No Vac or Mask for Oscar

In Los Angeles, all moviegoers MUST be fully vaccinated and masked before being admitted to a cinema to enjoy a movie... yet those mandates do not apply for attending the Academy Awards.

Yes, the mandates have been waived for the Hollywood hotshots and the glitterati will be free to congregate vac and mask free during the Oscar presentations.

The Academy confirmed that attendees to the big show would not be required to show vac status nor wear masks.

No need for masks or vacs at Oscars

With standing-room-only at the event, tinsel-town elites see no reason why they should be burdened by trivial mandates reserved for the common folk. 

So, an unvaccinated person in L.A. cannot go to a cinema, gym, restaurant, or bar without showing proof of being fully vac'ed. It occurs to me that of all the public places one can visit a cinema is the safest!  There is distance separation, the seats are sanitized, and there is very little co-mingling of patrons. Not so at the Oscars, where thousands will be packed into the Dolby Theater and I guarantee you the only people wearing masks will be the paparazzi.

What about masks you say? Well, it seems that masks will not be required at the Oscars either. CA State officials announced this week that the indoor mask mandate will be lifted on February 16th. The Oscars will be aired on March 27th.

So at cinemas, it's No Pokey No Showy. For Oscars: No Pokey Who Cares - let the games begin.

No need for the glitterati to be vac'ed of masked
