Jamie Lee Curtis is mostly liked and admired for her social media sharing but one of her recent posts has got the trolls up in arms. Lots of people.
With the latest increase in COVID cases of various varieties, the mask mandate may re-emerge but people want Curtis to stop spreading fear.

Curtis just shared a picture of himself wearing a cloth, COVID mask, in a stark black and white photo that seemed to spark quite an emotional response in many of his followers and fans. While he tries to lighten the deal by donning a Mike Myers mask, the joke doesn’t change, even if some feel he’s doing the right thing.
Curtis, 64, captioned the image, “And we BAAAAACCCCKKKK. No, not Michael Myers but the mask will be. COVID is increasing. A LOT of friends right now are really sick. BE INTERESTED. WEAR A MASK if necessary or even if you feel unwell and are in public.”
Many of her fans stood right by her side, applauding her for the message and sharing their own POV:
“I never stopped wearing a mask. Not once. My family suffers from immune disorders and I love them more than anything.”
“I think it’s really rude and special for someone to actively choose not to wear a mask. I care about my family. I care about my life. It’s their choice to be stupid and take risks, it’s not mine.”
“I have an autoimmune disease, and have siblings who had transplants. So I’m not going to risk their health or mine. You can believe in masks or not, personally, I don’t care. I agree with Jamie Lee Curtis.”
Not Everyone Agrees With Academy Award Winners

While there are many who believe in the mask mandate, keeping themselves and others safe, many others are against it, for various reasons.
Wrote one social media user, “Get your fitness and eat healthy people! Get some vitamin D from the sun and take other vitamins that our body needs. Let’s stop normalizing poor health and obesity. Masks are the least we worry about when it comes to our “HEALTH”.
For others, this is more of a political issue as one accused Jamie Lee Curtis:
“I wonder how much the Biden administration is paying you to scare people again. Didn’t wear it last time and won’t wear it this time! And I certainly don’t take injections or freeze boosters!! Wake up, man!!”
Another chimed in, in a similar vein, slamming the Oscar winner, “You have a little bit of fear that spreads fear. It’s disgusting, don’t obey people don’t let the government control you, please.”
Jamie Lee Curtis Just Follows The Mask’s Mandate

Of course, it’s not as if Jamie Lee Curtis shot off the top of her head and just wanted to wear a mask. The mandate is back, and we’re talking about the film industry, amid an increase in COVID cases in LA, Lionsgate has reinstated the mask mandate for nearly half of the company’s employees at its Santa Monica headquarters. For now, this is only for employees on the 3rd and 5th floor of the office and in response to some employees who have tested positive.
According to various media reports, COVID cases have increased over the past few weeks. Although the spread is still under control and has not increased as quickly as in previous years, with the new variant the authorities should be concerned.
For now, the EG.5 variant (dubbed Eris) is estimated to be the “dominant” strain in the U.S. Authorities are also closely monitoring FL.1.5.1 (dubbed Fornax) and then another highly mutated virus strain called BA .2.86, this one is nicknamed “Pirola.”
While many disagree with Jamie Lee Curtis’ stance, others feel she was right in taking a stand early on. Nipping the spread of the disease in the bud may be the only way to deal with it. While human immunity to COVID may have improved, with vaccinations as well, eventually new mutations could pose new risks. So here’s Jamie Lee Curtis doing what must be done!
