If their masks work, surely they wouldn’t have to care if we don’t wear ours? Maybe they should just wear two masks to compensate?

If everyone had your perspective no one would wear a mask.

Again if there’s a resurgence in CV19 and it’s shown to be in areas where’s masks are not prevalent... say hello to president xiden & all y’all anti-mask motherfuckers will be the reason why. Literally school choice, immigration reform, China policy, abortion - all down the drain because people like you glamorize not wearing a mask. We’re so close to permanently changing America and you guys choose masks as your hill to die on.

Personally I wear a mask and would rather not interact with people not wearing masks because countries like Taiwan credit their CV19 success to masks. They’ve also done tests on rats where they saw a way lower rate of CV19 transmission. I would like the government to be able to better report on mask effectiveness but they’re too busy dealing with the post office. I know people on this forum seem to equate masks with government control but it’ll be worse under Biden, he wants everyone to wear a mask everywhere and if CV19 numbers jump up again, I fear his reality

Again I’m interpreting your post that masks are your hill to die on.

Florida just had 10k diagnoses a day - how did this happen? I believe the mechanism was squeezing a large amount of people into a small region then introducing some coughers or who knows if the same mechanism is taken by coughers as well as talkers, who knows? By the primary mechanism this disease spreads seems to be through droplets while you talk, cough, sneeze - to say masks do nothing to inhibit his is misguided at best. If you put a layer between an easily transmissible virus and it’s surrounding the virus will be inhibited... surprise fucking surprise.

Again if people on this forum choose to spread misinformation and look at the mechanism and disregard it, we deserve emperor Xiden but the mechanism to me, makes crystal clear sense & hence masks make sense.

Emperor Xiden will make sure of this and once we’re through 6 months of everyone wearing a mask, he’ll take credit for the sky high recovery as well and we’ll have 2 terms of Xiden while the left does all it can to scapegoat Trump with CV19.

I fail to see the issue. Remember, the excuse for the lockdown starting was to slow the spread and determine what treatments could work, not to eradicate disease entirely. Masks are marginally effective, at best, and we know HCQ+zinc is effective, so it’s beyond time we open up

How is determining that masks are effective not a successful mitigation strategy?

Y’all gonna get Xiden elected so keep doing what y’all are doing

Fear is the mind killer

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will let it pass over me and through me. And when it has passed I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where it has gone, there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Last I checked no one is holding large gatherings (outside of George floyds funeral) of any kind so I agree fear is the killer and the only way to fight fear is by containing the virus. Get the economy back up to 💯

You’re not on Reddit. Quit being a fag. Masks do NOTHING.

Hoaxrona is just an exaggerated flu and more people die to car accidents than to the virus. Even if it's real (if George Soros managed to craft a good enough virus in his China laboratories), why try to prevent it? Should we forbid all cars and close down all roads because of car crashes?

Ummm 1% death rate and crazy amount of transmissibility - that’s not nothing. People cannot good large scale gatherings so spreading misinformation (like you’re doing) does nothing for anyone.

See my post history and the animal study as well as the Taiwan references for links.

How does "it's not to keep you from getting infected, it's to keep you from infecting people" even work? Either it's a filter or it isn't.

Umm if I have the virus and I’m in the incubation period, it’s suspected that’s when viral load is highest, meaning infection is then highest.

You can transmit the virus by talking, coughing to sneezing. Pretty simple to understand you put up a barrier and less of the virus transmits.

There is NO evidence that before you develop symptoms you have your highest viral load. That doesn't begin to correspond to any data.

Where do you get your disinformation?

I read something before but seems like this link negates what I said also:

If they're that worried they should lock themselves in isolation and hopefully off themselves once they go mad.

Some idiots are spreading an admittedly cute graphic claiming that 1.5% chance of transmission if both people wear masks, with 70% if only one mask is worn and not by the sick person.

SO:

no mention of how long these two people were in contact, or what proximity.

no mention of what type of mask, while the best studies show that respirators work better than medical masks, and cloth masks are worse yet.

So we have to prove to their satisfaction that the claim is BOGUS. While simultaneously admitting that if masks were really that effective, of course we'd be on board. That is one heckuva claim, and of course the burden of proof is on the one making the positive claim. Meanwhile my Governor has the audacity to claim he's "following the data" with his mask mandate. He is not!
