You need to have an endless supply of N-95s and be able to practice mask discipline the entire day. Proper wear of the mask and do not touch your nose area or adjust your mask.

Since 99% of people can’t do this, masks are nothing more than theater. I see people all the time with full beards in masks that do not fit properly.

Masks are useless.

As far as vaccines, they may work for some. But since 99% of all people will not have bad outcomes anyway, what is the point? I also wonder that if you were going to have a bad outcome without the vaccine, perhaps you will have a bad outcome despite getting the vaccine?

So I think you should get the vaccine due to the off chance that it may help you. I don’t believe it to be dangerous.

Insurers are now charging co-pays even for covid care.

Want to lower your risk of medical bankruptcy? Get fully vaccinated and wear a mask. Your choice.

None of the idiotic mandates have worked, as the data proves.

The reason the pandemic is worsening under Biden is because of the mandates.

Worry about yourself and you’ll be fine.

I do not want to hurt another person.
My condolences on your son...very sorry to hear that. I continue to wear the mask inside in public places for the same reasons as you.

How could wearing a mask and getting vaccinated possibly make it worse? That makes zero sense.

Nobody will stop you. Of course the reason you haven’t gotten sick has nothing to do with your mask.
