“Then doctors should stop wearing masks in COVID-19 hospitals.”
Really. Because the doctors’ spouses sit at home at their sewing machines, making little masks for them out of leftover quilting scraps. (I could be wrong, but ... oh, I dunno ... it COULD be that the masks doctors wear in COVID-19 hospitals are of a higher quality. Of course, I could be wrong about that.)
Next month, if my surgeon walks into the room wearing a mask of puppy dog paw prints, or Star Trek characters, I might worry.

See my #103. All it takes is a magic marker and a cheap mask.

My mask now says:
Thanks for the 8-week
free trial of communism
I’ll have my
LIBERTY
Back now.
I buy fabric sheets that are made for inkjet printers. You print on the fabric side, peel off the paper backing, and set with an iron. Then rinse with cold water, partially dry on paper towel, then re-set with iron. Then make whatever mask you want.
I have a pattern for a 3D mask that gives a large area for for a message.
Like you, my brother and his kids get creative with Sharpies on ready-made masks. His boys are super conservative and even though they’re young they come up with some good stuff. The youngest is eight.

The argument from the pro-infection crowd goes like this. It speaks for itself.
Five Quick Things: Let That Mask Slip
The American Spectator ^ | 25 May 20 | Scott McKay

“The virus...between 0.06 and 0.14 microns...The pores on an N95 mask...are 0.3 microns...doctors and nurses...need a steady supply of them...”
And yes, there are doctors whose family members are making masks for them at home. The option of making masks with check valves (exhalation valves) and putting better filters in the filter pockets is looking better each day.
There are masks worn by morons, and there are masks made and worn by makers.

I’m already wearing a TRUMP T shirt, hat and TRUMP underwear. I don’t need no stinkin mask.

To: MayflowerMadam
I hear you!
I wear an N-95 mask when I go into the grocery store (and in this area EVERYONE in the store is wearing a mask - both the customers and employees) and it’s horrible. I have to mouth-breathe through the thing because I can’t get enough air otherwise and I can’t wait to get out of there and rip the thing off my face.
I really can’t comprehend how medical people can wear these things all day and still function. You’re right. Human beings are built to take in air, and when we can’t take enough of it, bad things happen.

I already do.
Mine is black and reads TRUMP 2020

Congratulations! You’re the biggest fool on FR. There are plenty of loonies with credentials promoting all sorts of nonsense.
I’m probably older than you. And I guarantee I’m smarter than you. Go head and keep trusting in your chem trail conspiracy promoting, anti-vaxxer quack. Or better yet, wise up.

The idiots are the ones wearing mask and doing harm to their own bodies.
When wearing face masks, especially for an extended period or during higher-than-normal physical activity, some people will experience symptoms like : rapid breathing,
rapid heart rate,
dizziness,
muscular weakness,
emotional upsets,
and fatigue.

Some of that sounds like panic attack by people with mental problems, but if there are some people who genuinely have difficulty wearing a mask under certain circumstances, those people probably shouldn’t wear them. Wearing N95 masks for long periods of time might cause some people physiological changes that are enough to impact them, but most people aren’t wearing masks for long periods of time and most people aren’t wearing N95 masks.

Wearing a mask is for DemocRAT liberals only, except for the gullible who believe the spin they're selling.
Democrats Demand You Wear a Symbol of Fear
May 27, 2020
RUSH: Oh, do you know what I heard right before the program started ?
This is another great illustration of a point that Ive been making for I dont know how long.
A quarterback in the National Football League and I didnt see it.
It was not videotaped so I dont know who it was.
But a current quarterback in the NFL actually said, Look, I dont want to get political, but I would like to get back to work.
Now, when the hell did going to work become political ?
Right now right here, right now and who has made this possible ?
Joe Biden and the Democrat Party, all these mask-wearing freaks demanding that you use the symbol of fear, demanding that everybody wear the symbol of fear.
I know why some people believe in masks, and its because of the success that weve had at grocery stores.
You know, from the beginning of this, people have been able to go to the grocery store, and there has not been the widespread infections of coronavirus in grocery stores.
People had to go there, and they had to go to pharmacies, and there hasnt been a lot of infection spread.
So those people in the grocery stores were all wearing masks and gloves and so the theory is that wearing the mask, wearing the gloves helped stop the spread.
So if it worked in grocery stores, why not elsewhere ?
But thats not the point, because thats not the motivation behind the Democrats and their demand for masks.
Their demand for masks is political.
Everything is political.
They hope to capitalize on the image theyre creating that were all about to die that were all very, very near being wiped out
and only those who wear masks are gonna be safe
and only Democrats advocating the wearing of masks care about people.
If you dont wear a mask, then you dont care.
Its kind of like the old red AIDS ribbon.
You put the AIDS ribbon on, and what does it say ?
Nothing !
It says, Im better than you; I care.
You dont care because youre not wearing this ribbon.
This red ribbon makes me a better person than you !
Well, thats how theyre using the mask now,
and its gotten to the point where an NFL quarterback says, I dont want to get political, but Id kind of like to go back to work.
Speaking of this let me find this very quickly the North Carolina governor has changed his thinking on the mask, Be patient with me as I go through the Stacks here, because
(shuffling papers)
This is typical.
You know, I think Ill get to it in the third hour, so I put it near the bottom,
and that means Ive gotta go through most of the Stack to find it.
I may even be looking in the wrong stack, but Im gonna find before I move on and forget it. (shuffling papers)
But its classic about how theyre changing their motivation behind the mask,
what the purpose of the mask is
and what it says about you if you dont
Well, I cant find it.
Thats also very, very typical.
But its essentially the mask isnt about safety now.
The governor of North Carolina has made it clear: The mask isnt about safety.
Its about showing that you care.
Its about showing that you have compassion.
Its about showing that you dont want to infect other people.
Its about showing that you are a good person.
And, remember, this is such a classic, classic way liberals achieve their supposed superiority over people.
Ive always said, liberalism is the most gutless choice you can makebecause it never requires you to solve anything.
All you have to do is notice suffering here, misfortune over there, and point it out.
And that makes you a good person.
That makes you a compassionate person.
And youll run around, youll get awards from people for caring.
And that is exactly how the mask and some of the other things the left is now attempting to maintain their moral superiority and its also a way
This NFL quarterback, Look, I dont want to get political, but I kind of like
This guys afraid to say who wants to go to work !
Hes afraid of whats gonna happen, and what is he afraid of ?
Hes afraid of Twitter.
Hes afraid of social media.
Hes afraid of whats gonna be said about him on social media.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Here, I found a Roy Cooper tweet, Governor Roy Cooper of North Carolina. Unmasking.
Remember, the mask, thats supposed to make us safe.
Keep everybody safe.
Keep you from infecting anybody and to keep you from getting infected.
Well, lets see.
Yesterday governor Cooper tweeted the following: A face covering signifies strength and compassion for others.
Wearing a mask shows that you actually care about other peoples health.
I mean, this is right out of the AIDS red ribbon handbook.
So now were not wearing masks to stay healthy.
We wear them as a symbol of strength and compassion. The problem with that is when the standard-bearer and the titular head of your party is Joe Biden,
there is no way that Plugs is a symbol of strength or anything else looking like the idiot he is wearing that mask.
This is virtue signaling.
Theres no science here.
