The CDC’s critics are wrong. The agency was right to relax indoor masking.

Indeed it was, and I am not saying that just because I dislike masks. Vaccines are available to all, except kids, who don’t tend to get severely ill (or barely even ill at all) from Covid. Unless you are in a high-risk group now, if you don’t get vaccinated it’s on you. (And as a cruel aside, at least the Trumpist anti-vaxxers are only going to be killing themselves and each other soon. That’s some justice there.)

Cases are in freefall. It’s time to ease up, ya’ll. You don’t have to cower inside crying. I mean, you can if you want to, but I’d rather not. And I’m not gonna.
