This is from an actual conversation.
Q "Why are you even wearing a mask if it's not covering your nose"
A "masks like this don't even work. I can't get in to Costco without one so I wear it."
Q "what if everyone did that?"
A "I don't tell everyone what to do, besides, I already had the virus. It was back in February and I was sick as a dog with the respiratory issue and tested negative for flu".
Q"did you get the Covid antibody test?"
A "no. That test is a joke. 50% accurate at best plus I know I already had it so what's the point?"
Q " so you think you can't get it anymore?"
A "duh"
Q "and you think you can't spread it".
A"again, duh. Most people get it and recover without even knowing."

This is the mentality. No need to test. I'm already immune and there's no way to prove anything so I can believe what I want.

Most of them, like sniper, still think the masks are to protect themselves.

I try to avoid respectable establishments. But, if the business owner wants me to wear a mask, I will. I have no problem with that. It's their business.

Ask him how many time he thinks it has mutated since its inception.

Mutations seem like about every 2-3 weeks for this one. That's why when it hit the west coast, it didn't kill too many people. But when it came through Europe, it mutated into a few different strains, and when it hit NYC, it went on a killing spree. But it killed quickly, and didn't last very long.

So, it mutated again, and now it's not just a lung disease, its a vascular one. It travels through the blood, and affects ALL of the organs, not just the lungs. It also became less deadly, killing slowly but also spreading more easily. Reports form those who have recovered say that they have symptoms of dementia, liver issues, heart problems, etc.

This thing is evil, and it doesn't give a F*^k what we think.

If you are old, fat, or have pre-existing conditions then get yourself an N95 mask. Otherwise, leave people alone and live your life, Karen.

The homemade versions and fishing gaiters are basically just people playing dress-up.

Study 1: "The use of fabric materials may provide only minimal levels of respiratory protection to a wearer against virus-size submicron aerosol particles (e.g. droplet nuclei). "

The people bitching about people not wearing masks are the same kids that you never wanted to trade papers with when the teacher allowed kids to check their own work in elementary school.

I guess some folks just want to look like assholes to get some attention.

That is a perfect description of a few people on here. Meanwhile, the "governor" in Georgia has now overruled mandatory mask ordinances at the city level. http://www.npr.org/sections/co...g-local-mask-mandates
Georgia is having a huge spike and he's moving backwards.

It's a shame the government didn't make the effort to get the population real masks. Brevard didn't. Florida didn't. Federal didn't.
