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.

Absolutely the numbers may be inflated

Yes having the virus and not changing any behaviour is tantamount to death. If you have the virus and continue to go see nona, you’re in the same boat as women who go through their 21st abortion

I don’t understand your last point. There is a hypothesized mechanism for travel, by deploying a barrier between you and your surrounding, it makes sense this would inhibit droplets from spreading

You have major flaws in your reasoning:

  1. having the virus does not = death. Dr Zelenko refused to medicate most people he saw, knowing they'd be fine. His criteria were over 60, or comorbidities.

  2. You're saying masks work by stopping droplets when you speak. Except people remove their mask to speak, because nobody can understand what you're saying through a mask.

  3. Next you're saying that masks work by stopping droplets when you cough or sneeze. Can you think of any other way of doing that?

  1. If you have CV19, your close contacts are more likely to have CV19

I know you don’t understand statistics but if you know 100 people, 1 random person will die from CV19 in the next month. Are you okay with this risk? Are you okay knowing that if you hang around with more old people, maybe 1 turns into 20...

  1. You remove your mask when you talk because because you don’t enunciate words properly. To speak clearer maybe slowdown the tempo of your voice

  2. Masks

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

++ I like that you are pressing people on this. They need to be pressed. TDW have blowhards who in reality don't want to be that girl/guy who has the cops called on them. Yet they sense that COVID aerosol threat is subject to hysteria.

If Trump wins expect it to be a bitter fight down to one COVID-exclusive death a month. If Biden wins expect to see half the people not wearing masks the day after the election and NO masks worn within a week. With plenty of nervous sideways glances and no words uttered.

COVID itself is not the 'hill' for the US economy and millennia of human custom to die on. Fully half of the early wave deaths in our affluent country are attributable to standard hands-on pneumonia treatments being 'ruled out' in crisis and people put quickly onto killer vents by (sorry to say, cowardly) healthcare practitioners. And patients lying abed in nursing homes essentially left untreated by hospital and untouched by terrified staff.

Since April at least half of the remaining deaths are due to the 'standard treatment' being no early treatment. people told by doctors at first symptom to "return home and self-isolate" and then some of them arrive at the hospital on day 7 with hypoxia when viral replication has already occurred.

Viral replication that HCQ+ZINC+AZM if given early would have knocked out by day 5. The US has fallen into a deadly affluence+TDS trap.

But I have been telling people for months now that based on ONE criterion of this virus alone -- that it is as transmissible as the common cold -- everyone needs to expect to get it and get over it. EVERYONE. Flatten the curve was a great idea and training exercise for the next worse one. BUT those who echo the utopian of the WHO and mask wearing hysterics that this disease can be 'eradicated' is in dangerous denial. They're setting up a toxic culture where blame is placed on disease carriers who should (practically speaking) remain blameless because of its transmissibility. And at the very end of this pointless destruction... it won't work anyway.

It doesn't kill children like the 1918 did. We need to count our blessings.

No one will die on any hills. Red states will open up completely and return to the old normal, and Blue states will ride this thing all the way down to the bottom. Or the day after Joe Biden winning the election. Whichever comes first. TDS commands this. Their suddenly maskless hypocrisy will be revealed and no one will notice.

Choose your tribe and relocate if necessary. It's going to get worse before it gets better.

Curious. People that don't want the cops called on them over a mask are "blowhards?" That's an odd usage of the term. I've never seen it before.

I think it’s more transmissible than the common cold. We don’t see ICUs in a region coming overwhelmed due to the common cold. This is a hallmark of COVID seen in all epicentres where it was out of control.

I think Florida did a great job of showing without a lockdown the virus could be managed but I dunno I know there’s a lot of people in the middle who will look at the damage that covid has done to the country, look at pedo joes claim he could’ve handled it better then look at how trudope has kept numbers low in Canada and assume Biden would’ve done the same in the USA.

How is the mask functionally different from covering your mouth. Why do we need to wear a muzzle that effectively turns into a petri dish after you cough or sneeze into it when you can cough or sneeze into your elbow as we have done for decades if not centuries? Your logic might be sound if there weren't an obvious, culturally ubiquitous, and scientifically proven alternative that DOESN'T have all of the shitty side effects of a mask.
