You know, you can only push these mandates for so long before people are going to say, “nah, we’re done.” AFAIK, over a month or two ago, I posted something from the CDC on another Covid thread Saying that the death count from Covid (that’s also taking into account people who died from other means but happened to have Covid), has fallen below the line of being considered a pandemic.
I’m sorry, but mandating more rules and regulations can only get so far before people aren’t going to comply. If the powers that be insist on mandating these rules (I refuse to call them guidelines since our government apparently sees them as “laws” and not guidelines), then GIVE US A DROP DEAD GOAL DATE. All they keep doing is bumping the goal post further and further. It’s gone from “14 days to slow the spread” to “we’re gonna stay locked down till no one gets sick ever again.”
If these “guidelines” and mandates keep going into next year, I promise you compliance will Plummet. Even when the parks reopen in SoCal, I may go once for the sake of going back on rides, but I may wait until the covid restrictions blow over. Getting screamed at to wear a mask all day doesn’t sound like fun to me so I’m going to wait.
So if they really want to keep people safe, they should give people a reasonable deadline and quit bumping the goalpost. But I’m sure the restrictions will ease up after...well, you’ve seen my last post on here. By then the hysteria will die down.
