What is so hard to understand? If you need a practical example, try exhaling smoke/vapor with and without a mask on. Or sneezing.

OMG are you seriously comparing smoke particulate to a virus?

It’s the mathematical equivalent of a planet to a golf ball.

How about if a cloth mask can stop a virus why can you smell a fart through your undies & pants?

I said practical example. Why are you in denial about things? Experts on this have already weighed in on this. It doesn’t reduce risk to zero, however it cuts it down significantly. Combine it with social distancing, and the risk becomes basically zero—and that’s the whole point. When we have morons out there not doing what they’re supposed to, it screws everything up. Shit is already back to normal in Europe, and the only difference is the average intelligence of our respective populations.

Personally, I’m good either way, so whatever. I just think this country is filled with self-centered simpletons, and I wish they would stop making the rest of us look bad. I can’t even travel because this place has turned into some third world shithole, on the same list as places where you need to get shots before you can visit.

So anyone that doesn't subscribe to the 'experts' opinion of the day is either a fatty, simpleton, softy, moron, or asshole? Do you wear a mask when in a car by yourself?

Yes, they are one or all of the above. Why would I wear it when I’m alone in a car? That’s dumb. I literally only wear it to be respectful to others, so if I’m alone....

I’ll be glad to cut one that’ll gag ya from 10’ away whether you have a mask on or not.

It’s certainly being pushed towards a 3rd world shit hole, but it’s not because of some virus.

By all means keep drinking the Koolaid though.

Six of the top ten countries for new infections are in Europe, so they still have issues.
UK and France just blocked travel again a week or two ago.

The number of globally recorded coronavirus cases passed 40 million on Monday, according to John Hopkins University, and while more than half of those cases come from the U.S., India and Brazil, an increasing proportion of new daily recorded cases are emerging from Europe.

In total, over 7 million cases have been recorded in Europe since the start of the pandemic, according to the European Center for Disease Control, with 241,291 deaths.

After new restrictions were imposed in several countries earlier this month, Switzerland has followed Italy in imposing a nationwide mask mandate in all public spaces from Monday.

While not as restrictive as previous measures imposed when Italy faced a severe COVID surge earlier in the pandemic as it became the first country to surpass China's death toll, local mayors have been given the power to close piazzas and streets from 9 p.m. and bars and restaurants must shut by midnight.

Ireland's government has announced that, starting Wednesday, it is returning the country to a full-scale lockdown for six weeks, reinstating restrictions close to those that were in place in the spring at the height of the first wave of the pandemic.

The new lockdown will raise restrictions from Level 3 to Level 5, banning all house visits, closing all but essential retail stores, and requiring people to stay within a 5-kilometer (3-mile) radius of their homes. The new guidelines represent one of the strictest national lockdowns in Europe.

“I can’t breathe in this thing!”

Okay, fatty lmao.

If your income was effected, then perhaps it’s time to ask yourself some hard questions. For one, how necessary is your job and what makes you think that you deserve a paycheck, if the world keeps running without you? A lot of people are struggling with the realization that a fast food employee is more important than their ability to pour drinks or entertain.

Yea, masks are annoying, but I’ll gladly wear it if it means someone will still have their grandma around this Christmas. Why? Because I’m not a selfish asshole. I’ve already had the virus, and even as an athletic 32 year old, that shit still sucked. Was I ever in danger of dying? Doubtful, but it was not a very pleasant 2.5 weeks either. And guess what? I’m just glad that I get paid sick days, or that would have sucked.

The people complaining are soft as ****.

No it doesn't.

There is a highly anticipated Danish mask study that is finished, but has not yet been published. The lead investigator says it will be published "As soon as a journal is brave enough to accept the paper." It doesn't take a genius to figure out what it concluded.

They say "follow the science", well that is the science. And it is being silenced. Any and all evidence questioning the efficacy of mask wearing (and there is a lot of it) is suppressed either by social and/or political pressure or by out and out censorship.

They don't work.

And the medical community has known they don't work from the beginning... based on evidence going all the way back the the 1918 pandemic. Heck, you prove it - you obediently wear your mask yet you got it anyway... how did that happen?

This should not be controversial. Wouldn't you want to know if your military supplied flak jacket was effective before they sent you into battle? This is the same thing.

You know who is soft? The people who are willing to mindlessly follow orders without thinking for themselves or doing some research of their own.

Do that with your mask on and get back to us on what you discover.

And a virus is waaaayyyyy smaller than a smoke particle.

I fixed your post for you.

You're welcome.

If this is true and you actually mean it, apparently you know masks don't really work.

CDC numbers. They really try to bury all statistics.

Oh... don't worry I have.

What has been buried for months is the "NY Study" where random people on the street were tested for COVID. That study showed 13.9% of people tested were positive for antibodies.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/04/23/new-...uomo-says.html

I dropped that down to 10% for ease of calculation and to give a GENEROUS margin of error. The actual numbers are lower than I stated.
