I feel that the masks and the social distancing worked and was needed, for the most part. When someone is sick or coughing, you don’t want to be around them. It was just precautionary and nothing is wrong with that. Hey, we’re still here and alive, so I can’t complain
I work in the medical field…I took care of people dying from covid - if you’ve never seen it, been up close to someone struggling to breathe from covid, and then you are blessed…it caused me to end my hospital job bc of the stress of being over worked, seeing people die regularly. So imo it should still not be downplayed and what was done was based on scrambling to decrease the deaths. masks definitely helped me when in hospital rooms and people were too sick and weak to cover their mouths while coughing and struggling to breathe
My My My…. PEACE & BLESSINGS to you!!! That is all I can say!!!
💕
I’m a respiratory therapist
Working during Covid was a fucking nightmare!!! So many deaths I considered changing careers plenty of times.
Im a respiratory therapist was working in a ny hospital when it hit scariest thing i even seen just one person after another dieing including coworkers that mask was very much needed never got covid and i was literally in people's mouths .
Agreed. The trauma healthcare workers have from the deaths is unspeakable. I just admitted a Covid pneumonia patient today so do what you think is best for you but Covid is still out there for real. Also, I admitted a long Covid patient that can barely breathe right now, so it’s something to be cautious about, still.
RT strong!!!@@labellegene7971
Dr Fauci didn't change up. He said the social distancing and masking guidelines came from the CDC, not him, and that there was no clinical trial that he could point to saying it was needed.
He didn't say those things weren't needed or that it was a mistake, just that the CDC never was able to prove it officially. The vaccine, masking, and those guidelines are what saved us in most doctors' and scientists' opinions.
Right. I'm not mad at Dr. Fauci at all.
Thank you for clarifying because folks seem confused
Thank you because I got something totally different from the hearing than Rox did. I hear what you heard.
We gotta remember, Caitlin and Angel are also part of the first class of college athletes to legally get paid (NIL). Meaning they've already made millions while the WNBA women have made pennies for years. Both Angel and Caitlin each made more than their whole WNBA team salary.
Many of those same women have made millions overseas. With those millions from NIL, they are now making “Pennies” just like many of these women in the league.
Things are better now but my sister in law died from Covid because a ninja with symptoms came to a family party in 2021. Socially distancing worked and could have worked better if people listened.
It was amazing to me how many people just decided that common sense and basic respect weren't necessary during that period. Last year, I had to complete a capstone project for my degree. Since it was a distance course, I was required to come to campus. I was amazed when another student casually mentioned she had covid. Like it wasn't nothing. I have asthma, I have no time to play around. I got away from her fast.
I'm still wearing my mask in close spaces because some folks are just nasty (not covering their mouths etc.....)
Same. Ppl are 🤢.
And we learned that certain groups of people don’t wash their hands or bodies regularly. I’m happy that we were forced/encouraged to sanitize our hands and spaces and wear coverings over our mouths because folks are dirty and nasty.
same and thank God never had COVID or the shot
I agree, when I'm around many people I definitely put a mask on. I take care of an elderly parent and I don't want to even give her a cold or worst the flu because that can lead to Pneumonia which isn't good for the elderly to get.
Same!
Millions of people died from Covid. We did the best we could and the vaccine did help as best it could.
Right! Hindsight is always 20/20. It was a new virus nobody knew how it would pan out.
The USA wasn't the only country that shut down as a response to the high deaths from covid-19. Other countries did distancing, and masks (if they weren't doing that already like the east-Asian countries). It was never all for nothing.
My husband died from COVID and there is nothing that will bring him back. The virus is on some 5.0 ish now and I don’t want 🥷 breathing on me. I’m sorry. I miss him terribly and I won’t let the “gumint “ tell me how to feel about it. Hey 👋🏽 Rox Much love 💯
Very sorry for the loss of your husband.
🙏🙏👑
32:12 As a prior military member, who has had countless vaccines over a 20-something year period, I don't fear vaccines as others do. While I was in the military, I never got the flu and was hardly sick. The time I got sick and understood the importance of vaccines is the year following my military retirement -- when I figured I was going to take a break from vaccines. That was the year I caught swine flu and wasn't at all prepared for it. I was out for weeks. I later found out that I, along with some other coworkers, caught it from someone on the job who figured it would be ok to come to work 24 hours after his fever broke. Coming from NYC and I still have family up there, I don't think people understand the seriousness of Covid and the amount of people who did not make it. I've done research on the coronavirus and the herd immunity theory. The concept of herd Immunity is that a virus will naturally weed itself out via vaccination or people developing immunity from past infections. At the start of COVID, that principle wasn't working at all. So I don't have any issues about being asked to wear masks, wash hands, sanitize or keep a distance from others. At my job, people have started to stay home again unless absolutely necessary because people are catching COVID again. People also need to realize that a lot of those infections that are assumed to be wiped out, like small or chicken pox absolutely do pop up every year, so in my opinion, vaccines are necessary.
Do some research on how Herd Immunity works. Those vaccinations were absolutely necessary in my opinion and people need to stop having a cavalier attitude.
I do believe masking and social distancing helped I worked in the hospital IT WAS NEEDED!!
“Not much to talk about” *40 minute video* 😂
I just recently stopped wearing mask in public & I haven’t had any symptoms or felt sick. It was very difficult for me to take it off but I felt like it was time to proceed forward without the mask. I’m still cautious but not as much as I was before. I got the vaccine because people close to me started catching it so I wanted to be safe.
I rather they be overly precautious than not at all .
Who is mad at Caitlin though? Not any of the black women I know.
I don't think social distancing and masking was for nothing. I believe it kept millions healthy and alive. It also put a sense of caution within us, and that was definitely needed! No complaints here!
You are a fool! Sorry not sorry!
💯
I agree. I believe the masks protected me. I didn't get sick during that time.
I think the government didn't know what to do. So they figured, let's try not to spread it more and keep people home. I don't know.
As someone with an autoimmune disease, wearing masks has helped me (especially when flying).
I work in healthcare and although there wasn’t scientific evidence to support their measures social distancing and mask helped tremendously. My aunt died of Covid and a week later her adult daughter died. Covid was and still is dangerous.
My sister is a nurse who worked the Covid unit and lost so many residents and co-worker. People don’t talk about the impact on people in the medical feel.
You are absolutely right, I worked the Covid unit in a Nursing Home I can not count the amount of people that passed from my Nursing home alone, we lost so many people and I still have nightmares, every day that I got up to go to work working doubles wrapping bodies and to hear people who didn’t see what we saw say it was fake or it’s no reason to wear a mask it irritated me and still does
If it was Kim K's Baby Shower at Louis V. They woulda been singing her praises. I love me some Kash.❤❤❤
I stand with Fauchi
Hey Rox. I started watching girls college ball because of LSU, and had never heard of CC. I think most people are frustrated because she didn’t win a championship and somehow continues to outshine the women who did…and that doesn’t sit well with me at all. She was the best player on a team that didn’t win the title, so yes she can be celebrated, but she’s not the sole reason people are watching..and that’s u fair to the actual winners.
I couldn't have said this better myself.
I definitely started watching because of LSU
And Dawn Staley and South Carolina has brought a lot of attention to Women's Basketball.
I LOL when you were talking about Jada being emotional. My daughter is 24 and the same way. Those GenZ kids are big on respect and speaking their mind. 😂
As a black woman that loves basketball & the WNBA… Angel is very much being attacked.. if you go to all of the mainstream sports websites Angel is being targeted very badly.. CC is very cocky and she says all types of stuff on the court. The black media should take up for Angel & uplift her because everywhere she is being torn apart & CC is being uplifted like she does no wrong
Right, this was a strange take. CC isn’t the great white hope and it’s not like she became amazing out of the blue. Before CC, there was Sabrina, and before than Diana….Folks weren’t interested until the whole hand gesture with Angel, and then she got all the fans who view everything from a white vs black, blue v red lens. The issue is that folks expect everyone to bow down to CC and literally just let her make buckets on some “oops, sorry, didn’t mean to get in your way” “oh heavens, ms Clark, thank you so much for giving my sport relevance.” “Ms. Clark, sorry for trying to block you, please make that three pointer right here” it’s complete bs. All of this controversy smells of racism and sexism. Racism because many of the bandwagon CC fans are the same MAGA crew (peep her boyfriend’s likes on the bird app). Sexism, because this is fucking basketball and the wnba has always been messy and aggressive as hell. People just expect them to act like it’s a tea party because they’re women.
Cc is a phenomenal player and she’ll probs be one of the greats, but the media is doing entirely too much and needs to let things organically play out
@@lightyagami2294 all of this!!!
I remember when we had mask mandates ~2020 we had 0 cases of influenza in my area for the entire flu season- yes COVID was around heavily but it is amazing how much it helped. Fast forward to today, June 2024- we have Flu still going around! 😮 masks do help imo
China was wearing mask first with isolation because the virus started in the lab. I think it was the best precautionary measure at the time. The virus was contagious and affected your respiratory system especially if you had a compromised immune system. Many people died so it was better to be safe than sorry🤷🏾♀️
And they actually mask in public regularly when they have colds.
Japan, Korea North and south they are wearing thier mask. 😷
My cousin’s bm had COVID and didn’t tell anyone and got not only my cousin’s house sick ( her kids, my cousin and his mom, plus my sister when she came over) but my mom’s house sick (my mom has a compromised immune system, my two aunts, and my uncle who was visiting passed away because he got it from her too.) I’ll always wear a mask because people aren’t considerate of others
Instantly, some men put on their cape for Clark, and disparaged black women as jealous. Not one black woman in the league said anything bad about Caitlin. Not one. I'm tired of those ladies getting smeared for every damn thing. Stephen A Smith is the biggest fool. He had no context because he watched a 10 second clip. That's all it took.
I don't know, Charles Barkley may have Stephen A beat. Go back to being off social media Chuck!
As far as Covid, it was always said it was new and they were trying anything to keep it from spreading. Wearing masks helps and people in other Countries have been wearing masks for years if they had a cold and didn't want to spread it to others. Covid hit some differently ie millions died from complications if they had other immune deficiencies. Our Country and many other Countries did the right thing IMO.
I actually don’t mind the water main break talk. You always gave good commentary on real world events such as that!
Caitlyn will be OK. I’m rooting for everybody Black! Shout out to Issa Rae
You can always double back & review The Chi again 😂👀 but I don’t mind you just talking about whatever. This was a chill video & I enjoyed it.
It seems like Kash Doll been big prego and baby showering for like a year and a half now lol.
That's just the back to back pregnancies.😅
Kash doll hair even look that good in person 😍😍😍😍😍
ROXSTARS RUN IT UP!! ✨⭐️🌟💫
It’s Fauci forever over here for selfish reasons. I was able to work from home for 2 years and still have remote days. lol that never would’ve happened with my current position otherwise.
I’m sorry and everyone is allowed their opinion but social distancing and staying home DID help with COVID and the vaccine also helped. I live in NYC and we lost hundreds of people per DAY to COVID. Again, differing opinions are always respected. Talk to someone who worked in healthcare for the last 4 years.
I also live in NYC and worked in a nursing home through Covid (as well as presently) We lost a lot of people, It was devastating, trying to keep the residents separated was hard especially when they didn’t understand why they had to stay in their rooms, Residents were going to the hospital and dying there, I was and still am Traumatized
@@geniabrown1982agree. I truly don’t understand or agree with Rox’s position. My mom was diagnosed with heart disease a year before Covid and we were terrified for her. She had it twice and even with her heart disease, she managed well both times BECAUSE of the vaccine. She’s a retired RN too and understood. I feel for all healthcare staff in ways I never knew I could after Covid.
I'm watching this a month later and like WTF is she talking about!? I'm in the military and we STILL do all the precautions and vaccine. Smfh
@@MrCommonSense00 Because they are good practices. Before Covid in 2020, my job had waves of flu outbreaks and what they needed to do was socially distance, wear masks and stay home if you're sick. And wash your effing hands as well as spray down the door handles. It was gross. These practices saved lives.
Hey Caitlin, don't start none, won't be none!! Sue Bird and Diana Taurassi said Caitlin would not be able to get away with the nonsense at the pro level. Women take sports very seriously; there's no half-stepping. In a lot of ways, it's more fierce than the mens' games..
I hate that Angel has to walk a straight line and any time she shows any emotion she is villainized. CC show emotion and it’s passion. Also, Angel was filed way harder by a black player and it was a non story. Very frustrating 😢
That wasn't a foul, Alyssa Thomas "SUPLEXED" Angel Reese. Someone posted a video contrasting Angel's reaction to this hard foul, to Caitlin's reaction to hard fouls. One said it was apart of the game, and the other whined about it. Guess who was who.
I hate how guys in NBA have been doing exactly the same things with flagrant fouls, talking trash and wanting to prove they're the best. That's not called jealousy when men do it but that's what they say for women. The media just wants to use CC to bring attention to wnba and bash black women while doing it. They highligh a few incidents to make it seem like everyone is attacking cc. Yet, they skip when cc elbowed her first. Nobody cried about Angel's flagrant foul she was the victim of.
What does it for me is when Caitlin talks ish amd then plays the victim role. She antagonizes and then surprised when she gets that same energy back. Theyve been hard on Angel as well. And really, what rookie has an easy time when they first get on? Its a lot of adjustments and womens bball aint no cake walk.
Well none of the government officials including MTG was taking ysap’s remedy of lights and bleach. When ysap had it, he didn’t go to the hospital to get a light treatment either lol
I’m an A’ja Wilson fan and I hate that she isn’t getting the recognition that she deserves and yes this all stems from them waiting for a white savior to come. It’s sad and frustrating for fans and players alike. I do think that Caitlin could speak more to change the narrative, but I don’t think she’s interested in doing that which is a bit questionable.
Ive been a fan of the wnba since i was a teenager and the same way the women play today is the same way they played back then..i think thats the most frustrating thing around the hype of Caitlyn Clark is that black players are getting labeled as jealous and being haters when they're just playing the game as they always did!...and lets be honest no one even knew who Caitlyn was until Angel Reese did that "u can't see me" hand gesture to Caitlyn in that one game and the media ran with it 🤷🏽♀️...i wish the media and newcomers to the game would just enjoy the game without all the drama.
You're correct I know that I didn't know who CC was until the fiasco between her and Angel . I understand what Rox is saying that she was the number 1 seed, and that's why they're shining the spotlight on her. But I feel that the media, and others are helping to blow CC up no matter what.
I think if people are mad at Caitlin it’s because of the Angel Reese situation. Angel took most of the blowback during their interaction, and Caitlin never speaking on the incident nor this new one is a problem. The media is quick to defend her, for doing the same exact thing they do to her. If she would speak and just say when we are on the court this is how we play, but we all have love for each other
Caitlin did speak days after Angel got the full blunt of it. Come to find out. It was Caitlin who did the hand gesture in the face at Angel. Until when Angel return the same gesture after she scored.
Mainstream media attacked Angela. Its bias
Nobody should have to say anything. What's making it worse is black basketball saying oh protect her. BYE ... yall know how the game is played. Stop acting brand new. 😊
The masks worked. I literally didn’t even catch a cold during that time.
I love how Rox will say she ain't got much and it ends up being a 40 minute video 😂
If folks put as much support into the WNBA as they did with the Housewives, rapper baby mamas, and influencers this CC noise wouldn’t be a thing.
You scared me at first Rox, not unpopular opinion, it's a part of the‼️Caitlin has given cheap shots and talks💩 As a rookie, she's gonna get her hat brought to her‼️
Apart from my kids not going to school, I actually enjoyed the corona period. I miss the peace.
Auntie rox the concert was a stone cold groove as you say lol I went on Sunday and it was sold out! I had floor seats and it was such good vibes ♥️
Your Jada impression lol 😂❤… luv yall 😊
I’m okay with the standard that was put in place during Covid, and I have and still getting my vaccinations. Also I recall Dr. Phil saying that kids should have continued to go to school during the pandemic and he was skewered. Ultimately a lot of people died from it and that can be quantified.
Somebody on twitter said Caitlin getting treated like Jackie Robinson 😂
Rox bless us with a Story Time!! That could be an additional video.
Hi Ms Rox I love your wig color it’s beautiful 🤩 hope you have an amazing day.
Hey Rox!!!!!!! and the rest of the roxstars
Now auntie… Caitlyn does not stay quiet lol if anything she answers questions like she’s the victim 😭
And flopping all over the place in the games at the simplest of touches 😂😂😂
CC developed a huge following in her early college years, she’s a shooter.
I still wear a mask in certain places.
What's sending me is they're shoving this Caitlin chick down everyone's throat and acting like she single-handedly saved the sport. It's giving "Christina Columbus." And she plays into it because her yt fragility can't handle not getting praise for something.
She really is that good. If she plays anything like she did in college, we literally will have a Curry type player. And that will be good for the WNBA. They need that type of flavor. And I am a black woman. I only watched the college games when I caught a game by accident. I was like omg, I haven't seen a woman player that type of skillset in ever and got hooked!
Y’all are so ignorant and know nothing about the sport. Just outraged because of skin color. That girl deserves all the praise plus more, black community will stay in shambles because of the mentality
You’re not privy to sports, just nonsensical emotional logic
But Rox I think the reaction is because the expectation when you have a party is that ppl will spend. Ppl might be saying ghetto because the expectation is that you buy her shower gifts there. It is about a sales goal unless you are a VIP
Also, something else to think about. The first warnings of COVID came from a Chinese opthamologist in late 2019 who noticed patients with the same symptoms. The Chinese government tried to suppress doctors speaking out on the coronavirus. That doctor died at the age of 34 from the symptoms of the virus. By the middle of December 2019, several cases of pneumonia like symptoms were connected to the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan China. That market was shut down in January 2020. By late January 2020, the CDC and WHO were involved in tracking the virus. So, the virus started in China in December 2019. By April 2020, the United States numbers of people affected had eclipsed pretty much every other country, including China, where it started. We had close to 600,000 cases. By December 2020 that number was 16 million. China has 4 times our population. So whatever measures the CDC and WHO tried to suggest to keep the pandemic from getting worse should be no issue to people.
Yea, CZcams and the coins have been real fickle 😂 so us other CZcamsrs feel the same!
I agree with you on the WNBA. My husband pretty much said the same thing.
What did you get from Chipotle? My regular order is the large chips and queso with a small side queso.
I agree with you about this new group of WNBA players. I glad they are getting the attention, but some stuff is being blown out of proportion. The stuff that people write about them and put in their comment sections on IG its shocking.
0:01 start, wnba
26:17 kashdoll
Hey Rox!
Hey Rox!!!
I think what’s missing from the Clark conversation is the fact that CC doesn’t speak up or speak out against the racism and unfair treatment that her Black counterparts are facing. Her rabid MAGA fans do nothing but spew hate online and her response has been she doesn’t pay attention to that stuff online. Well Black women have to protect players like Reese because if we don’t no one will.
I can agree with you about the WNBA. I was one of the ones on SM looking at clips and yes they are using the controversy for views and attention.
Not a basketball fan….but when I read the comments…it’s white women making disparaging remarks about Angel….thus black women respond in defense of her. I’ve not come across any comments from black women doing that to Caitlin….again not a basketball fan….my POV is limited.
White women have always been stars in the NBA in the Caitlin Clark way. Miller, Swoopes, Leslie, and Parker were the black WNBA players who connected the most with America as "ladies."
Hey Rox
Heeey, Roxanne. 👋🏾 I refused to take the vaccination. However, my son and his wife’s jobs gave them an ultimatum. Either you get vaccinated or lose your job. I prayed that they were doing the right thing. Our government has been using scare tactics on its citizens for Decades.🤷🏾♀️
Hey Auntie Rox…we love your story times, maybe incorporate that in too for an extra couple videos a month to help
Wow!!! I ended up getting 1 vaccine shot but I remember the world coming for people who didn't get the vaccine not allowing them to go to places. I went to San Francisco before I got the vaccine in 2022 and I wasn't allowed in most establishments without the vaccine card.
The only issue that I have with the WNBA is the lack of fouls called. Somebody is going to get hurt messing around with those refs.
I agree with almost all of the WNBA commentary minus the emotional and hormonal aspect relating to women, humans are emotionals and hormonal everyday life shows that.
I’m an old school Comets fan so none of this is new to me. Bring back the Comets and I’ll come back to watching the WNBA.
so walmart should still be 24/7 😭😭😭 fuaci come on maneeeee
I miss the 24hr Walmart!
Ppl are upset that Caitlyn is being coddled by the media. They did not show that she started it. Many great athletes have been “bullied” their first few seasons. She doesn’t need to be defended as if she’s a delicate flower. No one in sports media was coming to Angel Reese’s defense like that when she got clotheslined in mid air.
I love Kash Doll but the only reason they’re saying it’s ghetto and hood rich is because she’s Black. If it was their favorite (yt, non Black POC, light skin) influencer, WAG, housewife, it would’ve been seen as a cool idea.
Other countries already wear masks when they’re sick or to prevent sickness. They can’t quantify it in numbers. It was just like the Spanish flu. Now we can treat the flu with vaccines and OTC meds.
Rox, I found footage of WNBA players' modeling "game night" outfits dating back to 2022. Nevertheless, I get your point... there's more of that now. And also, the loudest WNBA detractors should look at the level of play, salaries and the crowd sizes for the NBA in their early years. That league matured overtime... WNBA is still in its early years and will grow.
Caitlin does play on another level and her records are amazing. She scored the most points of ANY college student in their career. She broke several records in NCAA Division 1. People who ask why she's celebrated didn't follow her career and are either only focused on her race or are the types to simply be mad at the top player (like those who hated on Kobe, Mike, or Lebron). Her accomplishments shouldn't be diminished.
And did not win a single championship while doing it. There are plenty of record breaking women playing in the WNBA.
@@Dannity1O1 exactly! Just look at the accomplishments of Aja Wilson!
Hey fam
Lololol...... doing that voice.... could only be one person. 🤭🤣🤣🤣
I think a lot of it is gender as well. Unless the players are egregious like Draymond Green, arguments and fights are tolerated in the NBA, NFL, and NHL. (And even then, look how long it took to really discipline him...) I think subconsciously, many see women in sports and think they should be more restrained and not as competitive and passionate as men.
Trueee
I had Covid in 2020 and 2022. Both times were mild thank God. In 2020 I lost my taste and smell and it still hasn’t came back. In 2021 I the Moderna injections and it messed up my rotator cuff. Had to have surgery in 2022. Been of work since 2021 and my disability ended a few months ago. I’ve been frustrated af bc I’ve been trying to go back to work for over and no luck.
34:27 The LIES! 😫 The LIES! (Kandi Burris-Tucker voice)
35:22 😳... Where can I pick up my check? 💅🏾🙄🙄🙄🙄💅🏾
Rox, the #1 overall draft pick in football and basket does not overshadow tried and true professionals. They all have to prove them themselves. One of the NBA's superstar in the finals this year got drafted in 2020. It took Ant 4 years to get the noteriety he has now. The last 3 *crickets*. Now if they want to say they are doing what we know they are doing. IE using the drama to put more eyes on the league. Cool but acting like this some supernova white wonan and she gets a pass because she was the #1 is disingenuous at best. No league works like that.
💚
I only took the first round and I hate I had my daughter get it and begged my mother to out of fear. We haven’t got anymore and don’t plan on it!
Firsttt in da buildingggg
"Women are emotional." 🙄
You are hilarious... I want all my tithes back from the Thurch!!!
Many things can be true at the same time. Caitlyn Clark is a trash talker on the court just like the rest of the women. All rookies get pushed around when they get into the league. Candace Parker got roughed up on the court many times her rookie season. Caitlyn needs to get her weight up so she won’t get pushed around so much. She is little compared to the other women. And I’m sure she will. She and Angel have been fantastic for the league, but they are not going to get special treatment on the court. Hopefully, it will all come together because this is a pivotal time and can help the league reach a broader audience.
HEY ROX AND ROXSTARS !! Rox, I absolutely LOVE you, but I'm not sure about the wig. You've had so many more that were absolutely beautiful. Just my stupid opinion.
