    You're a Canadian. Of course you've never met a handout that you didn't like. In other news: Water is Wet.

          Too late for masks. I drove down the beach today and it was packed. No masks.

              Researchers found that case counts and deaths “slowed significantly” within 20 days of putting mask mandates into place, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said at a White House news briefing Friday, reaffirming federal guidance that people should wear masks when they are in public and around others.

              “I know the idea of relaxing mask-wearing and getting back to everyday activities is appealing, but we’re not there yet,” Walensky said. “And we have seen this movie before: When prevention measures like mask mandates are rolled back, cases go up.”
              ... while US COVID-19 infections have slowed they have plateaued at a high level. 519,000 US souls have perished in one year. Vaccines are on the way but this is not the time to stop wearing mask, social distancing or washing your hands.

                We're about to find out. I live in a tourist area and I've never seen so many folks on the coast. Beaches are packed. The casinos are at full capacity.

                            Utah Gov: We Will Roll Back Mask Mandate on April 10



                            During an interview with the Fox News Channel on Saturday, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox (R) said that the state will roll back its mask mandate while keeping the mandate for schools and large gatherings in place. Cox stated that while he’s unsure if April 10 is exactly the right date, he feels confident about the state’s trajectory given its vaccine progress.


                            Cox said, [relevant remarks begin around 2:50] “So, we’ve been working on this with our legislature. Look, everyone wants to end the mask mandates. We don’t want these to go on one day longer than is absolutely necessary, but we also have this opportunity right now. We’re vaccinating over 25,000 people every day in the state of Utah. And so, figuring out the right moment to do that, again, we’ve been working very closely with our legislature. We will be rolling back part of the mask mandate on April 10. We will still have a mask mandate for schools and for large gatherings, but the broader mandate will go away on April 10. Whether that’s too early or too late, I don’t know, but what I do know is that right now, every person in Utah with a risk factor above one for the coronavirus, that’s everybody over the age of 50 and anybody with any underlying comorbidities, are now eligible to get the vaccine. And we anticipate that by April 1, every adult in the state of Utah will be eligible for the vaccine. We should have about 1.5 million vaccines in the state by April 10, when that mandate goes away. So, we feel really good about where we’re headed and where we’re going to end up.”
                            Smart there waiting until everyone is Vaccinated

                            We will still have a mask mandate for schools and for large gatherings, but the broader mandate will go away on April 10.
