Covid Vaccine Stupidity, Surgeon General Edition

The Surgeon General, his wife, and his unvaccinated 4 year old daughter, are all positive for Covid-19 infection.
Clearly Vice Admiral Murthy was not following his own rules for Covid protection: Masking at all times because of Omicron. Or that his own rules are useless against Omicron. Here are only two possibilities.
Clearly vaccines are ineffective against the new variants. And it is taking forever to deploy the variant-specific vaccine/boosters. Unless you are 55 years old or older, there is no point in taking a booster, assuming you had the vaccines in the first place. If you are older, maybe you should take the booster, if you accept the long-term effect trade-offs.
Get a good silicone sealing reusable mask, like this one here. An Amazon search for "Silicone Mask" or other search engines will give you good results. N-95 and other similar disposable masks are available these days, but they do not seal as well as the silicone masks do. And you can cut up an N-95 disposable into several filters for a silicone mask. Do it. Do not accept useless paper or cloth masks. They work as well as vaccines against Omicron, which is not at all.
