Not a Coincidence

Our winter place is in Nevada near the border with Utah. For daily essentials we buy locally, for larger purchases and decent restaurants we go across the border to Utah.

In NV everyplace requires face masks for Covid. In nearby Utah hardly anybody is masked. NV has a Democrat governor, UT has a Republican governor. Is this correlation a coincidence? Probably not.

Medical decisions appear to have become a matter of partisan politics. Does that make any sense to you? I take it to be an example of partisanship running amok, yet another symptom of what is wrong with our polity.
