The left wing American socialist and communist are now running up the death toll like its a competition to outperform more notable historical tyrants like Chairman Mao !!! The same ideology and methods of past tyrants are being employed and having the same effect.

Oh good Lord, they said that last time! EVERYONE wears masks in some places. They wear cloth or drugstore masks. We STILL had a huge surge in my area last winter. And the delta is more contagious so.....

Maybe this time we can do something that actually works. EVERY place that has a door or window that can be opened should have them open. Fresh air. When the weather gets cooler, keep them open only a few inches, turn up the heat, wear a sweater, a hat, whatever. This will actually work. The stupid pieces of cloth and paper will not. If people can handle an n95, fine, but most people can't wear those for very long.

Wait. So they mandated and shamed and scared people into wearing masks and that didnt stop the spread, they are mandating, shaming and scaring people to get vaccinated and that is not stopping the spread. So now they are back to wanting to mandate, shame and scare people into wearing masks again. Because the masks and vaccines work?

Is there a definitive statement on masks?

You would think that if a certain mask is the same, all of the experts should come to the same conclusion on a particular type of mask.

The public health measures were supposed to be a stopgap until everyone could get vaccinated. Not made permanent.

If the Delta variant is tamed, then what happens when we have the Sigma Variant?

Yes!!!

Ventilation is SO MUCH MORE reasonable than telling everyone to wear masks forever.

I’ll just drop this mask information here. The author offers no commentary or bias, so you be the judge.

I don't wear a mask either and somehow haven't caught it.

Good for you - but not the point. The better question is - you don't wear a mask and how many people did you give it?
