O, my gosh!

Make! Up! Your! Minds!

How can it be that, after what?, 9 months?, "experts", "scientists", "medical "professionals", "et al", are still unsure of how it is spread.

We are being played. Pure and simple.

It is pretty much coming down to that.. and notice how handy all of those face masks are now to the riots that they planned.

Otherwise.. New England Journal of Medicine says.. face masks “pretty much useless outside of medical settings.” So, played and cowed too.. but, useful for the riots..

I think the article is playing fast and loose with the difference between airborne and aerosolized. I think it’s a big difference and I’m not sure the writer gets it. Heck, I’m not real sure the “expert” being cited gets it.

I think most of these articles are junk.

“We were played.”

YOU might have been played, but I wasn’t, and neither were million of us who didn’t fall for the propaganda.

I remember the early statements that COVID-19 could last one a surface for a *long* time. Hours, days. That alone sent everyone into a panic.

All this does is point up that our medical research on viruses is severely lacking, politically driven, or both. At the moment, I'm choosing the latter.

IF you actually read this article, she comes down on the side of face mask wearing.

Her point is pretty inchoate however as she explains that the particles are micron sized (much smaller than the N95 masks filter) much less the surgical masks and she doesn’t take into account the rebreathing aspect of concentration of the virus particles that do make it through.

She says that home made masks can be as effective as the manufactured ones.. but 0=0 , so yea.

She points to empirical observations that suggest that Taiwanese use of face masks prevented the spread of COVID there..

And, she points out that she wears a mask outside.

She doesn’t talk about utilizing Ultraviolet in HVAC to cut circulation of virus particles..

All in all.. this article is interesting but not that interesting.
