t want that if you’re an idiot.

    3. @Shotgun Mouthwash no, you’re just ignorant and easily manipulated. VAERS is open source, unverified and of absolutely zero worth in exploring causal links. anyone can submit a report. if I get vaccinated and get hit by a truck tomorrow my family can report that vaccination causes me to die of blunt truck trauma, and it will not be taken down. anti vaxxers have spammed the database with even more misinformation since discovering it.

    4. @Shotgun Mouthwash fauci made a historically true statement. and in fact it was probably true of this one, too. that doesn’t mean he denied asymptomatic transmission or discounted it; he was pushing masks for a reason.

  7. I’m a little worried because my family are the type to say “well now I have no reason to get vaccinated because everyone else did it for me and I can go back to my normal life” (btw I’m vaccinated but my family is anti vax)

    Edit: as expected a small war has broken out down below, im just sittin back enjoying the show so feel free to join in.

    1. CDC has been always wrong. Why should we believe them now??
      Just fully vaccinate your family Dr. Death
      Texas is fully open now without vaccination

    2. Your opportunity to cut ties, family can be pain in the act and pandemic has many realization of how much weight is lifted

    3. @Chas Burns let them be alone. You re-inforce your immune system. Alcalinize your body… you will make 100 years old – people are free to put whatever they want in their body. Hwoever. Is vaccinated Rest In peace, you will not get the virus again… Why worry about others? That only tells me the vaccine is fake, you are afraid. Put your mask more is coming. That will be the test for the vaccinated.

  8. I still dont trust it. I mean I have a daughter who’s five years old. I’m honestly uncomfortable with this, I have no choice but to continue wearing my mask, I work with second graders. You can still get covid even after having your shot, I just feel uneasy with this. It’s too soon for me

    1. @paulette lamontagne the sheeple are winning and providing you with a safer place to exist. You’re welcome

    2. @Archaeopter X Fauci started from no mask to mask mandate to double mask , now maybe quadruple masks …while he went to watch baseball without mask…. So was Nancy Pelosi in hair salon without mask…. really sick to listen to these hypocrites

    3. @Archaeopter X by the end of April, with about 95 million fully vaccinated Americans, about 9000 were reported to have been subsequently infected with COVID 19. that is less than 0.01% . if you know 10,000 vaccinated people and a single one of them gets the virus, you had an *unlucky* sample compared to the national average.

      if you feel unsafe with 99.99% odds, this world was not made for you.

    4. I’m with you @DannyThorn. The long haul symptoms being reported by people who’ve survived Covid-19 infections are concerning.

    1. Don’t we need to get vaccinated yearly will they bring back masks as soon as percentages drop??!

  9. They really didn’t think this through at all, did they?
    1. Many states still have mask mandates
    2. Many businesses still have mask mandates
    3. People are going to start going without masks, then being told to put on a mask by store employees, then the person will say “the CDC said I didn’t have to wear one!!”

    This is going to be an absolute mess.

    1. 💯Brandon Massey.. These poor store employees and etc about to go through it!🤦🏽‍♀️

    2. @Marwk Molenda shouldnt be a mandatory vaccination. they just have people sign a waiver or acknowledge a waiver saying it isnt safe to patron this business if you arent fully vaccinated, and you are aware of the risks.

  10. I’m not ditching my mask, I’m good. I haven’t had covid, a cold 🥶 or flu. I’m not really missing seeing people’s faces either

    1. @Mike C You can die from many other things at way worse percentage. Do Not let the Gov control you. Trying finding a happy hobby if you scared to walk

    2. I like wearing a mask because I can make faces at people and mumble under my breath at Wally World.

    1. This is dumb is trump
      Back how do u prove ur vaccinatied The card .. here comes the fake vaccination cards

    2. @abprepboy33 I don’t understand why the majority of people who believe in science and will follow public health advice should have to suffer due to the ignorant & conspiracy theorists who only care about their own personal comfort/’rights’ & whatever other excuse you conjure up to ignore the advice of medical professionals! (You probably don’t know anyone who’s died of Covid – though you’d probably find a way to rationalize that anyhow and carry on disbelieving….)

    3. @Christina Jones ummm there’s variants look at India. That strain has made it here .. I’m starting to think they trying to kill us off.

  11. This is going to backfire!!!! Of course people are going to take the mask off knowing that they are not VACCINATED. By the end of the summer we will probably be in big trouble again 😟😟😟

    1. Don’t we need to get vaccinated yearly will they bring back masks as soon as percentages drop??!

    2. @MaJieMao actually not a bad idea- just have people check a box saying they are aware of the risk of going into a business and they are aware that the business is recommending everyone get the vaccine…… after that, gotta let people make their own choices

  12. The answer has always been the same if you’re scared stay home. I have worked everyday since the virus began as an emergency responder and I will continue.

    1. Don’t we need to get vaccinated yearly will they bring back masks as soon as percentages drop??!

  13. I took the first shot yesterday and will take the second one in 3 weeks . I will continue to wear a mask in crowds or avoid crowds for the foreseeable future !

    1. @Mark Oakley impossible to know how frequently. these vaccines are pretty powerful though…. my guess is atleast 5 yrs

    2. I mean, if you can foresee five weeks into the future and you foresee wearing a mask then, then you are being ridiculous.

    3. by the end of April, with about 95 million vaccinated Americans, about 9000 were reported to have been infected with COVID 19. that is less than 0.01% . if you know 10,000 vaccinated people and a single one of them gets the virus, you had an *unlucky* sample compared to the national average.

      if you feel unsafe with 99.99% odds, this world was not made for you.

  14. Do you really need to ask Fauci if he thinks it’s over? He will NEVER say it’s over. I think he’s made that much crystal clear.

    1. Don’t we need to get vaccinated yearly … will they bring back masks , as soon as percentages drop??!
