It can save lives and science shows it. At some point, we have to realize that the truth is the truth and that with some issues our opinions really don't matter.
I disagree. It save 100,005 lives. Would you dispute that?

The "scientists" once drilled hole in people's skulls to save them from insanity. I wonder who the Dr. Faucci was back then?

I have no problem here. Wear the mask, indoors.

Oh, and don't forget your disposable gloves and bottles and bottles of hand sanitizer to slather yourself with.

We have some bottles of hand sanitizer out at my place of employment for customers' use. It's HAND sanitizer. it's supposed to be for your hands I swear, some of them literally just about bathe themselves in it, pump after pump, putting it on their faces, neck, all the way up their arms, into their beards.... It would be laughable, if it wasn't so gross.

I actually wear a mask most of the time into store, the library, etc. Why? NOT because I feel it's really necessary, but because I just want to get in and get out quickly without a hassle. I know I'm not alone. I'm a grown up, and I'm not into other grown ups trying to share with me why they think they're so smart and "good". Mind your own business.

Disagree. But it sure has turned lots of normal smart people into idiots.


Many of you probably wouldn't wear condom if asked. You'd find it offensive. You'd think it was a form of Conservative control. You probably would whine about how doing something to protect both people is mainly just the other person's problem.

Yep, and social distance 10-15’ outdoors and 6+’ indoors. Wash hands, problem solved.

Once again someone with no background in science (and I mean actual science, not the science invented by governors and celebrities) promoting masks as a panacea to the pandemic.

People, masks only work IF they are the N95 variety. Those dingy, filthy cloth rags you wear on your face have giant pores more than 1000x the size of a SARS-CoV2 virus. It's like trying to stop flour with a sieve - pointless.

Yes, masks work but only if everyone wears and N95. You can dump your saliva infested cloth rag right now.

The Denmark mask study was so true they couldn't even publish it

We are going to have to keep wearing masks forever until you anti-maskers start wearing them so we can beat the virus
