Council Bluffs or Sioux City? (cost of, design, place)

[allstarr]

We're looking at options for where we'll settle (we're rvers) for the winter, and looking for options for when our 2nd one comes, in a good few months.

Looking for a place that isn't totally mask Nazis, where they still have a sort of sense, knowing that "...from literature published during 1946–July 27, 2018. In pooled analysis, we found no significant reduction in influenza transmission with the use of face masks..." [url]https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/5/19-0994_article[/url]

You should read the fine print. That study was done on only disposably loose fitting masks designed to stop "splashing" of contaminants during surgery into the mouth and nose and didn't include form fitting masks such as N95 and P2 masks. Had you checked to see that apples were being compared to apples, one would find plenty of literature showing form fitting masks are quite effective at preventing the spread of respiratory viral infections.

Go to Council Bluffs, because I don't want you anywhere near me. Anti-maskers are selfish, selfish, selfish, and un-Christian.

Better yet, go someplace like Northern Idaho where all the wackies can infect one another to their hearts' content.

Nothing wrong with either city. Your attitude about masks on the other hand, is ignorant and selfish. I already know too many people who have died as a result of COVID. Its too bad so many people think a cloth over their face is tyranny, but people dying is just the cost of freedom, or a hoax.
