I read through the article and I call BS on it. First of all, I don't think the CDC actually mandates anything, it is up to local areas of government to make that decision, and sadly, it apparently doesn't take much.

People can decide for themselves in areas of high transmission? Notice how the CDC deftly avoids talking about what needs to be talked about. They don't address if masking works. If this were, let's say Smallpox, would you trust a mask to protect you from getting it? 30% death rate back when it first ran through the population, but hey, wear a mask and it's all good, right?

For a 30% death rate, I'd lock down. I think. It would make sense if 1 in 3 people died from it. This disease has a .14% death rate for the whole population. Even if masked worked, do we really need to wear one to accommodate .14% of the population? If so, start making a list of things I want banned because it also affects small areas of the population. Let's start with banning carbs and sugar...because diabetics.
