You’d have to wear a hazmat suit with an independent air tank to be 100% sure of not getting the virus. And then You’d have to decontaminate between suit ups. Really? Let’s get back to normal. If you’re sick, STAY HOME!
Mask theater.
I am tired of playing along.
But people desperately want to believe. Wearing a mask does nothing except make the wearer feel like they are doing something, and that’s all that matters, feeling good about yourself.
pretty sure two N-95’s will work, however
Three surely will........................

Yup. Got a tour of a bio-lab many years back. Protection from viruses, the very smallest semi-living organisms on the planet, requires extensive protective gear, decon procedures, and controlled airflow. The idea perpetuated by many that a paper mask provides any protection against an airborne virus is ludicrous.
The most benign reason I can come up with why the government pushed masks as they felt they had to do “something”, even if they knew it didn’t work. The government didn’t want to appear to be powerless. So masks became a sort of adult blankie.
“...they felt they had to do “something”, even if they knew it didn’t work.”
From the “do something, even if it’s wrong” School of Government, PSYCH 101 syllabus.
A plastic dry cleaning beg will work, however 🤣
Yet the stupid county executive in the county my church resides in just put in a new mandate. I won’t be attending if they go along with it this time.
Thanks for the post. The county next to ours just instituted a new mandate by their communist county executive.
My county is a lot more reddish. I just sent the article to our Executive telling him to follow the science and not the fear. People are smart enough to make their own decisions.
I've been saying this exact thing since March 2020
Pathetic!!
I find masks serve a purpose.
Helps me easily identify uni-party members.
bkmk
Even with a full biosuit getting out of it without cross contamination and exposure is difficult. We used to train for this by taking new recruits getting them into the suits then coating the outside of them with karo syrup dyed bright blue the recruits task was to remove the suit in.decon without so much as a speck of sticky blue anywhere on their body. The success rate for the first try was less than 40% this was for NBC rated soldier’s who would get 25 weeks of training to accomplish the mission in a NBC challenged environment. The average civilian has a zero.percent probability of not contaminating themselves even in a full sealed biosuit with a full SCBA breathing set up. M40 masks with NATO canister filters are rated for NBC and will filter viri in addition to.chemical agents and.fall out particles down to submicron levels.
Yes, but you have to make sure to seal it around your neck tightly with duct tape.
