Since we have no statewide mask mandate, I wrote this to the board of county commissioners today. "As Texas and Mississippi have expired their mask mandates and the fact that Florida has never had a Statewide mask mandate; I request that Pinellas County consider the immediate expiration of the current countywide mask mandate for many reasons some I've listed below:
- There should be Bio-Hazard waste facilities setup at every store, shop and restaurant if the virus is infectious; so that the infectious mask can be discarded and properly disposed of. Without proper disposal the virus is just carried from place on the infectious masks.
- You can find masks littered all over Pinellas County. You find them in parking lots, at the gas pump, even at the local boat ramp, destroying our beautiful waterways. That seems like a PANDEMIC of infectious masks, is our sealife now infected? Have there been any studies on this?
- The science does not support the mask mandate. Frankly it is silly to assume that I'll get the virus entering a restaurant, but won't get it when I sit down. The masks are doing more harm to people's lives then the virus. People are reusing these things, breathing in the exhaled air for many hours causing other health issues.
- There are no standards for the mask mandate. People wear different masks, made by different companys, made from different materials. Has any testing been performed to test the effectiveness of these different masks? People wear the mask under their nose, under their chin, and that is ok as long as they have 1 on. Please consider the immediate termination of the mask mandate in effect in Pinellas County"
This control has to stop!
The problem here, is now you've given them the motivation to actually install a standard. Now they very well might say "you know what, yeah, the masks have to be N95, they'll come up with expirable ones that change color or something to alert when it's been used before so you catch people reusing masks and not using a new one, and by the way you now have to wear 4 at a time, because Fauci"
Be careful how you word stuff like this so you don't give them ideas.
NOTE, OF COURSE, AS WELL
That EVERY mask PACKAGE contains a warning that the product CANNOT PROTECT either the wearer or anyone else from COVID or ANY OTHER airborne VIRUS.
it says right on the package... The Product herein is a worthless FIGLEAF.
Like using a screen door for an umbrella. You WILL get VERY WET.
"bUt mUh n95!"
