    68 homes priced from low-$400,000 coming to Irvine

    Masks?

    Why is it so difficult for you to understand levels of evidence? Fauci said it was 'likely' to be more efficacious to double up. Fauci said the data is not definitive (ie not rigorously proven). Makes perfect sense to anyone not a conspiracy winger

    Covid UK Strain, children & masks
