Most of the U.S. problem is low mask-wearing rate (encouraged by certain politicians) and lack of testing (and lack of quick results). Plenty of other countries have gotten the virus under control. Meanwhile we have lots of people who refuse to wear a mask for even the short time it takes to get groceries. Not to mention super-spreader events like the South Dakota motorcycle rally, the Ozarks huge pool party, certain maskless political rallies, colleges reopening for in-person classes and expecting college kids not to behave like college kids...
But enough about that - I’ve gotten 3 massages in DC since June and the masks seem to have worked even in that situation. It’s Sept. 27 and I’m still here. ???
