That is not true. Masks can reduce the spread of the virus, they are not 100% fool proof. The nurse who caught the virus from you can still spread to residents at the nursing home even if everyone is wearing masks.

That's okay. You don't need to understand why people exercise their rights.

Exactly. I didn't post this in the History board. That should tell you something.

I honestly don't think you are not able to distinguish the significance of events that happened before the shutdown and events that happened last week. When a person plays dumb, that person tend to get treated as dumb. Just a word of advice.

I have provided proof and I have explained to you why your pointless rebuttal is pointless.

I know you have a tendency to keep marching on pretending your argument didn't get shot down in flames. What usually follows is more pointless attacks on the liberals until the mental juice is empty.

Funny, a vocal minority have this mistaken idea that they have the right to spread deadly diseases. They don't.

Actually, yes they do. In fact, they do this every year with the flu. Sorry, but people don't lose their rights because you feel scared.

The post I'm quoting is post 64...


No, because you think you have, means nothing.


Now, my argument was shot down in flames? Provide the post number or post numbers? I mean, your post is only #64, it should not be hard, even for you.


You've already forgotten what you've posted, in this short 64 post thread...(At the time I posted this)

"or otherwise as directed by a doctor"

Like during a pandemic where you can be infected but not know it yet.


They are effective at reducing risk of spread directly ahead...but exhaled breath gets directed behind you instead. So don't stand too close behind someone in a mask.

What about the Flu? Don't you dare come back with, this is not the flu, is the flu deadly and is it spread by people?
