BOB..we are a grest area to live…we think for ourselves..only a few sheeple…Joy..don’t worry so much misinformation about covid..an these so called vaccines…all is well..stop listening to the corruption in the media.
It’s over, kids have been going to school for several months together?? My remote learning student has not gone to school with the exception for testing and every single time I guarantee you my child wore a mask Every. Single. Time.
They just had another round of testing which was interrupted by a student projectile vomiting in class. The faculty moved the testing to another room but I thank God Almighty that me and my family have the sense to get vaccinated and have reached the allotted time for full effectiveness.
I am overjoyed at the mask mandates disappearing but I will still be cautious until I see for myself that we indeed have started some form of recovery. The Lake is opening soon and me and a lot of my fellow Escambia County neighbors sorely need some Lake time.
@Bob
And many more will be looking to move into your place.
Bob…..
BYE… One less person here will not matter and open up a tiny space for 15 more.
People like Joy would never make it without gov control.
The danger is over… Those that were at risk already got vaccinated or…. But otherwise we are not going to keep allowing the gov to tell us how to live.
Joy you can set at home and dig a bunker to keep the sky from hitting ya, OR get out there and see the world.
Bob……bye. Try New York. I think you’ll be happy wearing your mask with no restaurant open.
@ bob
delta ready when you are !
@joy and @Oversight
At this point, I’ve given up on my community.
We spent the last year watching 700 of our neighbors die from a preventable disease, and learned nothing. We decided that haircuts, Applebee’s, and anti-mask/anti-vaxing was more important than protecting our most vulnerable members.
One positive thing about COVID-19: It has really shed a light on how selfish the people of Escambia County are. I thought that this was a safe place to live and raise a family with kind people and Southern hospitality. I’m sorry to say that I was wrong.
Do whatever ya’ll want. Once the housing market calms down, my family is leaving. I love the beaches, the Blue Angels, and the fishing. It’s just a shame the people couldn’t be better.
Joy, you do realize these kids have been going to school together for several months now. No masks (and if they did wear masks, they weren’t worn “correctly”), no “social distancing” and NO VACCINE.
Super spreader event? The sky is falling, the sky is falling. But not really, Joy. If you’re concerned, stay at home and wear double masks while you watch the live stream of the event.
Great for the kids and families HUGE mistake as well!! Either we all have vaccines and/or show proof before entering a super spreader event with teenagers that haven’t yet had their 2 vaccines.
BEFORE YOU ALL GET TICKED OFF – I wish this wasn’t a dangerous situation – HOWEVER, whenever people are ignorant of the truth of these vaccines – they put us in danger!
and I NEVER want to see our country like India due to ignorance!!
