No, no we will NOT continue masking forever ANYWHERE, NPR. Deal with it.
It’s almost as if NPR feels like they have to continue proving they shouldn’t be taken seriously about anything. We can see their leadership sitting around, trying to figure out which stupid and ridiculous take they can put out next.
Case in point:
Are there certain places where we should just continue masking — forever? We asked three experts to weigh in.
There are still hundreds of thousands of COVID cases reported in the U.S. each week, along with a few thousand deaths related to COVID.
But with mask mandates a thing of the past and the national emergency health declaration that will expire in May, we are in a new phase of the pandemic.
Life looks a little more normal here in the U.S. than it did a few years ago, but decisions on how to deal with the virus aren’t over yet.
China had a huge increase in cases last month after abandoning its zero COVID policy, and another variant prompted renewed recommendations in some airports. Researchers estimate that more than 65 million people are struggling with the effects of COVID — a disease we still have to learn about.
However, masking requirements are being lifted in places like Spain and Germany.
Wondering if and when you should still be masking up? NPR asked some experts.
