Funny, but now the social distancing and hand washing is being called into question. There is nothing magical about 6 feet - you could be in a room with someone infected and still get sick if it is, in fact, an airborn disease. As far as hand washing - while it is a good hygenic practice, once it was determined that Covid did not transmit on surfaces, your hands were not the problem.
I don't know MM, I still think masks helped. It may not be 100% effective, yet I think it was protective to some extent. We did see a dramatic reduction in colds and flu - and the medical community in general, wear masks to prevent illness.
I'm just glad that Trump pushed big pharma on the development of the vaccine. Biden can try to take credit for it, but Trump pushed and then Biden whined that there was no distribution plan in place. I will give Biden credit for pushing it out there and making it available. And I'm glad that the FDA allowed it to be distributed. I have had Drs. tell me that the FDA can be positively pedantic in their testing requirements and prevent a lot of good drugs from hitting the market sooner. My own Dr. told me he reviewed the studies done on the Covid vaccine and saw no reason to be concerned about taking it. He said the stuides were amazingly good.
