I wonder how he got that job?
Take a 12 by 12 inch piece of cloth and attach two rubber bands using two staples.
Put cloth on face and rubber bands around ears.
Put on eyeglasses/sunglasses to close bridge of nose gaps.
Put another rubber band around cloth and neck.
I’ll pass. But if someone else wants to then more power to them.
“bit for everybody else they are worthless?”
The reasons that medical personnel wear masks, i.e., in the operating room, for example, are to prevent the person wearing the mask from giving their germs to anyone else, not to prevent them from receiving germs from someone else.
Now do you understand?:
Anyone wearing a mask in public is trying to prevent giving their ChiCom virus to anyone else.....or so they say.
Give me solid studies on how this is transmitted in everyday life. Then we can make an informed decision.
Cornavirus tip...
stay the he^& at home...you won’t get sick
Irresponsible advice. I’ll wear my mask, thank you very much.
Well, I do see this day in and day out.
Don’t be stupid. Medical personnel need them because they are clearly dealing with sick and effected people. THat’s not necessarily the case when you run to the store or pharmacy. Think a little bit before you write.
Sophistry. Pure sophistry. He’s trying the junior freakonomics routine but it’s simply because there are not enough masks.
You think medical people don’t touch their face when wearing a mask? I know.. they are “trained”. But the truth is that dozens of trained people, including doctors, are all over the internet touching their faces while telling us NOT to touch our faces.
A mask is useful, but there aren’t enough. But government lies almost constantly so they cant SAY that. They lie when the truth would fit better, they lie more than a teenage girl, they lie for profit, for control, and because the look down on us.
I would respect him more if he just said, yes, they are helpful for everyone, but there simply aren’t enough and won’t be for a while.
no, have the sick people stay at home and the rest of us go about our business.
Exactly. Open mouth, utter dumb nonsense.
The failure of the U.S. to have masks so that everyone can wear one is the major reason why the pandemic will be worse here than in other countries. People in Asia just shake their heads at our foolhardiness.
“You are wandering around out in public presumably with a six foot bubble between you and anybody else.”
Ohhhh, that must be why that and the flu don’t spread around in the community.
Because?
You choose not to wear one. I choose to wear one. Ain’t freedom great, FRiend?
If it keeps me from absent-mindedly touching my face that one time I needed to go out and picked up a surface virus, and glasses keep my fingers aways from my eyes, before washing, well...I really don’t mind being called an idiot by the likes of you. Not at all.
