Ted Cruz: It Never Made Any Sense Once You Are Vaccinated to Wear a Mask

EXCERPT:

CRUZ: “And I've got to say, I think Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been playing politics with COVID-19. They've been playing politics by keeping schools shut down. The science is absolutely clear, kids should be in school in person today. The science is unequivocal on that. But they also were playing politics on masks, that it never made any sense once you are vaccinated to wear a mask. And unfortunately, Biden and Harris and the administration kept saying, 'Wear a mask, wear a mask, wear a mask — even if you're vaccinated.' That discouraged a lot of people from getting the vaccine. So I think the message people ought to hear is get the vaccine, stop the spread of the disease. It ought to be voluntary, but you should be encouraged to get the vaccine. And one of the great virtues when you get the vaccine, you can take the damn mask off and return to regular life. That should encourage millions more people to choose to get the vaccine."
