Do whatever you feel best will protect you. If you want to wear a mask, wear one.

I don't care but your mask stops at your face, not mine.

Vaccination is another layer.

The "vaccine" is neither safe nor effective. Common sense was and is 1000% more effective than the illegally governmentally mandated jab.

I don't think it was an attack but a lab-leak screwup that was taken advantage of by globalists and mad scientists.

Really think twice before electing any medical doctor to public office ever again.

You’re a cretin.

A study done in 1981 where they took off the masks for six months and and no increase in infections.

Dingbat.

Add the usual disclaimers about cloth pore size vs virus size, air flow around the edges, touching and adjusting the mask, N95s and the rest.

Dingbat.

If you want to increase your risk of getting sick, start wearing a mask.

They stop NOTHING but oxygen to your immune system which is critical for optimal defense.

Covid cases AREN’T “surging”, they are falling. According to Worldometer, in the US daily new cases are running about half of what they were in September. Worldwide, there has been no surge.

I thought the correct answer to that question is “no, I just lay there.”

Covid must have caused a significant increase in stupidity because it’s been rampant since 2020.

If you’re stupid enough to ask that question, you should definitely wear a mask as a warning to sane people.

Stupid question. St. Fauci has said several times, in television, that masks do NOTHING.

I am convinced that 85% of Americans are CLUELESS. Bunch of dumb, blind sheep who lack common sense and critical thinking skills.

If you really have to ask after all of this time, the answer is “Yes” and stay locked inside at home.

So amid rising COVID cases, should you be wearing a mask?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Me? Hell no. But you? Yeah you should put one on now and keep it on night and day until either Fauci tells you to remove it or you croak!

Should you wear a mask? I don’t know, will a screen door on a submarine keep the water out?

Acifidity baga and scarab beetle amulets...equally as effective as masks.

“I don’t think it was an attack...”

It was too well orchestrated. There were parts of the virus that came from different parts of the world like the aids from Canada, and the lack of sars passing bats in the US. There is a bat in Mexico that can get the virus but it can’t pass it on, Free-tailed bats.

But this supports that the virus first appeared on a small scale in November 2019 with the first large cluster appearing in Wuhan, China in December 2019. It was first thought SARS-CoV-2 made the jump to humans at one of Wuhan, China’s open-air “wet markets.” Later theories voiced concern that it may have originated as a biological weapon in a lab in China.

As COVID-19 spread both inside and outside China, it infected people who have had no direct contact with animals. That meant the virus is transmitted from one human to another. So leads to the theory of passing in an unnatural sequence. Currently, there are two hypotheses as to its origins: exposure to an infected animal or man-made in a laboratory. There is not enough evidence to support either argument. However, there are not enough of the horseshoe bats that carry sars2 in North America to sequence a natural infestation.

Horseshoe bats have a mostly Paleotropical distribution, though some species are in the southern Palearctic realm. They are found in the Old World, including Africa, Australia, Asia, Europe, and Oceania. The greater horseshoe bat has the greatest geographic range of any horseshoe bat, occurring across Europe, North Africa, Japan, China, and southern Asia. Other species are much more restricted, like the Andaman horseshoe bat (R. cognatus), which is only found on the Andaman Islands. They roost in a variety of places, including buildings, caves, tree hollows, and foliage. They occur in both forested and unforested habitat, with the majority of species occurring in tropical or subtropical areas. For the species that hibernate, they select caves with an ambient temperature of approximately 11 °C (52 °F).

But notice a lack of identification with the western world of enough horseshoe bats to create a pandemic, almost none. It had to be planned.
