Strawman argument; I've never said we should be like Chicken Litten and I have never made the argument that the sky is going go fall down upon us. I'm comparing simple, easy precautions with a very good cost:benefit ratio. A mask worn while shopping in the grocery store costs pennies and reduces risk of transmission significantly. A seat belt costs very little relative to the cost of the vehicle and saves thousands of lives every year.
"Get rid of your forks, especially plastic ones, they are too risky."
Another strawman. I never made any such argument. Nor would I.
"Next time you need read the reason behind the false sense of security than to spout out thinking you have a valid argument."
I base my arguments on evidence and reason.
"I do know several people where the seat belt or lack of one was the reason their life was saved after being hit by a semi-truck. I also know someone where a seatbelt almost killed him in an accident because the seatbelt sliced into his upper torso causing life-threatening injuries. So if not wearing the seatbelt saved someone’s life, we wear one but what about in the instance where the seatbelt almost killed an individual? Do we not wear one because there would not be a 100% chance that it would save us had we not worn the seatbelt? Actually, seat belts also give a false sense of security in an automobile crash. If you think I am just saying this to be saying this, next time just ask your passenger what would happen to them the next time they snapped that seat belt on."
Seat belts have been well studied for decades. They reduce the risk of fatal injury in a vehicle crash by 45% and reduce the risk of serious injury by 50%. That takes into account those extremely rare edge cases where the seat belt did more harm than good. You seem to be trying to make the argument that seat belts are bad for safety. That is demonstrably false based on decades of evidence.
"Every single hospital will not allow that mask and hand m an inferior mask. You know the one the blue one with ruffles which will not even stop a COVID particle."
This merely demonstrates your lack of understanding. The hospitals are right. You are wrong. CDC specifically cautions AGAINST wearing masks with vents. That is because such masks defeat the purpose, which is to reduce the range and volume of the respiratory droplets that enable the transmission of SARS-CoV-2. The masks they're providing accomplish that task. Yours does not.
"Here is another issue, does the mask have gaps on he side or the top or bottom when you wear it? If it does, it is useless/ Why? Do you think a COVID virus will say oh look they are wearing a mask, I have to go through the mask? The COVID virus does not care it will get around the mask through the openings on the side or top or bottom. It will also get around the mask for those males sporting a beard. The mask is useless if it comes through anthor entry point."
Again, totally misunderstanding the purpose and function of masks. They reduce the volume and range of respiratory droplets exhaled from infected persons. Secondarily, they may provide a very small level of protection for a non-infected person, but that is not their primary function nor is it the main benefit provided in the reduction of transmission risk.
"And that is what is meant by false sense of security because the general gist of the mask is wear the mask don’t get COVID. But hey, go ahead with the seat belt analogy and I have several people who will tell you otherwise both had a false sense of seat belts too."
Seat belts reduce the risk of serious injury or death in an automobile accident; they do not eliminate that risk. Masks - worn properly - reduce the risk that an infected individual will infect others. They do not eliminate that risk. Your "gist" is wrong. Along with pretty much every single other claim or statement you've made in your post. Demonstrably wrong, based on evidence collected by experts who spend their careers studying these specific issues.
“I’ve never said we should be like Chicken Litten and I have never made the argument that the sky is going go fall down upon us.”
I call BS right here. Did you not state this:
“That would be a disastrous policy.”
As far as I am concerned you have already lied to me. Nothing you state or say matters after you words “ I never made the argument...” The moment you said this was a disastrous policy, you cried like a little momma’s boy and became Chicken Little.
Go sit down and let the people who know what they are talking about do the real talking. You are just another part of the problem.
This merely demonstrates your lack of understanding. The hospitals are right. You are wrong. CDC specifically cautions AGAINST wearing masks with vents. That is because such masks defeat the purpose, which is to reduce the range and volume of the respiratory droplets that enable the transmission of SARS-CoV-2. The masks they’re providing accomplish that task. Yours does not.
My understanding is correct. And the “sports mask” that has two layers of breathable fabric beneath the exhalation vents to allow the intake of more air when running or biking is perfectly acceptable. The part with the vents is if there is no underlayment beneath the vents. So once again you spout off before you know what you are talking about.
You base your arguments on Chicken Little evidence and reasoning. The CDC states not to wear a N95 mask but that is the only mask available that will stop the COVID virus. So Sit down and be quiet for once in your puny little life.
