[NFB-Talk] Mask Mandates

[William Outman]

Sorry to hear we had trouble with COVID cases at the convention, but I am not surprised. The up tick was not necessarily forseeable when plans were finalized. 
I attended virtually, but mostly for financial reasons. 
We were not alone, though, as I understand ACB had some COVID difficulties at their convention.

Of course the CDC could change that depending on infection rates. It should also be noted that since the mask mandate on public transportation was struck down a few months ago the number of disruptive airplane passenger complaints have also dropped. It wouldn’t surprise me if in everyone’s interest the NFB returned to a totally virtual convention next year depending on what is happening with COVID-19 and Monkey Pocks. JMO.

Yesterday and today I started feeling better, but someone told me there were quite a few people who ended up testing positive at the convention and encouraged me to get tested, which I did today.  I am encouraging everybody on these lists who may feel even mild symptoms to please get tested and inform anybody you may have had close contact with since coming back if you do test positive.  I hope everyone tests negative and anyone who tests positive I hope recovers quickly.  Take care.
