Seriously. One thing said about the masks and Covid, is that the Covid virus is SMALLER than the microscopic openings in a typical (Chinese-made) paper mask.

So the mask actually doesn’t keep the virus out.

Isn’t the same true for cold and flu viri?

Do an image search on duckduckgo for “mammals nostrils” and “birds nostrils”. None of them have fur or feathers covering their nose or beak. Not even polar animals. They or their ancestors have survived hundreds of million years this way. Well then why aren’t they all dead?

SARS-CoV-19 is approximately 100 nanometers in diameter. Securing a plastic bag with tightly wrapped duct tape over one’s head would keep it out.

It fits right in with their simultaneous use of “critical theory” to destroy us.

They have nothing to offer but fear itself.

When I see “experts say”, “experts warn”, etc., then I’m beginning to believe the exact opposite is true.

A simple relationship, really:

Mask-wearing promotes fear and distrust which generates demand for more control which results in less personal freedom, thus more tyranny.

Most people -- by which I mean the vast majority of people; "normal" people -- have little interest in controlling other people. Thus, the incredibly strong desire -- a basic need -- of those who must control others (controlling others gives them "meaning" -- the very reason for their existence -- in their otherwise shallow and meaningless lives) is difficult for most people to even begin to understand, much less practice or respect.

Or......maybe not. Prior to getting the virus & those questionable shots, I had not had not had a cold for a long time & nor had the flu in a VERY long time. I Never,ever wore a mask until different places started requiring it within the last several months. Now, who knows what next cold & flu season will bring? I just bet that next fall & winter that the push will be on for wearing those stupid ineffective masks again. Makes me glad I am a senior & don’t plan to be around forever planning on how to put up with this BS.

A society that’s adverse to risk dies. I believe that is what being pushed by the elites to take us out.

I had many colds and flus when I was a kid. Now, my children get them but I don’t. I am glad that my body was able to build up a practical encyclopedia of defenses against various and sundry colds and flus.

The way i see it is if anyone wants to wear a mask, it’s their right to wear it...If anyone doesn’t want to wear a mask, it’s their right to not wear it...

I’m not going to say anything to either person...That’s what freedom of choice is...

But, I do NOT believe in mandates...That is NOT freedom of choice..

Specialist infectious disease doctors and mental health experts warned Tuesday that freedom from masks could increase happiness and reduce suicides. “It’s a troubling reality” said Dr. No Fun Yu of the Doomsday Clinic. “Social skills may also increase” she warned.

A White House official speaking under the condition of anonymity revealed that the creation of a special task force to study the issue is under consideration. Infectious disease expert and celebrated buzz kill Doctor Anthony Fauci is likely to lead such a group.

My wife started working at a nursing home ten years ago and brought home the flu and colds all the time and we were sick quite a bit and then it just stopped and we haven’t been sick from the flu/cold for five years. Guess our immune system is built up. I haven’t worn a mask throughout covid and covid has been through the nursing home more than once. We should have gotten covid by now you would think. Maybe we’re immune to it as well.

“I imagine it’s going to start expanding to all of the other states as well, as the mask mandates are lifted ...

That sounds scientific.

Isn’t the same true for cold and flu viri?

Quite correct. All viruses are smaller than a wavelength of visible light, rendering them invisible with an optical microscope.

Among all the virus “families” corona viruses are the smallest. Corona viruses include the common cold virus, Covid, SARS, and AIDS among others.
