New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

I'll make it easy to determine if you are at high risk from COVID. Are you alive? If you answer YES, then you are at high risk. If asked at a pharmacy if you have a high-risk condition, say yes. There's no need to tell them which condition you have.

Section 4 on page 4 has the relevant language prohibiting face coverings to conceal identity. It requires federal law enforcement to comply with CPD standards, which do allow for medical masks and respirators.

The COVID-19 pandemic undermined the right in several key ways: 1) It showed us which workers are essential and empowered them. 2) It showed that the markets can’t solve everything. 2) It threatened GOP political prospects in a critical election. 4) Government relief proved popular and effective

Argue with SARS-2. A pandemic is ongoing. Major medical institutions have declared the emergency phase of the pandemic over. Biden & Trump lied & did fail, and hundreds of thousands died. Children were sent back to schools with mask & testing protections withdrawn & no air purifiers to face Omicron.
