I see folks all the time handling door handles, gas pump handles, you name it. Their hands go to their masks to either put em on or take em off a dozen times in between. Just what are the purpose of masks again?
This covid thing is the worst the American people have EVER peen played! I is not a deadly as many common afflictions out there and I for one am sick of all the pandering to a disease that has an over 99% survival rate!

Studies show that it’s much more dangerous in states with democrat governors than states with republican governors! Who’d have ever thought that? Especially during an election year! Wow, what are the odds? 7mm
In the beginning, Fauci told us over and over that a mask would not do any good. Only medical people need them.
At this point, I think millionaires are being made on mask sales, so gotta keep it rolling.
the way I remember it, Fauci was asking people to not hoard the N-95 masks, because medical folks needed them to go to work.
Flagstaff hospital was short on masks, gloves and gowns because they were wearing them for every patient and changing them for every patient.
recall a few people loaded up on masks and hand sanitizers to make a bundle. (like TP hoarding)
We are in a hot spot (Northern Arizona), and we are a shopping town for the Navajo Nation where they have a lot of it. So i wear a cloth mask when I am in a store, and I wash my hands when I leave the store and when I get home.
wearing the mask hasn't killed me yet, nor has the corona. the mask does make my big ears look bigger.
It bugs the hell out of me to have to put one on because of a democrat governors mandate. An awful lot of businesses are ignoring the mandate, so those are the ones that I patronize. If I gotta go in a store who’s following the mandate for something, I wear it through the door and usually stuff it in my pocket once I’m in. Haven’t run into any mask Nazis yet, but have run into several people who feel we’re being played and that it’s a political weapon. Two guys told me it’s Gods judgment on this country, to which I replied that we kill over 100 thousand unborn babies everyday. When God unleashes His judgment, there won’t be any mistake about it. By the way, Pennsylvania has a new definition of the term “Governor’s Mandate”. It’s when Tom Wolfe takes his health secretary out for dinner! 7mm
I've reminded a few Karens (male and female) that "social distancing" is just exactly the length of my arm, with a cane in my hand. As long as they stay out of reach of the pound of bullet casting alloy poured into the tip, and speak politely, neither one of us will have a problem.

You do realize the purpose of a mask is to keep the wearer of said mask from spreading the Kung fly, not from getting it? That's pretty common knowledge. I'm betting 95% of mask wearers think it prevents them from contracting Covid19.

Red State blog claim Calif governor Gavin Newsom signed a billion, yes billion, dollar deal with the Chinese for masks. Wonder if there was a signing bonus?
...the way I remember it, Fauci was asking people to not hoard the N-95 masks, because medical folks needed them to go to work.
I'm sure the MSM would like to spin it that way.
Beginning in February, Fauci stated quite clearly the only masks that might be effective are N95's and there was no need to wear any other mask unless you had symptoms. If you had symptoms, a cloth covering may help prevent the broadcasting of a cough or sneeze or silva while talking, but not to wear an N95. Later Fauci advised that you could wear a cloth face covering if it made you feel better, but strongly recommended against wearing a formal surgical mask—as those should be reserved for frontliners. Finally, by late June Fauci's position on masks eroded to the point where he declared that everyone should wear a mask.
Fauci's explanations justifying lying to the public as a means of preserving supplies for medical workers is a disgusting example of paternalism and where he lost any respect I had left for him.
I can't believe someone hasn't strung together a montage of Fauci's statements on masks over the last six months. Then again, there'd be no place to post it, because they'd just take it down.

In addition to that, proper air filtration will reduce the risk of transmission or airborne viruses, but MERV 13 media has now been diverted to masks, that are as worthless as the politicians who force their usage. The CDC says masks don't work, upgrade to MERV 13 or higher if your system allows. Then .gov diverts the media so you can't upgrade. But hell, it looks good and shows that the bloodsucking, worthless bastard local politicians care.
The idiot homeless around here are wearing masks.... They smoke meth and live under a bridge no problem, but a fake pandemic is cause for alarm. All of a sudden they're highly concerned for their health. Give me a [bleep] break.
Last I heard AIDS/HIV infection is FATAL. Why you reckon there hasn't been a huge effort to identify and isolate the people that carry this contagion? I understand it isn't yet considered airborne but I would bet that almost everyone that's been exposed and infected were not aware it was happening. Here you have a disease that is 100% percent fatal vs one that is .04 %. Also what about the Hepatitis C that is terribly debilitating and easily spread? I have a 70+ year old neighbor lady with CV-19 and she has received 2 calls from the state this week to be sure she knows to stay under house arrest. It would homophobic or negro phobic to insist that AIDS and Hep C infected be put under house arrest despite the fact that millions have been infected.
One thing is fact, the mask cannot stop a fart.....How in the hell could it stop a virus?
Lol, you're not supposed to were it on your fuggin' ass!!
I ass u me you are joking. Most people's butts are double masked and the gas still comes right over and penetrates your mask. Viruses are kind of small and sneaky.
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'.

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.

In 2020, HIV infection is a personal choice. NO ONE accidentally contracts HIV. You have to go OUT OF YOUR WAY, intentionally, to get infected. Shoot up, not practice safe sex.....
And even if you are stupid enough to contract it, it has not been 100% fatal for years now. Most people with treatment live normal lives. Some have even been "cured." Heard of Magic Johnson???

I like the chain link fence. The everyday cloth mask is like using a chain link fence to block the blast and shot from a 12 gauge shotgun. N95 mask is better but it will not block the a virus either. And your eyes lead straight to the sinus cavity.

Yes, because viruses float around in their own little .1 micron world, unattached to anything... Not on droplets, not on spittle...

Covidiocy (n) a mental aberration composed of paranoia, superstition, and blind obedience to a manufactured medical emergency. Victims are known as Covidiots and can be told by their compulsive hand washing, mask wearing, and avoidance of all human contact.
Tired of the discussion/debate regarding masks work/don't work. Do as you please, just STFU if a business chooses to require masks that's their perogative just take your business elsewhere and stay off the internet biotching about it.

You fancy yourself a smart guy. Answer this question. Simple YES or NO.
My entire point was that the assertion that masks are useless because they don't filter a single, perfectly airborne virus is STUPID.
The point of a mask is to keep larger droplets from going airborne.
Agree, or disagree?
Do you put on rubber gloves before you wipe your azz? If not, why not, when it has been proven the virus is shed through human feces, and not airborne.
You should be telling people to wear rubber gloves instead of a mask, Mr. Karen, if you actually wanted to accomplish something.
Fact is keeping your hands away from your face protects you and others from contracting the China virus. And wearing a mask is counterproductive at keeping your hands away from your face. Some people are just to stupid to think for themselves. Wearing a mask might be like wearing a filter and it catches the China virus in the air. Then the dumbasses that wear a mask spread the virus around under the guise of prevention.
Let’s see….a sail on a Sailboat catches what, wind…..
A mask on a human’s face catches what, airborne particles / droplets…..
Why would any intelligent person wear something on their face that “concentrates” and collects droplets floating around in the air, if a virus was in fact “airborne”?......
Checkmate……
And again, 14 RCT's (Random Control Test), Gold Standard in medical field, has proven over the course of many decades, that mask provide zero protection from viruses….
They didn’t for the Spanish Flu, and they aren’t for Covid-19, and the math (numbers) and physics are proving out the masks are actually helping to spread it when forced on a community.

You are basing your insults on the premise that everyone that gets a little "spittle" on them is getting the virus. That is a laughably stupid assertion.
There are hundreds, if not thousands, if not 10s of thousands of people who have been in contact with people who have been infected with the virus and have NOT come down with it.

I wear cotton underwear and cotton pants; you have a cotton cloth over your face; I fart, can you smell it? If it won't stop a body emission odor, why would you think it'd stop a microorganism???
How about 1: Wash your hands THEN wash your face. Stay home if you are sick.

I agree with this. If a business owners requires you to wear a T shirt that says "re-elect the bastard", the business owner has that right and you either comply or take your business elsewhere. Government officials and elected officials do not have the authority to require you wear a mask so not wearing a mask is a form of protest which is protected. No?
Every business or anywhere I've been lately where face masks are SUPPOSED to be mandatory, a good half or more of both customers and employees either wore theirs off their nose, off nose AND mouth or just hanging loose down on their necks and all the rest wore no masks at all.
Nope, I'm not too worried about Covid coming to my house, I'm sure I'll survive it if it does.
I do work work with some good people with underlying health conditions that would likely be in a world of hurt if they catch it. If practicing good hygiene and wearing a mask when asked helps reduce the chances they may catch it, then I'm in. Are masks 100% effective in preventing C-19 transmission? Nope! Current thinking is that wearing masks may reduce the transmission rate by 65% depending on the type of mask and how it's worn.
Refusing to where a mask in places that ask or require it is just as much of "virture singling" as wearing a mask everywhere one goes.

Refusing to where a mask in places that ask or require it is just as much of "virture singling" as wearing a mask everywhere one goes.
Current thinking doesn't match with the reality of actual testing. You need look no further that the CDC's own findings after reviewing multiple tests. I'd be embarrassed if I had fallen for all the bullshiite. Ashamed and embarrassed. Here's your pull quote: "In our systematic review, we identified 10 RCTs that reported estimates of the effectiveness of face masks in reducing laboratory-confirmed influenza virus infections in the community from literature published during 1946–July 27, 2018. In pooled analysis, we found no significant reduction in influenza transmission with the use of face masks."

Yeah, but it's the right kind of virtue... Liberty.
Yes, the idea of the silly masks is to stop you from spitting on everyone, not to stop individual virus particles from blowing through the mask. It's still BS. (and I'm sure a large portion of dutiful mask wearers still really think that the mask is to help keep THEM from getting the Wuhu flu... as evidenced by all the nuts I see walking down the sidewalk, or driving their cars ALONE and wearing their stupid damn mask.)
There are places where no one is wearing a mask (even when "ordered" to by their royal gubernor), and yet, people aren't dropping like flies. What gives? I mean, Sweden should be pretty much wiped out by now, right?
See, that's what I prefer is science and figuring out what works and what doesn't. With that said, what does the science say specifically say about C-19 and masks?
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'.
yep really weird it has not spread in the crowded unhealthy homeless populations in San Fran, LA, Seattle, Portland or the slums in Asia

LOL
Has your life been so void of experience that you need to be told that?

There are two primary methods of transmission, they said. The first is via droplets a carrier expels, which are about one-third the size of a human hair but still large enough that we can see them. Masks create an effective barrier against droplets.

Transmission by aerosol particles
The second major transmission method is via the aerosol particles we expel when we talk. Those are about 1/100th the size of a human hair and are more difficult to defend against. Social distancing and staying outdoors, where there is more air flow, are helpful, Blumberg and Ristenpart said.
“Studies in laboratory conditions now show the virus stays alive in aerosol form with a half-life on the scale of hours. It persists in the air,” Ristenpart said. “That’s why you want to be outdoors for any social situations if possible. The good air flow will disperse the virus. If you are indoors, think about opening the windows. You want as much fresh air as possible.”

It says that COVID is a magical virus that behaves and is transmitted differently than anything known to man. Even masks that are totally useless against other viruses of it's size and type somehow miraculously stop COVID. LMFAO

The mask(whatever type) doesn't matter if it doesn't have an airtight seal around the entire airway, and have a filter system that stops all particles down to .1 microns(?) both coming and going. Surgical masks, n95 masks, cloth masks, your favorite face diaper can't do that. So unless you properly use a true, certified airtight face sealing respirator whether it be industrial or military, and protect your eyes from ingress, and sterilize everything every time you take it off/put it on before entering/leaving your home/office school etc. etc. ad nausium you ain't gonna stop jack.....and that's science.
This covid thing is the worst the American people have EVER peen played! I is not a deadly as many common afflictions out there and I for one am sick of all the pandering to a disease that has an over 99% survival rate!
Studies show that it’s much more dangerous in states with democrat governors than states with republican governors! Who’d have ever thought that? Especially during an election year! Wow, what are the odds? 7mm
If you haven't done the analysis from this angle, You will also find that it's much more dangerous in swing states like FL and TX.
