My wife wore one on a plane in addition to a mask. What is it going to hurt?
Good move. I’m not flying until they get control of this disease. Wish they would have a better system to clean the air on the plane. Seems like everytime I used to fly I would get sick for a few days.

Perhaps this mask would be a better fit?

Different masks have different air resistance. Go shopping for another type than the one you have.

What's harder? Barely breathing or no breath at all?

Covid sufferers all say that they can't get any air just before they die.

I'm sure it is much worse than wearing a mask.

But that's me. Do what you want.

I already wear a face shield instead of a mask because I simply can't breathe in a mask. Sinus issues makes it damn near impossible to wear one.

Probably more along the lines of armbands, boxcars, covid camps, and showers.

Are you serious?

He/she probably is. That's what Covid Derangement Syndrome does to the thought process--fanaticism.

Of course, it's hard to tell these days because the post is so outlandish it could only be taken logically as satire. But there ARE people who really think like that. So, who knows.

Yet 130,000 people out of 135 MILLION die in the U.S., most were dying anyway and these people are in a full blown panic, largely caused by the Media and Democrats (same thing). They are treating it like Anthrax or the Plague.

Yep. Exactly right. I often wonder what society would do if a disease as serious as the black death plague came along and we had no cure (as the people who dealt with it hundreds of years ago didn't). Would we get through it? I have my doubts. If a less than one percent mortality rate does what it has to our society and economy, imagine what a sixty percent mortality rate would do. I don't think society would make it through. We would simply "lock up" and if the disease didn't kill us, we would finish the job by killing each other. We are way too psychologically fragile to deal with something like bubonic plague rationally. A combination of the plague and psychological meltdown would have us on the brink of extinction in short order.
