Dear Ladybug: It is the middle of June of 2021, more than 600 thousand American are dead as a result of Covid. It is being reported that about 1 million people a day are getting vaccinated. That is great. Wish it were more but at least vaccinations are still occurring. I have been double vaccinated but still plan to wear a mask out as I live in a red state. You see in the red states, many still believe that Covid-19 was either a hoax or not as bad as the media made it sound. My question to you is how do I handle the looks and attitudes I will come up against when I go out in public with my mask on? Signed: Masked in the South until they get vaccinated or die.
Dear Masked in the South: You shouldn't feel bad if you want to continue to wear a mask. You have a right to feel apprehensive. People that are not getting vaccinated are being irresponsible. Not only with their own lives but with the lives of others. What will happen is these people will get sick and die unless they have already had Covid. If they have had Covid and survived, they may have some immunity against it. If they have somehow managed to not be exposed to it and get exposed and die, it will be nobodies fault but their own.
Have you ever heard the saying, "You can't fix stupid?" It is true. I think at some point if there are people that make others sick or die because of their irresponsibility, they will be prosecuted the same way Aids or HIV carriers who knew they were HIV positive had unprotected sex and made others sick.
They will also not be allowed to travel abroad although most people who believe these conspiracy theories are not world travelers. They don't normally make it past the Piggly Wiggley or the Dairy Queen on the edge of town so they won't care about that. What
they will care about is if they are prohibited from concerts, festivals, Nascar & other races, and any other kind of outing Trump supporting type of people enjoy.
Bottom line is enjoy your peace of mind and don't give a damn about what the bottom dwellers are thinking. Wear your mask proudly. You will be around in 2022 to smile about it.
