You just cant help yourself can you?



Open suckhole, insert cleat...

And no freakin trees! Who in their right mind would want to live where the trees look like scruffy bushes!

I like her too.

No it is not. There are several other factors at play. The rule of the odds says that the more pathogen that is deposited into the environment, the more likely likely you are to encounter it. Then, recent research is showing that the viral load has much to do with the severity of the illness. Add a face covering to the would be recipient, and a more of the pathogen can be trapped before making it into their body.

Okay Rachel.

Correct in the practical sense.

The mask that I see most people wearing, the ear loop mask that’s white on one side and blue on the other. My employer buys them by the case and mandates there use to gain entry into the building despite the box they come in saying “Warning this is an ear loop mask it is not a respirator. And It Will Not Provide Any Protection Against COVID-19 Or Any Other Virus.”

The mask say right on the box that they ship in that they do not protect against Covid or any other virus. Even if you were to believe that the mask could filter out the virus which it can’t it would still require perfect mask procedures and hygiene to be effective.

People using the same mask for a day or more at a time without washing it, kids with runny noses and mask on, people touching the contaminated, warm, humid, human breath covered mask with bare hands and then touching anything else, people sitting those mask on dashboards, in purses ect. resulting cross contamination of anything else. When you factor all of that in and that the mask can’t stop micro germs to begin with mask are absolutely worthless short of a full on proper biohazard gear and then following the proper procedures

Masks or Face coverings are held up by some as being a panacea. They are not. They are a tool in what should be a cocktail of protective measures.

That's the kind of substantive response I'd expect from most here. Just think of all of the mental gymnastics you'd have to do to explain this away! https://www.npr.org/2020/11/20/9368...nors-and-very-different-covid-19-results

Yeah....like not wearing a seat belt but making sure your windows are rolled up in case of a rollover.

Another quality response from the brain dead masses!

Hey mask man, if me not wearing a mask means I catch a very mild illness (covid 19) then so be it.

It's not Ebola and it's not killing even 1% of the people that have it.

Grow a pair.

He’s been repeatedly told that since George Floyd.

yep

I typically peel my mask off when I walk outside. Every now and then I leave it on. I have noticed that it gets moist on the inside. Are you telling me that science says that none of that moisture would contain pathogens if I was positive?

Hahaha!

Any difference in demographics there Paul?

If you think a see through piece of fabric that is constantly messed with all the time is effective PPE...

.well....turn NPR back on.

You know saint floyd had covid....must've been one of those "super spreaders" CNN keeps whining about...

Jim, be nice.

Paul has an estrogen issue.

You remain severely contextually challenged. I have not rendered a value judgement on what any individual or government representative should do. I am speaking only to the facts. The facts are that face coverings can stop some of the pathogen from leaving a person and entering the environment.

What demographic explains the stark difference between the two states?

And the wheel-spinnin’ goes on.

Here’s the Covid numbers for SD percentage wise, inflated they may be.
Less than 1% of the population has tested positive.
Less than 00.10% of the population has died from it.
Approximately 50% of the deaths have been nursing home residents.
