ALF Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 New Orleans EMS can't keep up with calls due to the Covid-19 surge as mayor restores a mask mandate Emergency medical responders in New Orleans have been hit so hard by the resurgence in Covid-19 cases that the city doesn't have the capacity to handle 911 calls, the mayor said Friday as she announced a new mask mandate and a contract to increase EMS resources. "Thanks to the Delta variant, the Covid pandemic is once again raging out of control." New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell said at a news conference. "This is a very dangerous number," she said.

If this is the picture from the Phillipines their government requires protections such as this. Respecting the rules of the country you’re visiting as SecDef is OK.

There is nothing in the Philippines that requires that. They have masking rules like we do. The over the top shield and everything is theatre.

They in June looked into it, but no law was put into place. Look at the rest of the people around him the vast majority have just the cheap masks we wore.

My reading says the Phillipines requires face coverings. I would rather the representatives of our government respect the rules of the country they visit vs. not, even if it seems like overkill. I think the Phillipines should not require such extremes for vaccinated people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you don’t think the US Government doesn’t know what the people in the Philippines are wearing BEFORE the Secretary gets off the plane you’re kidding yourself. (It’d be like a guy coming to a Bills game in a winter parka in early October because he heard it was Buffalo!) Ya have to admit, it doesn’t look good.

"We've seen over the past couple of weeks a pretty dramatic increase," Dunbar told CNN by phone Friday. "A good number more of children are requiring hospitalization." "A good number.."

Big Blitz Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 California Calls For Universal Masking In Indoor Public Settings 1 Week After Newsom Said, “We Don’t Need Masks” On July 20, California Governor Gavin Newsom, amid increasing Covid 19 infections in the state, urged every eligible resident to get vaccinated. When asked about other preventative measures, the governor, who is facing a recall election in September, said increased vaccination was all the state needed. “The answer to the Delta variant is vaccination,” said Newsom. “We don’t need masking. Just get vaccinated.” What a difference a week — ok, eight days — makes. https://deadline.com/2021/07/california-universal-masking-indoor-public-settings-1234801593/ Solid leadership from the NEA....I mean Newsome.

What’s really pathetic is how the media excoriated Trump for not directing individual State’s policies LAST summer but do you hear a peep out of these partisan windbags now? Nope! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
