Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for September 19, 2020

Take a deep breath and walk by. I guess that’s what they did.

Can we please get over this ridiculous paranoia?

It’s the best solution for the circumstances Janis.

That works fine in the open, where wind and moving inhibits the build up of dangerous aerosol-concentrations. But not in an elevator or other closed environment, even if you’re just “passing through”.

>Sigh!<

The best solution is to LIVE YOUR LIFE NORMALLY!!!! What a crock of S*** this whole thing is. People are fools.

JJ, nice comic exaggeration of an outdoor suburban pass-by.

Welcome to 2020, “Year of the NY/NJ Epidemic.” Why do you suppose everything happens in the northeast corridor?

The Center For Disease Control defines “close contact” as: “If you have been in close contact, such as within 6 feet of a person with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection for at least 15 minutes.”

With this as a testing guideline I think J and acquaintance are pretty safe.

Now, cry “Havoc!” and let slip the dogs of political comments.

Speaking seriously, I wonder how long it will be before people decide that the enforcers can’t get everyone and massive noncompliance quickly sweeps the nation.

Things could become interesting.

(does not understand this cartoon; wonders about whether it is part of a longer story or not)

You cant catch the flu from casual contact like that.

No, you turn around and go get your masks. Can’t hold your breath all day. THAT would be hazardous to your health.

Pretend it’s 1968 and and the Hong Kong flu pandemic is going on (it was just a bad flu season), just say hello as you pass by.

My church is having services tomorrow for the first time since March (with masks, etc..) and I want to go. But – I just read an article that on a scale of safe to dangerous, attending church is one of the worse things you can possibly do in terms of contracting the virus. I don’t know what to do. (I’m very much compromised for a few reasons – not good if I get it)

Idiocy.

Oh come on.

Outdoors for a walk by yourself you don’t need a mask, but you do need to keep your distance from other people.

One word. QANON.

Lol…. It’s like going into the grocery store and saying…Oops! I Forgot my Mask!

I’ve been saying since the beginning “It’s not about you, it’s about who you might give it to.” That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it.

I guess Puff Adders and Blow fish have the same problems…

Wear protection for your eyes. The virus can be carried on the air too. i never go anywhere without my mask on. I wear wrap around sunglasses for eye protection.

Walk out into the street.

If you can get the Covid19 virus while walking down the street and passing by someone on a nice day, then we are all doomed.

The masks are not needed except for use by tyrants who want to keep control over the weak minded. There has been over whelming proof that they are not needed, and that all this hiding away has not helped in any way. I expect to get a lot of hate and curses.

The next time you need surgery, tell your surgeon s/he and the entire operating team can forego their masks then, since there is “overwhelming proof” that they are not needed.

Masks keep out the virus like pants keep in a phart.

You really are a special kind of childish stupid.

I think one of you is supposed to cross the street, or walk in the street …

Stupid I’m getting off this comic
