Covering different parts of one's body serves purposes (warmth, appropriate conduct, formality, etc.), and it's bogus to say it's against God to do so, as God loves people, not their attire.
I'm sure God would be thrilled that his children are being reckless about their health and not using the brain he gave them for a reason.

Education and listening to the medical community would definitely go a long way.

Cleaning masks is a problem unless you talk bandana or cloth. Surgical masks are not suggested for cleaning. N95 and KN95 are similar...

I said in this thread I don't wear masks because I can't find a legit n95 mask. But started to notice that when I say that in other places, it's considered me being a "right-wing selfish tyrant"....

When I'm not even on the right lol. But is this how it is now?

Mask wearer = liberal / Democrat
Non-mask wearer = right wing/conservative

Yes, cloth masks. Many people leave then in their car and don’t wash in between uses. Many also touch them constantly and don’t wash hands in between.

You’re supposed to wash it every single time.

And you realize how much extra energy that causes from washers and dryers and how bandanas are not in stock. The problem is we low on everything due to lack of preparedness. I luckily had tons of bandanas from local radio stations. Most dont

I do realize that. It does use a lot of energy. But I also I understand that when masks are not cleaned in between uses they can infect the wearer. If you’re going to use a mask, you really have to be careful and use it properly because if you’re not, you can cause more harm then good. You can increase rather then decrease your risk of infection. It’s one of the biggest reasons why I can’t support mask mandates.
