How many needed hospital care ... good question! As far as I know, maybe one. An older Hispanic guy. Language barrier in talking to people that know him. But he is doing well. DD, her nurse roommate who gave it to her, and DD’s fiance had mild illness and recovered at home. One of the guys in my department is younger, which is good, but gay with underlying health problems, which is bad. Not sure about him. I guess if he were seriously ill or in the hospital we would have heard.
The meaning of "complementary" is that they achieve the same goal. One or the other will work, but both together works better. People did indeed wear masks in 1918, lots of them in lots of places e.g.outdoor sporting events. Masks slowed the spread and impact of H1N1 and herd immunity did the rest.
So, what's his esteemed thoughts on this supposed unprecedented surge in 'cases' if mask wearing went from zero to 70% the past few months?
Phony overstated test results, counting all deaths as covid, buying faulty tests, paying a bounty for new 'cases'. No room for fraud now is there?
Re: “The meaning of “complementary” is that they achieve the same goal.”
Thanks for clearing that up. I thought you misspelled complimentary.
The point of my previous post was that if masking actually prevents infections, then it is impossible to achieve herd immunity, for COVID, or for any other respiratory infection.
I love it!
I think we all agree that it doesn't. Masking only slows spread in some cases. It will probably prevent super-spreading events.
