Again, wearing a mask is more to protect others from you.  If life was fair, this would be a Darwin moment and all the aggrieved snowflakes refusing to wear masks would eat it. But life is not fair.

Smite me, soy boys.

Is this an agriculturally based epithet, or for people who don't drink Real Man Milk?

I don’t really know the origin but the picture I have in my mind is of effeminate modern males who have low testosterone and elevated estrogens due to diet and/or environment. The soy specific reference perhaps referring to the much studied soybean isoflavones. But I could be wrong.

GOP Senator: 'Haven't Decided' if I'll Wear Mask at Trump's Tulsa Rally

Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) confirmed on Sunday that he’ll attend President Trump’s upcoming campaign rally in Oklahoma, adding that despite the state’s rising coronavirus cases he has yet to decide if he’ll wear a face mask during the event, the Daily Beast reports.

During an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union, Lankford was asked by anchor Jake Tapper about the Tulsa rally, which will be held this Saturday in an arena that has canceled all other events through July due to the COVID-19 pandemic that has killed over 115,000 Americans.

“CDC guidelines say that you shouldn’t go into a packed arena indoors,” Tapper noted. “But if you do, you should wear masks. Are you going to be wearing a mask? Would you encourage other attendees to wear a mask?”

Noting that he’s recently worn a mask at a restaurant and thus assumes he’s “going to have it,” the Republican lawmaker went on to say he’s still “trying to figure out the best way to be able to do this.”

“You see actually very few masks in Oklahoma now,” Lankford said, further adding: “There are still some that use masks. But we encourage people strongly if they’re high-risk individuals, if they’re older individuals, if they have other health issues not to get out even with a mask.”

Let’s see: indoor setting, lots of people (including seniors), close quarters, and chanting and shouting.

I vote for wearing the mask and encouraging others to do so.

This graphic is interesting but will be misinterpreted by most. Illinois new cases per day has been falling more than most states so they get a green color, but that doesn't mean that Illinois new cases are lower than states with red hues.

Illinois has the sixth highest per capita rate of infection of the 50 states. So they've been having a lot of cases. A drop in the number of new daily cases means it's getting bad less fast compared to what it was doing in Illinois previously, but it doesn't mean it's getting bad less fast than other places.

Mn and NoDak look to be the only 2 states where hospital visits are increasing, yet Mn gets a downward trending arrow and 4 nice green check marks for meeting goals or maintaining a steady ship.

Good luck with whatever your preferred outcome is!  Hard to tell these days.
