Bacterial pneumonia anyone?

https://unitynewsnetwork.co.uk/medic...-mask-wearing/

It refers this "study", scientific study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25903751/

Always watch when you read something as they will say that there are no studies that show that something doesn't happen, but the thing is, there just are NO studies, and none that show that it doesn't cause ill effects when you wear a cloth mask. Some of this is really logic, anyone remember wearing those faces on Halloween and how nasty they got in just a couple of hours of trick-or-treating? Areas with moisture are breeding grounds for bacteria. So simple, yet people are just too dim to get it.

Portuguese Court rules that PCR tests are unreliable. #science

So your 'cases' are a bunch of malarkey.

Good luck with getting into Costco

Masks don't work, not because everyone is not wearing them correctly, they just don't work. I just cited medical studies stating that masks offered no significant protection. If you are in the same room as an infected person, your paper mask or homemade cloth mask will not prevent you from breathing in the virus.
And what's bad is people ignore social distancing thinking they do more than they do.

My wife was in line at the grocery store and some woman comes up behind her in a mask, so close she can feel her breathing on her neck, ignoring the distance marks the store puts on the floor. And someone else walked up right behind that woman, breathing on her neck while masked.

Per Dr. Fauci about that image that was widely circulated on social media along with comments about how Fauci was setting a bad example or acting hypocritical by wearing a mask below his mouth and not social distancing, but the above-displayed picture may not be as “damning” as some are presenting it.

Dr. Fauci: “The other person is a very close friend of mine,” Fauci responded. “John, I think this is sort of mischievous with this thing going around. I had my mask around my chin, I had taken it down. I was totally dehydrated and I was drinking water trying to rehydrate myself. And by the way, I was negative Covid literally the day before.”

“So I guess if people want to make a thing of that, I wear a mask all the time when I'm outside,” Fauci continued. “To pull it down, to take some sips of water, and put it back up again, I guess if people want to make something about that, they can. But to me, I think that’s just mischievous.”


It should also be noted that a water bottle can be seen directly in front of Fauci, and that the NIAID director and his guests, which are his wife and close friend, are sitting outside. In many cities where restaurants and other businesses have reopened, people are allowed to remove their masks when they are eating or drinking. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also notes that outdoor activities, such as attending a baseball game in an open-air stadium, is safer than indoor activities.
Excuses. He's in a public place.

Like every place in Europe?

There is no science. And its starting up again in New York which has strict rules.

This, the researchers say, is faster and more intuitive than conventional methods used to study proteins, such as molecular modeling.

Wow! Great post! I learned something today from CD...yay! Thank you for posting this link. So cool.

Your conclusions are meaningless and they certainly aren't "science." We've presented you with the science and you continue to lie about it.

If "the science is out there" and proves what you're saying, let's see it. I'm not talking about a youtube video with someone sneezing, or a press release from some deep state apparatchik. I'm talking about a randomized controlled trial.

Well, the studies I read, incorporated hand washing, social distancing and wearing masks, even using all of these they still said they offered no significant protection. And yet.... here we are, with government telling us if we wash hands, social distance and wear masks we will be safe and be significantly protected. These studies clearly showed that masks do not stop the virus.


If you are in the high risk group, you really need to severely limit your contact with people. The healthy young people can follow the mask, hygiene and social distancing, but they should go to work, and get on with their lives. Albeit making sure they do not interact with high risk people.

I live in WI, everyone is masked up. I only saw one person at a store who didn't have a mask. We are spiking in positive cases. It's clear as crystal, that wearing masks has not made a difference here.
