Breitbart ^ | 03/02/2021 | Victoria Friedman

Susan Hopkins, a specialist in infectious diseases at Public Health England, said that Britons should wear masks made with at least two, or even three, layers, and left open the possibility that the UK might follow the U.S.’s lead and recommend double masking.

The British government made wearing masks, or any kind of face covering, in shops mandatory in July 2020, with the government advising they be made with at least two layers of fabric.

United airlines gave me a three layer mask when boarding a plain last summer. It’s awesome. I cut out two layers and through them away. I like to drink coffee through it in public when surrounded by Karens.

It looks pretty gnarly now. That’s fun too. :)

I already feel like a kid trying to put a plastic bag over his head and nearly suffocating as he fights to rip it off again.

No fresh air coming in. And my glasses fogged, so I take them off.

Hitchhiker : 7’s the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that’s the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin’ on a branch, eatin’ lots of sunflowers on my uncle’s ranch. You know that old children’s tale from the sea. It’s like you’re dreamin’ about Gorgonzola cheese when it’s clearly Brie time, baby. Step into my office.

Ted : Why?

Hitchhiker : ‘Cause you’re .....’ fired!

Great. I sense another thread from our FResident FearBro (or FearBra as the case may be) coming down the pike.

Don't feed the FearBro!

I think that they should just wear ‘duct tape’, or better yet DUCK tape over their mouths and nostrils. In a few minutes, NO MORE COVID...

You should have developed the “drinking problem” of the guy in Airplane. Coffee, Coke, iced tea splashing all over the passengers.

Six is a better number.

Do it for the NHS.

These people are ridiculous and desperate for attention. Heck, why not just make everybody wear environmental suits from head to toe. I am starting to believe that these supposed infectious disease “experts” (especially that little twerp Fauci) aren’t worth the paper their degrees are printed on.

I think it should be 33. And the minimum hourly rate $300. And highest tax rates 105%. And all IQ points should be doubled. And stupid scientists forced to shut up.

No one that I know of that has swabbed the inside of a mask after it has been worn for several hours and had the swab incubated to find out what lives in there after it has been worn.

I mention this to a health care professional and he said that he didn't want to know what was growing in his mask.
