Clearly masks don't work. Everyone at my job is vaccinated and we have to wear a mask 100% of the time. Yet for months covid cases have been coming up left and right.

^^^ Probably the can of soda is as dangerous as the Covid particles she is trying to avoid. I LOVED the zipper.

Are people wearing proper surgical, or preferably KN95 masks? Is anyone wearing cloth masks? Because cloth masks DO NOT work! Might as well wear nothing. Also is everyone wearing the masks with BOTH their nose and mouth covered. It's funny how when I go to stores and fast food places, all employees are wearing masks, but half of them leave their nose exposed. Sorry but that won't cut it.

Also, just as an added tip, you might want to invest in a face shield. Combine that with a good KN95 face mask, and you will be VERY WELL protected!

No **** me too. I could care less if I get covid or not. I care more about my safety coming and going when it's dark out on the trains.

What's that have to do with reality?
Sorry but the options aren't no masks or you go on ventilator.


Oh don't get in a car you might die in an accident!

That’s why I wear seatbelts in a car. But let me guess… seatbelts don’t work.

What fear mongering? I’m not asking anyone to stay at home. All I’m saying is to wear a mask. Very simple!
