Sick people, stay home or wear a mask. Healthy people do not need masks.

Doctors everywhere are being silenced about this. Instead we buy into the for-profit vaccine/poison producers. No thanks.

You did here that people who are infected can spread the virus for up to 14 days before they know they are sick?

Ridiculous. They may have no symptoms but still be spreading the virus, bigly. Everyone needs to wear a mask when out in the public.

I'm getting so sick of the many experts and expert opinions that are being spread like a virus. How about basic common sense. What did your mama tell you to do when you have to cough? Cover your mouth. Why is that? Hmmmmm.

Please don't tell me your mama is wrong. Yes, face coverings are not perfectly keeping the virus in. BUT they are minimizing the spread and distance of your germs. Just like your hand, except you don't have germs on your hand now.

Come on think. Don't spread some wacko's opinion that you heard from a friends sister's brothers aunt who works with OSHA.

Are you truly ignorant about why you must wear a mask? Or are you just being stubborn?

There's an active thread on such conspiracy theory nonsense elsewhere on C-D where all the nutjobs gather. You'll find kindred spirits there.

Maybe all the mask protesters should join the BLM protesters. At least many of them have the sense to wear masks.

I know you mean 'hear' and not 'here', but here is something we all heard:

"There's no reason to be walking around with a mask"

Dr. Anthony Fauci on 60 Minutes.
From the same interview:

While masks may block some droplets, Fauci said, they do not provide the level of protection people think they do. Wearing a mask may also have unintended consequences: People who wear masks tend to touch their face more often to adjust them, which can spread germs from their hands.

So it is really not so simple.

I found the link in 2 seconds.

Plus, statistica has us right at the top as well as of 6/21 and we've exploded since then.

But don't worry, you won't believe it anyway.

It was on another thread. That data matched what other data is saying. There is a LOT of data validation happening to make sure what is reported is consistent with other indicators.

It would be better if those types of graphics were always linked back to the data.

I live in Nevada and am very happy that masks are mandated. The sooner we all cooperate the sooner the virus will be behind us. I have asthma and when the mask gets to be too much I go home. We are all in this together.
