A person who wears a mask while driving a car; likely wears a condom when he sleeps by himself.

The Government may be lying, but our “skeptical” press is happily cheerleading the lie.

That's why doctors wear them around sick people. They aren't perfect, of course, but they do help.

The best research I've seen suggests that masks MAY have reduced COVID cases by at most 0.5%. Trade that off against the unhygienic nature of the things, people touching the contaminated surface of the mask, babies not seeing people smile, kids losing personal interaction with other kids and parents, the stifling control of big government, the people behaving as sheep, stale air, propagation of fear, vast amounts of litter.

On balance, it strikes me wearing masks has done a lot more harm than good.

Some might be making two or more stops at places that require masks and are in close proximity?

It would be more hazardous, as well as more time consuming, to take off the mask between stops.

Virtue signalling, nothing more. Even they know it is dumb, but can’t miss the visual opportunity to show their superiority and compliance with We the Woke.

Why would you expect the leftist cabal that is running the corrupt, demented Biden to administer the COVID pandemic response any better than anything else they are doing.

“ The government famously began their COVID-19 communications with a lie about masks. Despite what some of the fever swampers may tell you, masks work.”

I was at the beach last weekend....70 degrees, not a cloud in the sky, gentle ocean breeze....I saw several idiots walking on the boardwalk by themselves - no one within 30 feet of them - wearing masks.

Civilization cannot survive this level of stupidity.

The media scared us about the virus. Unfortunately it also scared people about the vaccine when Trump was getting it made. Now the public is afraid about the virus and equally afraid of the vaccine, and the left can’t figure it out.

‘From the start of the pandemic, health authorities have chosen gamesmanship over honesty.’

I have been saying this from the start, in response to some on this forum that apparently have medical backgrounds and connections...I’ve maintained there is a triumvirate of villains in this covidiocy, politicians, media, and medicos, and I further state that of these three, the most irresponsible is the medical community...

they were the ones who should have known better, and they said nothing, giving politicians cover to foment their dark mischief...

Don't we all? I mean, what if you have a wet dream?

If masks work, why do we need to social distance?

If social distancing works, why do we need to wear masks?

If they both work, why did we need to shut down the economy, destroy small business and millions of jobs?

Think for yourself. None of this nonsense was about any virus—was (and still is) about bringing about “fundamental change” promised by Barack Obama.

If you’re on your way to the grocery store, you’ll be wearing a mask to go in the store. There’s a stoplight near my store and I sometimes put the mask on when the light is red as I’m about to turn into the parking lot.

This seems pretty normal to me. Yeah, I had the mask on inside my car — for the 20 seconds it took me to enter the parking lot and park. I put one on approaching a drive thru window at McD’s, too. Take it off as I drive away.

Why is this a big deal?

They didn’t do any of this during the Asian Flu Pandemic of 1957.

Not only are they wearing masks in closed cars, some actually spend the whole day wearing latex gloves.

And they eat with them on, touch their face, touch other people, etc. It is clear these folks have no ability to think for themselves, and are just blindly obeying the fear porn.

If you are wearing a mask you are either being stupid or having to obey a stupid person. It is getting so you can easily identify store employees though. They are the only ones wearing masks anymore.

Goes to show the intelligence level and politics of CEOs.
