When the Spanish Flu hit, people wore masks...and then they came off when people were tired of it and did not see the justification for wearing them further. Legislators and politicians backed off because they didn't want to lose their jobs.
California and Michigan seem to have a "screw you peons, you're gonna mask until we reach herd immunity; and that will happen when we say it does" attitude. I really hope their population remembers this next election cycle so that no amount of ballot stuffing will save the swamp from losing a few seats.
In Washington our tyrant won November re-election in a landslide, and to add just that little extra touch of "fuck you", the police department which employed his opponent laid him off shortly after the election.
The rolling blackouts are more likely to take out Newsom than WuFlu: that's what did in Gray Davis 20 years ago. Don't fuck with people's AC in the summer. Funny how that particular issue has reared its head again.
I'm willing to bet money that these people are acting this arrogant about policies that are manifestly unpopular because they were not legitimately elected.
The worst thing I saw during this is that I know a professor at Yale Medical school that wrote a book on the Spanish Flu. There is an entire chapter about masks and the conclusion it had no effect on the outcome. She was calling for people to wear masks and even double mask. I then quoted her own words back to her.

Greater Idaho is calling.
Northern Idaho is gorgeous country. If I wasn't as concerned about demographic changes to that state it'd be a no-brainer.
State of Jefferson should have happened

What book is it?
