Perfect example of living on the edge of risk. Funny as well.

They probably picked it up somewhere else.

This is just more fear porn that will be used to shut down EVERYTHING for weeks.

Pity those who do not have enough food and other supplies. Maybe.

Here is the article
https://jkms.org/DOIx.php?id=10.3346/jkms.2020.35.e415
Evidence of Long-Distance Droplet Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 by Direct Air Flow in a Restaurant in Korea

A good example of how we have no control over this virus other than wishful thinking.


Cloth masks cannot filter out aerosolized particles. Only an N95 mask.

If you believe a cloth face mask will save your life, then it feels like no big deal wearing one.
If you realize cloth masks do little to nothing though, then they are annoying as hell.

According to years-long research on respiratory virii, half of your exhaled breath is an aerosol with particles <2.5um in size. Any one of these can infect any person, and they hang in the air for hours. Add to this that no mask is effective:
( A Cluster Randomised Trial of Cloth Masks Compared With Medical Masks in Healthcare Workers C Raina MacIntyre etal ): “Penetration of cloth masks by particles was almost 97% and medical masks 44%.”

By the way, I don’t have locks to keep people out of my house.

The locks are there so as to require effort on the part of bad guys who wish to get in. That effort results in noise. Noise wakes my dog. Dog wakes me. Bad guy regrets picking my house, but only for a few seconds. That is all he has left.

In the event I am not home, the effort leaves evidence, sets off alarm, notifies the sheriff, etc.

If your mask has an alarm that notifies you that you are under attack, I highly recommend you wear it.

Mine does not.

I know...I am mean, but I just could not resist.

“You’re willing to lock up business owners who are trying to keep their businesses from being completely destroyed (because of fraudulent information about the Wuhan Coronoavirus) based upon a propaganda POS article from the Sea$$hole Times?

What the hell has FR become?

OK sorry I forgot the Sarc tag!

You wear a mask and let everyone else get on with life.

Would medical mask be N95?

Why do we talk about bleach, soap, disinfectants killing this virus?

I fit in to that category.

My employer requires that I wear a mask and they supply the cheap junk paper Chinese import mask, so I wear that.

Considering the non-existent fit of those mask, I might as well not be wearing the mask at all.

That raises my frustration to a whole new level.

CDC says you need about 15 minutes of contact time to catch it. So using this criteria, cruising through a super market (or any other store) is an unlikely source of contracting it.

Colloidal silver kills em all!

I have only read of Colloidal Silver having anti-bacterial properties.

Never heard of any anti-viral effect.

The purpose of all these masks is to create statistics...and everyone of the "plans" devised by Fauci and his "scientific method" is for the same reason...to create stats. And we're his lab rats.

Observe...that's all we're getting out of these "scientific methods"....stats. Not one life has been saved.

I have to wonder if this was one of those experiments that were performed again and again until the desired results were obtained? I only ask because we have seen how the science has been made to follow what is politically expedient when it comes to this virus.

Feds deny it

However. We’ve been using daily and never get sick

Except for norovirus

The silver ion kills / deactivates all single cell organisms

Yes. Learn to hack and become a troll and make every day a living hell with constant agitating of every liberal/leftist/communist.
