Right on. I hope Herman Cain knows about the cure you mentioned.

The problem is with only 10% of the US population tested we don't know who's healthy and who's not. I'm sure you are aware that asymptomatic carriers exist.
I don't know what your background is, but perhaps somebody with medical training and experience with this virus can weigh in here:
Presumably, asymptomatic carriers are still experiencing an active infection, which would mean that their infection would follow the same pattern as everyone else's: 1) initial infection, 2) active infection around 5-6 days later, 3) removal of the infection by the immune system within 5 - 14 days, resulting in immunity for some unknown length of time.
Now, if this is the case, then even asymptomatic carriers will only be so for a two week or so period of time, and then will have achieved some level of immunity and will no longer be a threat, mask or not.
The reason this is relevant is because the concept of the "asymptomatic carrier" seems to be the main boogeyman used to justify universal mask wearing, despite the WHO recently admitting that there was no data to support the existence of asymptomatic infectious carriers, and the relatively small window of infectiousness they would have even if they existed.

I guarantee you have more liberty wearing a mask than being 6 feet under. This is a false dichotomy. It's not a binary choice. Not wearing a mask does not equal a death sentence as Fredo's big brother likes to claim.
"The alternative is death", proclaims andy the incompetent. Let's differentiate ourselves from the emotional driven leftists who seek to control us with fear.

Using seat belts in automobiles and wearing helmets when riding motorcycles should be the driver/rider’s choice.

“It will, however, stop most of your viral transmission to others.”
No, it does not. You’ve been gaslighted by the media to think that.

The arsonists, looters should all be forced to wear the masks. Right?

My husband has COPD. A soy boy in Booksamillion tried to bully him into telling him what his health condition was, and the minute my husband said that was illegal, the mask-wearing bully backed off.

Glad I saw this. I'm going to Myrtle Beach tomorrow.
Thanks!

Thank you. Those of us wearing masks daily are experiencing headaches, nausea and dizziness. We WERE healthy before these disgusting things.

The little city of Forest Acres has caved to the karen-gaggle.
At least the overgrown toddlers on nextdoor.com are happy. I resent it and will be as much of non participant as possible. It’s not much I know.
I’ll be ordering in a whole lot more.
Except for fuel, I can get just about the rest delivered.

St Augustine near where I live passed that all have to wear masks unless they have health issues. I am waiting for one turd to tell me to wear it. So far no one has, but it will happen.

Liberty does not extend to a license to endanger others' lives. If it did, drunk driving would be legal. Your right to extend your fist ends where my nose begins.
You realize that this argument works against mandatory masks and not for them, right? You demand that others wear masks to protect YOU, when you have every right to stay at home and live in a plastic bubble. You have no right to demand that others take on a burden for your benefit.

By that logic society has no right to ask drunk drivers to sober up before getting behind the wheel since we can all just walk instead. Liberty does not include the right to endanger others. Putting convenience before the inalienable right to life is how we got Roe vs. Wade.
