Face masks

[WhyDoILikeChickens]

Everyone seems to think they are SJW but those people are just Karens and Dylans. Tbh, I think most people are honest, decent and all around good. I think everyone wants to be safe and no one wants to get sick. Heck, I was a big lover of this whole thing when it started: no one was standing too close to me, people were covering their nasal passages and there was way less traffic. But dont you think this has gone on too long? It's not going anywhere and they didn't do this when Spanish flu happened. Sure most people would say or argue that the infrastructure wasnt there for us to do what we've done thus far back then; but it wasnt really there for us now. We've had to adapt and change all the while being told that we are noble. We're all in this together....

...and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Same here.... I wore a mask, didn't leave the house unless necessary, kept distance etc. etc. Then we learned the death rate is similar to flu. Then they said dont wear a mask but now you must. Then some guy was shot in the head but they said it was covid. Then they condemned hydroxychloraquin because some lady poisoned her husband with fish tank cleaner even though an epidemiologist doctor in france treated 2k people with zero deaths and instantly I knew it went political. President approval ratings were going up and they would rather people die than give him credit. Fauci started pushing remdesivir (not to mention his name is on patent) and not crediting hydroxychloraquin and I lost all faith in him.
Then rioting is ok but church isn't....... I'm done playing the game!
From then on I play my own game, not theirs!

The mask needs to fit properly. Unless using a properly fitted respirator, it makes sense that wearing one protects others more than the wearer because air comes in around the mask that you breath in. but coughs, sneezes, aerosols from talking and breathing are mostly trapped on the interior of the mask.

There were two hair stylists in Springfield, MO who both tested positive for covid 19. Since the salon reopened, they had 140 clients between them. When contact tracing was done, surprisingly none of the clients tested positive. They surmised that was because all employees and customers wore masks.

For those who like to follow up the phrase "black lives matter" with the phrase, "all lives matter" - then put on a damn mask.

I thought about taking all the masks Ive made and writing f*** you on them. I'll comply and put one on if it makes other people FEEL safe but I'm not happy removing my sense of freedom. And then make sure I say hello to every small child in the store

you wear a mask to keep your own germs contained. When everyone wears a mask, it helps keep the spread down

First I appreciate your communication and respect your opinion.
The point is covid is here whether we like it or not. The goal is to achieve herd immunity. If we stop spread we stop immunity. Just be even longer we deal with this and more people suffer.
Sweden did nothing, did not violate the rights of their people and they are best off.
New York studied 1000 hospital cases. Of those 2/3 were strict isolated and were mask. Lockdowns and masks dont work anyway, just seems to make things worse.

In addition to this point, apparently you do not get the virus twice. Anyone remember chicken pox parties?
