What's interesting is you don't have to wear a mask if you've been vaccinated -- Walmart, Costco, Starbucks, Publix Say Vaccinated Guests Won't Be Required to Wear Face Masks.
A couple of things. You can still get the virus (lesser chance if you've been vaccinated) like one can still get the flu even after getting the flu shot.
Second, the mask was to prevent you from giving it to others. Others who have it could still give it to you. In terms of protection, it was supposed to prevent getting a worse infection.
Actually vaccinations can't and don't prevent infection at all.
But they do shorten and lessen symptoms, so reduce your chances of spreading it.
Think about it.
Vaccines give immunity, but that just means the ability to quickly identify an infection and destroy it.
It does not mean you don't have to first get infected and only then does the immune system start to kick in.

Uh, no.
Understanding How COVID-19 Vaccines Work
Learn how COVID-19 vaccines work and develop immunity to the virus.www.cdc.gov
ExactlyYou are totally wrong.
There is absolutely no way any vaccine for covid-19 can prevent infection.
The vaccine is not magic, so the immune system can not possibly even know about a site of infection in the body until it has attacked enough cells so that an exosome warning finally gets detected by the immune system. Only then does the immune system START to produce antibodies to search for and attack the site of infection.

A lot of stuff circulating on the internet right now about the various methods of potential action being taken and considered. Social distancing, shelter in place, total lockdown etc..
This article, which includes some simulators on various methods, makes some sense to me.

Make of it what you will. Thought I would post it, as it helped me to compare some of the various solutions based on a model of the spread of this thing, which seems to be a primary concern at the moment.

There’s pandemic modeling that is forecasting as high as 1.7 million deaths from this virus. There are roughly 4 million deaths in the U.S. per year.
As I said on the other thread, I really hope "flattening the curve" is worth the economic devastation that is already here, and will continue.
Stuart Varney just said, and I quote directly, "the economy is collapsing"
77 people in my county with Coronavirus. But five people THAT I KNOW who lost their jobs. Already. Within days.
We're idiots. That's it. Just idiots.
I hope it's worth it too.
Where did you get the idea it will be several more weeks before an accurate guess at number of infections becomes strong enough to model?
Worst-Case Estimates for U.S. Coronavirus Deaths
"One of the agency’s top disease modelers, Matthew Biggerstaff, presented the group on the phone call with four possible scenarios — A, B, C and D — based on characteristics of the virus, including estimates of how transmissible it is and the severity of the illness it can cause.
"The assumptions, reviewed by The New York Times, were shared with about 50 expert teams to model how the virus could tear through the population — and what might stop it.
"The C.D.C.’s scenarios were depicted in terms of percentages of the population.
"Translated into absolute numbers by independent experts using simple models of how viruses spread, the worst-case figures would be staggering if no actions were taken to slow transmission.
"Between 160 million and 214 million people in the United States could be infected over the course of the epidemic, according to a projection that encompasses the range of the four scenarios."
"That could last months or even over a year, with infections concentrated in shorter periods, staggered across time in different communities, experts said.
"As many as 200,000 to 1.7 million people could die."

Epidemics do not spread exponentially, but geometrically.
Here is the exact quote from the link:
When something doubles, it has a multiplication factor of 2, and when you have a multiplication factor, that is geometric growth.
Exponential growth is when it is growth by an exponent, such as if you have a series where the number is squared for the next, like 1, 2, 4, 16, 256, 65,536, ...
1 times 1 is still 1.
