Yeah, imagine living into your eighties, dutifully getting vaccinated and boosted, dying of a heart attack, then a CDC official showing up four months later with a spade and a swab to exhume you and see whether they can blame it on COVID. (Case 23)

Taiwan's mask rules to remain until winter | Taiwan News | 2022-09-23 16:30:00

Masks forever! The government will protect you (except when crossing the road or dealing with shoddy construction or the myriad of other things far more likely to kill you in Taiwan than the flu)!

[finley]

Apart from the fact that his statement about masks and flu is demonstrably false, I’m pretty sure he has no legal right to announce any “mandate” re. flu. It wasn’t legally possible in 2019 so I don’t see how it’s possible now.

[tempogain]

Has there been any follow up on that? It sounded more like an opinion.

[DrewC]

So … now it’s the flu we have to be careful about? How come that wasn’t an issue a decade ago? This is beyond pathetic.

[afterspivak]

@tempogain

Has there been any follow up on that?

The only thing that has been consistently signalled is that a relaxation of mask rules will not arrive hand-in-hand with the relaxation of quaratine regulations. The CECC wants to take this one step at a time, and they’ve been saying so for weeks.

@afterspivak

The CECC wants to take this one step at a time, and they’ve been saying so for weeks.

Meanwhile, the government continues to accept their threadbare justifications for their own relevance and nonsensical pronouncements, and still hasn’t canned their paranoid asses. That’ll be a development of note, if it ever happens.
