I would like to see it return. The same selfish people will thumb their noses at public health. Our shared beliefs of compassion, empathy and community are being replaced by the idea of me and I. How does one believe they are more important than everyone else's life. Thank God I don't underst that.

What if we never reach it? What's the end game? People who aren't vaccinated now are probably never going to get vaccinated.

Low vaccination rates, high Delta variant spread.

But masks were literally the only incentive to get vaccinated. Unvaccinated people will for sure not get it now. Why would they.

If we ever want to get rid of this ugly virus we have to get vaccinated and wear our masks until it is gone!!!

If masks get reinstated we will wear them forever unvaccinated people don't want to get vaccinated. Even if the mandate gets reinstated they still won't wear masks. It will literally only be people who are vaccinated.

You can ask this question in another way. "Do you want the covid illness to continue to spread unchecked, causing severe illness and death to some in your community?"

cases are up. What we aren't told is how many of these are asymptomatic, how many with very mild symptoms, and importantly, how many of these were fully vaccinated. No one is talking about new deaths in Columbia and County, because there haven't been any recent ones here.

The masking mandates are a joke, remember the walking into a restaurant wearing it but once your seated you can take it off? Where are all these dying covid people? No we don't need any more goofy mandates that requires a bacteria laden petri dish covering our faces and restricting our oxygen. No th

Surgeons wear masks so they won't get Gall stones. Ya right.

Masks are good for people who are afraid of the dark. Masks are of no value to healthy and sane people. If you feel you need a mask, please wear one, or two.

It's too hot for one thing, and it lowers O2 intake.

The Government has done enough damage with mandates. Leave us along so we can resume a life without the Government tells us every move we can make. If you want to wear a mask, go ahead. it wont bother me, but don't try to violate my life with mandates that affect my life. America is about Freedom.

I already got vaccinated so I shouldn't have to keep being forced to be uncomfortable every time I leave my house.

They did nothing to stop the spread the first time. They're unnecessary. Just get vaccinated and stop living in fear.

If people can't be bothered to get vaccinated, why should I have to wear a mask to protect THEM?

When you get a drivers license, you should also be administered a CCW and a 9mm.

No, because blue states give "illegal aliens" drivers licenses, without even having to take a test. Then they use the drivers licenses, as proof to vote.

60 Missouri Peace Officers Associations wanted to enforce illegal Federal Firearm Laws. More than 540 Missouri Peace Officers Associations disagreed. This is an attempt to override the 2nd Amendment. It's time to punish criminals, not law abiding Americans. Lets get rid of this phony administration.

Joe would demand we buy them from his blood brother, and joint businessman Xi Jinping. That way Joe gets his 10%.
