1.3 mile walk to return an Amazon package. I counted 54 people I passed on the street  47 wearing masks. Most younger than me. It sunny, a little breezy, and 73 right now. It’s going to be interesting to see how hostile people get over masks. I guess there’s a limit to “Science is real.”

May I ask where you live if you don't mind?

Edit: Just read an earlier post indicating that you live in the PNW.

And the CDC just eliminated all testing requirements for all vaccinated cruise ship passengers.  In light of their new guidance, this makes perfect sense to me.  For all intents and purposes, the fully vaccinated are getting all restrictions lifted with a few notable exceptions.  I'd expect cruising to resume in July in a limited fashion.  I have no doubt this policy shift is a conscious effort to encourage more folks to vaccinate.  I have my own theory as to the timing but won't go into that here.

How are the cruise lines to know which passengers are vaccinated?

  if they ain't wearing a mask, they must be vaccinated, eyn'a?

if one wants the vaccine, go get it!  if you are vaccinated, who cares who's wearing the mask and who's not?

I would hope a vaccine passport.

Hawaii already has said they will require visitors to have one.

Seems like common sense and smart policy.

  i don't know if this is "click-bait", but slippery slope man!  you do realize that african americans are among the least vaccinated, right?  slippery slope

"The CDC reports demographic characteristics, including race/ethnicity, of people receiving COVID-19 vaccinations at the national level. As of May 11, 2021, CDC reported that race/ethnicity was known for just over half (55%) of people who had received at least one dose of the vaccine. Among this group, nearly two thirds were White (63%), 13% were Hispanic, 9% were Black, 6% were Asian, 1% were American Indian or Alaska Native, and <1% were Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, while 8% reported multiple or other race. However, to date, CDC is not providing state-level demographic data for people vaccinated."

Drivers Licenses, man! Just like Nazi Germany!

I suspect all cruise lines will initially be 'vaccinated only'.  The hurdles the CDC has established for unvaxxed are likely too onerous for the lines to willingly accept.  I'd guess that cruisers will be bringing their vax card and signing an affidavit.

To be specific, Portland. It was when I was near downtown today

I rode 24 miles this afternoon. Some with masks running or biking but more without. Fewer than I’d seen in the past.

Were any of them hostile?

I had earbuds in so if they were I didn’t hear it. I expect it more in situations where people are stationary (lines, street corners). Outdoor stadiums will be interesting. The owner of the Portland Timbers said masks will no longer be required and some of the leaders of the fan group are angry at him for doing it,

in other words, you didn't know that.  fair enough.

    now how are you going to explain the racist part about needing a "vaccine passport" to go places, not wear a mask and not social distance.  you know, do not be "super spreaders"?

Nads, you are 100% correct. I do know. Most y'all only read what is written in history books, aina?

^^^^^
This "health care professional" doesn't understand the key difference between AIDS and Covid.

You do realize that government agencies already require proof of certain vaccinations right?  This isn't new.

Your white victimhood knows no bounds.

And you know shockingly little about medical science.

I think its cute that rocket supposedly cares about racism.

Getting vaccinations into the arms of Black people has been elusive in the Charlotte area, as in many other areas.

One of our county commissioners told the Charlotte Observer that overcoming the gap in vaccination rates may require an “over-correction in the way we are distributing and allocating the vaccine."

Of course, as soon as such a program is enacted, rocket and his ilk will be decrying "affirmative action for immunizations."

He doesn't give a about racism, as he has shown in dozens (maybe hundreds) of comments. He wants to use Black people as pawns in his white-victimhood "gotcha" game. It's so obvious and cynical.

you guys look cute together-your turn sully

fyi sully, us healthcare professionals had to put our lives and consequentially, that of our families on the line.  especially with the aids crisis of late 80's.  our careful attention to detail also prevented the spread to the general public and people like you and 82 as well...you're welcome
