They really had no clue, still don’t, and maybe never will.

How fu$%ing hard is it to comprehend you are helping yourself and others from getting sick by wearing one.

 

[204guy]

Wonder when Karen's apology will be coming?

He might be saying that in regards to the WHO saying that it's very rare for asymptomatic people to spread the disease which was kind of the whole point of wearing a mask.

Asymptomatic COVID-19 Spread Deemed 'Rare,' WHO Says

A paper in the Annals of Internal Medicine stated that the prevalence of asymptomatic cases of COVID-19 may be a 'significant factor' in the spread of SARS-CoV-2, but the WHO thinks otherwise.

Yes asymptomatic, but how do you tell an asymptomatic person from a presymptomatic person? It's pretty tough.

While that is great news, it's still important to wear masks and continue to test+contract trace to isolate those in the presymptomatic stage from spreading the virus.

Karen is too busy yelling at cops for infringing her rights to dump her kids off at a park while she makes Instagram influencer videos for her new makeup line.

But we're not supposed to trust the WHO.

I know and there will probably be another statement from them saying asymptomatic people are superspreaders in 2 weeks.

Trusting anyone, no matter where you stand on this is about like trusting the weather forecast. Flip a coin.

Man I tell you that is the most frustrating part about all of this. Our news agencies are garbage. Each is out for their own gain and twist everything you can imagine to sell a side.

Flip flopping, twisting facts, lying, doctoring videos. Makes me wanna puke. I think everyone would do themselves a service and turn the TV off for awhile.

I have several theories on those who vehemently are anti-mask. Like I said, these are just theories so take them with your own preconceived grain of salt. I don't want to argue with others about masks anymore and I wear one when public indoors, seems simple enough for now. The list:

#1) People don't like being told they must do something for the greater good, especially if it doesn't really benefit them much as individuals. It's pure selfishness rooted in pseudo rugged individualism.

#2) It's a self coddling response based in denial of an event crippling countries worldwide. It's definitely the more convenient route, and gives feelings of security to pretend an invisible enemy is simply an overhyped threat that won't directly affect them/their community in any substantial way.

#3) Trump doesn't wear a mask - good point, yet this is Trump you are talking about....same guy that also suggested lysol and light to fight the virus....

#4) Propaganda claiming masks actually increase your chances of getting sick, hurts your immune system, causes CO2 poisoning, etc.

#5) The herd immunity argument. Basically, this virus just needs to run its course, the sooner we let it do that the sooner we all get back to normal. Problem with that is hundreds of millions of Americans need COVID to reach herd immunity, and millions would need to die for it. Is that cost to society acceptable?

#6) People that decide to wear a mask and follow local health recommendations are being weak, thoughtless sheep. Yet again, countless studies and other countries employ this technique and have much lower case numbers than the US.

#7) The "I had a REALLY bad flu in early January, I'm convinced it was COVID, so I'm immune now argument" - if you took the time to get an antibody test and you can confirm that, then great, if not you're playing with fire.

#8) American lack of social cohesion - for political purposes federal leadership strives to continue to divide Americans against one another, increasing the stark polarization of every facet they can of daily life, including the virus. You have to ask yourself who this ultimately benefits....hint: not the general population.

Will you see me riding around on a bike down the street wearing a mask? HELL NO. Will you see me driving in my own vehicle wearing a mask? HELL NO. Will you see me wearing a mask inside major public places such as grocery stores? YES, duh.

Lastly, I should say that I work from home, so I'm not someone that is being forced to wear a mask day in day out just to bring home a paycheck. So I'm perhaps mask privileged, and I admit that might bias me.

How about we have spent billions funding the same agencies that have themselves flip flopped multiple times about wearing one ? One would think they could at least nail that one after decades of endless funding and research. Quite frankly I have lost trust in science because they have failed and become beholden to who holds their purse.

You missed mine. 1.25 million americans die in auto accidents every year, when all the pro mask folks turn in their car keys, we can have a discussion about what's in the best interest of public health and safety.

 

[Dustin the wind]

Why aren’t the mask nazis more outraged about fat and unhealthy people’s exposure to unhealthy processed food? Last time I checked, unhealthy eating habits lead to a few more deaths than covid.

 

[Dustin the wind]

Why not develop a mask that fuses to your face permanently and only accepts organic meats and salad?

Lol....no.
Check your facts.

If you’re going to try and make an illegitimate comparison, that has absolutely zero relevance, at least post even remotely correct statistics.

You naysayers are simply grasping at anything....just like the liberal media you all despise.
Guys blindly ‘like’ your post, even though your numbers are like 40x to high and totally false lol...

Being part of the problem, is just that.
No better than the folks you talk down about.

You keep citing a statistic that is completely false. 35-40k, not 1.25 million...

Because your food choices don't affect anybody else's health.

No just their wallets.

A) where do you get your alternative facts?

B) thanks, I had no idea that car accidents were contagious and one car accident in China could spread to millions of Americans. Such a great analogy you've made.
