My work crew is taking bets.Why didn't someone tell me the pandemic was over? I mean we don't need to mask up on planes anymore- and people are travelling by the millions for the holiday, and looks like most of society has just decided to completely go back to normal living. Must be the pandemic is over!!!!! Am I missing something?
I doubt she's been wearing a mask around her husband, but it didn't occur to me to ask her about that. And I don't know why the 2nd booster would protect her but not him--it might just be individual variation in response. Anyway, I'm glad she didn't get sick, and he only has had cold-type symptoms.
I am puzzled as to how long the booster is protective-- I don't want to get the 2nd booster before 6 months after the first booster. I just don't feel comfortable getting it sooner, but I wonder at what point does the 3rd shot wane to the point of not providing much protection. For me 6 months will be mid- May. I heard a physician speak on one of the cable channels this morning: she stated that they do not know how long immunity lasts with natural infection or with vaccines and she expressed concern about that.
I'm just furious and frustrated that one judge has the power to, IMO, jeopardize millions of people by overruling the mask mandate on airplanes and in airports.
I am certainly hoping this is won on appeal. I have to go to Florida again to help my parents and even though I hate to go with Covid still around, I have to fly there. Millions of people from all across the country and the world, intermingling, is a nightmare. Cases are already way up here in NY again.

Wear a mask if you want, get boosted if you want, stay isolated as much as possible if you want. JMO.
I am so with you on this-- the potential to damage the health of millions
of people is incalcuable- as far as i know there has not been an appeal yet
I don't see why there should be an appeal since the federal mandate will expire in a couple of weeks anyway.supposedly they are thinking about an appeal...
Justice Department to appeal mask mandate if CDC approves
a little chaotic now- NY Port Auth says mask; NJ Port Auth says no...
Justice Department to appeal mask mandate if CDC approvesThe federal mask mandate was announced in January 2021. Before the judge's decision, the mandate was set to last through at least May 3. It required face coverings on airplanes, trains, buses and public transportation hubs.

This. I have zero desire to get on a plane. I would probably wear a mask if I had to fly. JMO
true- they would have to appeal super fast to reimpose the restriction and then here we are whipsawing everyone back and forth.
