“Federal health officials said Tuesday that fully vaccinated people can go without masks outdoors when walking, jogging or biking, or dining with friends at outdoor restaurants — a milestone development for tens of millions of pandemic-weary Americans after more than a year of masking up and locking down.”

I’m not out here burning my masks but I’d be lying if I said this news didn’t make me do a happy dance…

It’s the same here. It’s the worry about still passing the virus on to someone not vaccinated that worries me, so I’m still going masked up for a while.

I have to say it was really nice to make it through a winter without catching one of those horrific head colds/stomach flus. I might be one of those people who embraces masks as a long term choice. My kids will be so embarrassed. 😆😆

Yes, to me it was just revisiting the common sense we, as vaccinated people, have already been practicing. I still wear my mask everyday no matter where I am unless I am actually putting food in my mouth. I think we can still contract Covid and pass it on. We just won’t die from it 😦

What means the most to me is the idea that in a few weeks I’ll be able to hug my fully vaccinated dad and in-laws for the first time in over a year. It’s been rough…
