Yep. And it’s so ingrained in people’s heads, you can’t even have a conversation about it. So I don’t post that on other threads. Not worth it.

Yes, we’ve discussed that, previously. How it’s all timed and rolled out, to prevent panic.

I just find it incredible...that the SG told us NO masks....and, yesterday, puts out a craft-type vid for a HOMEMADE mask.

We all knew, here, on these CV threads, that CV could be spread via droplets. I don’t think there would’ve been mass hysteria if they would’ve told public that, a month ago....and, suggested their homemade cloth face masks.

Look how many have been infected, due to droplets, since.

Here it is simply zoomed in and it looks fake as can be. That middle knuckle looks like the rest of the fingers which are folded and what's up with the silver blunt end of the finger?

It’s a blessing and a curse.

My wife started sewing them and donating to a hospital and now she’s getting bombed with requests, emails, and texts, can’t keep up, and people are mad at her for no reason.

Good on you. We have to plan for this.

That dumpster fire is one reason I never get a flu shot.

If they can’t even be honest about that data...what other data is also of ‘dumpster fire’ quality?

CDC is not to be trusted.

Maybe up until the 90’s...after that, buyer beware.

I’ve a stack of masks I’ve sewn....to send to family/friends. I made some smaller ones, for the littles.

The problem, now, is finding the PM 2.5 filters (like in the linked masked you posted).

I have no interest in mass producing masks, though, lol.

Aren’t you in Indianapolis?? Hotspot.

But even if you were in rural state with hardly any cases...I could see people getting mad

You solve that problem by selling on Etsy.

Donate one make one. The one you sell pays for the one you donate.

There is a company out of Indianapolis making masks and is gearing up production. You can even have him do a logo or customize

www.millgear.com

She could probably work for him at home!

Flu stats are a dumpster fire.

Here, here but re: COVID-19. Unless the data can be normalized so that stats and regions can be compared, the value of the stats is limited.

Some people focus on COVID-19 deaths. Okay... but deaths is a lagging indicator. I think new hospitalizations is a better measure of where an era is in regards to COVID-19.

I’ve got an autistic son. A week or so after a round of shots, it was like a switch got flipped in his brain. He was normal up to that point and starting to talk. He quit trying to talk and became fixated on a single stylus sized toy. Didn’t speak a word until he was 4 1/2.

Okay... but please go back to some early COVID-19 threads. There were several on the threads dismissive of people wearing masks, with explanations such as the virus is so small it will pass through the mask, etc. etc., while ignoring the other benefits of wearing masks.

The reality is at her age, she doesn’t need to be sitting at the sewing machine for 12 hours a day, I’m about ready to steal some vital part out of it when she’s in the bathroom LOL.

Money talks, bullshit walks.

My only comment on that.

Government agencies were long ago captured by their respective industries.

Ditto. I haven’t trusted them since I read their pandemic planning back in 2008, and saw they really had no plan to stop the spread of a pandemic. Then I saw it played out with H1N1 and again with Ebola. It was always let it come, and make a vax 🙄. Only they are either in their head over this one, or at a scorched earth level of TDS/globalism. I have long believed getting the shot against one strain might make you more vulnerable to severe cases different strains and different viruses. There are studies out there about it, but you won’t find them on any of our government health pages lol
