Which colleges are requiring masks? School districts? Private (non-healthcare) employers?
A college in Atlanta is requiring masks. Face mask requirement reinstated at Atlanta college

It is not government, right? And not in Massachusetts.

The government (CDC) doesn't even track covid cases anymore.

The government (POTUS) claims the pandemic is over.

You make it sound like "the government" is ignoring covid, It is not.

What was declared over was the medical emergency. The pandemic continues, though edging toward becoming endemic.

My statements are accurate. See any covid cases being tracked at the link you provided?

During an interview on "60 Minutes", Joe Biden absolutely declared the pandemic to be over.

And it's 100% about money.

Not tracking cases does not mean not tracking covid.

Tracking cases became difficult when fewer people test and those who do home tests do not report the results.

Biden often misspeaks, but perhaps you are unaware of that.

What ended was the public health emergency.

Again, my statements are accurate. The public believes the pandemic is over, and that is because of Joe Biden's declaration.

I don't know why you are defending the government here. Their response has been disgusting. They've been downplaying covid (and keeping the public in the dark) ever since Omicron. And, again, it's all because of money.

And the show is beginning. https://www.mwra.com/biobot/biobotdata.htm
And many colleges and schools haven't even started yet. Looks like it's going to be worse than last fall.

So one college in Georgia, with a total enrollment of under 300 students, requires masks and that's enough for you to say, "MaNdAtEs ArE CoMinG BaCK!!!" You guys are really reaching lol.
