Try these fabric masks plus the welders plexi glass covering at same time. Harris County elections are run by Dems now plus plastic gloves all part of required wearing for election workers. 14 hour a day shift for ten days.

You can close your mouth when you finish talking.

Bullshit. Asserting an idiotic statement does not make it true.

...using it as a “political cudgel” against skeptics.

Both sides, pro-mask and anti-mask, are doing that.

‘Both sides, pro-mask and anti-mask, are doing that.’

other than on this echo chamber forum, where are you seeing any anti mask sentiment being used to badger people...? the mass media is wholesale committed to propping up the pro mask side...

I know of one case first hand. Friend of my mother's, woman pushing 70, confronted by a 30-something in a grocery store wanting to know why she wasn't wearing a mask and didn't she know it was all a myth anyway? I doubt she is alone.

There is no science that backs up your assertion.

None.

Mask wearing contained the virus in other nations. Mask wearing can contain it here, too.

Then please, by all means, LEAVE OUR COUNTRY and go to one of those other sissy nations.

I will NOT wear the mask. I refused just this morning, in church.

You attended church this morning??? Maybe you fell asleep during the sermon and Bible-reading. I find that hard to believe you were in church given your hostile, belligerent, ignorant attitude toward someone on this forum who happened to disagree with you. I hope no one with a compromised immune system or an elderly person with a less than robust immune system was sitting near you in whatever church you claim you were in. More than likely, you blasted the virus out of your big mouth as you loudly declared your inalienable right to infect everyone else whenever and wherever you choose.

The virus is found in aerosols that you shed if you’re infected. And you may be carrying the virus and not even know it. So, I hope your church has the ability to contact trace a couple of weeks from now after jerks like you who attended services with you likely spread germs everywhere. A mask is not perfect to contain the viral aerosols, but it’s better than nothing. And, yes, I’m a Trump supporter but he’d better learn to bite his tongue, especially when he doesn’t know what he’s talking about (which is often). And you don’t know either. The only sissies are people like you. Truly brave people have respect for their fellow citizens and don’t put others’ health in jeopardy needlessly to make some kind of asinine political point.

Watch the news coverage, Boob. Even the Republican governors in Texas and Florida and Arizona admit they’ve made a mistake about masks and social distancing and large gatherings. They’re now facing enormous growths in positive cases which will lead to more hospitalizations and more deaths. I feel sorry for hospital workers who have to face this all again because of morons like you who refuse to just wear a mask when you’re out among “sissies” who may not be as healthy as you think you are.

People like you are ruining this country. Social distancing is a LIE. Face bags are a LIE FROM HELL. Look around— the DEVIL has all of you in his control!
