Ok, so we look for asymmetric deals in life, to reap a high reward for taking a low risk, and/or to find great value for a small outlay.
Can we agree that wearing a mask is a low cost, low risk activity that can help slow transmission of a very high risk, and very high cost virus?
Is that an asymmetric deal?
Please discuss.
No. I for one cannot agree with your primise.
The size of the Covid19 virus bacteria is .1 micron.
The masks most people are being asked to wear only filter down to 20 microns.
Do the math. It is like trying to filter out mosquitoes with a chain length fence.
Surgical masks do not filter down to .1 micron. One would need to use a CDC Type 4 (I believe that is correct) aspirator to filter out the virus. VERY EXPENSIVE!
Masks only give the appearance that one is taking preventive measures. There are people walking around with antibodies to the virus. I know of a least a dozen people who have been exposed--but never came down with it.
EMORY University in Atlanta is very close to vaccine. So are the Israelis.
Wait until flu season is in full swing. If masks are effective, flu cases should be down dramatically.
That squeaky little fuque said last week people now should wear goggles. Why not put a damn yellow V on everyone who was stupid enough to get his rushed, untested, chemical cocktail? Every one without the mark can't enter a public space. He and gates need deportation to mars.

A virus bacteria? No wonder there's so much paranoia. That's some serious chit.
I work in a city with close to 9,000 homeless in it. One has died from the covid. I do not know if he had any comorbidities, but something tells me if you are an addict living on the street in this festering human sewer then your body is a cocktail of disease and drugs.
The other 8,999 or so seem to die more of overdoses and fights over drugs than of covid. Just sayin'.

F'in A!
Been wondering how the homeless seem so "immune" to it.
Glad you checked in Tracy......hows things in Weirdsville?
Holy chit a virus bacteria! OMG that's a scariest mofo thing I ever ever ever (which I never never never) heard of.

Jeans/undies at the exhaust pipe...the fart has to breach that, then maneuver north and through the face mask.
That was a rhetorical question. But, I think you need whitey tighties to get the same level of protection as a mask. Preferably JC Penney's brand. If it's just boxers then you only have the protection of a bandana.

This argument is, frankly, stupid as hell. And it's been said here over, and over.
The point of a mask is to keep "spittle" and large droplets, and snot and chit from flying out of the mouth, while talking. The point is not to capture perfectly virgin .1 micron viruses out of their mouth while talking. It is a laughably stupid assertion.
Read that again: The point is not to capture a single, minuscule rouge virus someone is exhaling.
Get a fuggin' clue.
I know it is political, and everyone has an opinion, but JFC. Believe in masks or not, but at least judge them based on the intended benefits.

I gave up on the "we", when "I" have to pay for abortions which: A. Isnt law, passed by Congress and signed by the Executive B. Violates my 1st Amendment rights. Religious if it helps one reconnoiter.
Asymmetric deal: Is pretty much summed up in the Constitution, which some choose to either forget or warp. There are no asymmetrical deals, but God given, inalienable rights.. Wear a mask for 80 years. Dont wear one. The government favoring one over the other is ILLEGAL.
Its odd we have declared freedom of choice decreed from un-Constitutional means, its between us and our doctor, unless its to promote and fund a government system or have mask wearers and their government progeny run scorn on those beyond their jurisdiction.
Socialism and communism is, has been and always be a lie and is always an affront to the only law, the U.S. Constitution.
There is no "asymmetric deal" in the Constitution or Bill of Rights. Stay inside and hide or mind your own business and leave others as free people to do as they see fit, without being negligent or acting in a pre-meditated fashion.
But my words are wasted.
I literally have nothing in common with close to 50% of the citizens here or those who arent. If you need to ask "why" I dont agree on the "asymmetrical deal", you are either a commie or too young to make "my" 50%. You are my enemy and I will do whatever Providence allows me to destroy you....

Just trying to survive the madness of the past four months. Get used to big city police departments making haste slowly. The SJWs want our heads. They also want the cops out of their way so they can do what they want with little repercussion. Eight more months if I am lucky.
