Hunker Down

The Aunt that has custody of our 3 grandkids has the virus. Her daughter and son in law does too. They all live in one house. The adults had been vaccinated.

Our 2 teenaged grandkids are vaccinated, the 11 yr old is not.

The Aunt has 2 grandkids under age of 5 of her own with her daughter.  the 2 grandkids do not show signs of the virus.

Talked to a neighbor of the park model trailer we are rebuilding. He is one of the near full paranoid folks on the virus. Yet he was not wearing a mask since he is "home"..  He stayed at least 10 feet from me and my wife in the street as we chatted.

I commented that I see some folks wearing masks in their cars alone and parking lots.  He says he wears a mask outdoor because you can catch the virus outdoors too. I asked him if he meant in crowds at outdoor events and he said just anywhere, walking around, the virus can float in the air and spread.

That is a belief shared my many out here, as well.  ....I guess the virus travels as a cloud??

Any bodies guess at some things. I dont question folks with or without masks. No body has commented to me in public on my not wearing a mask.  I dont know their health needs nor they know mine. I have had some "stern" looks from people wearing masks in stores.

Yet when I see a person in a parking lot or alone in a car with a mask on... It just make me wonder what is the reason.  I just go with the health problems they may have.

On the flipp side: my brother and his wife have health problems and will not wear a mask. Till 3 weeks ago they refused any "guberment" vaccine.  Now they want to be vaccinated.    I should ask him if they went forward on vaccine or not.

I told my brother that people are in the hospital with the Fauci - Wuhan virus not because of the vaccine for the virus.  Very few pl have died because they were vaccinated.

If I wear a mask now, I try to have my face cover that looks like a bandit from the old west robbing a train.  I bought one from Lucky Costa that he sold for a while with his logo on it.  ALthough I may try to find a lamp shade that would fit and wear that.

I wonder if people who wear masks in their cars have the same problem that I do. With behind the ear hearing aids, I can't wear the loop type masks that go behind my ears, as they get tangled with my hearing aids, so maybe they just leave them on for the next stop?  I wear the 3M masks, and if I come out of a store with my hands full, it waits til I unload the stuff, as it takes two hands to remove it.

Many Asians have been wearing masks for years, way before covid hit. I don't know what was in the air over there.

When I was in China a few years ago many people wore masks. Our interpreter said it was because of air pollution, which was really bad where we were. A haze in the air all the time with a faint garbage fire smell to go with it. Never saw the sun shining for three weeks.

I am guilty of wearing a mask in my truck.....I also forget to remove my safety glasses until I park in the driveway some days

I put on my mask in drive throughs, because I'm talking directly face to face with someone and usually a bit loudly. I don't make it a habit to drive with one, but I'm sure people have seen me driving with one because I don't necessarily get in a hurry to take it off once I'm moving. I might also do it if I'm going directly between two places which are close together. The loops sometimes get behind the temples of my glasses, which is a bit annoying. I'm not really worried about being outside, though if I had to be outside for long periods in a crowd I'd mask. I do stand a bit farther away from people than before most of the time, but these days most people do.

yep, I wear behind the ear (BTE) hearing aids and glasses. The loop type mask does not work well for me. That is why I wear the gun slinger style face covering or the gator one piece deal

We are scheduled for the vaccine booster shot  and regular flu shot in a week...    I was at a Walgreens last night about 7:30pm. The pharmacy was near empty. 1 guy waiting on vaccine shot. 2 of us in line for pickup. There are signs still in place about the booster shot available.

[sirstude]

I have a couple months to go for the booster, and need to call my doc to get the flue shot.  Better make a call this afternoon

We saw this bicycle rider thursday. Seems like the mask may hinder breathing while riding a bike?

I think oxygen was already cut off to the brain previously.

My grandson's neighbor, his wife's cousin, is in the ICU with Corvid. He is 31 years old. It doesn't look like he will make it. Not vaccinated. He has a four year old son.
