Take a can of spray paint, hold it 4 feet from the wall, give it a blast.

Now do the same thing with a mask in front of the can.

See any difference?

Take a jackass that sneezes full throttle like a spray paint can.

Now take that jackass and slam his head against the wall.

See the difference?

Put on a surgical mask with pores in it 50 times larger than the largest virus. Breathe normally, but after inhaling smoke or visible vapor. All that air has to exit. If you're not sneezing and coughing, you're simply breathing in and out and whatever you breathe is mixing in the air around the area. Then you touch your nasty face diaper and spread whatever you're breathing in and out onto surfaces, you may as well be blowing snot on your hand and wiping it on a door handle.

This is the simple disconnect that makes the entire thing idiotic. If you ARE SICK then stay home but if you can't wear a mask and try to stay away from people. If you AREN'T SICK then go on with your life like we've been doing for millennia. You exist because you come from a very long line of survivors. It's not suddenly necessary to inflict stupid rules on people who are at a less than 1 in 10000 chance of dying from a virus even if they get it.

Common sense and logic have no part in the discussion about masks.

Just a side note:

The prez is NOT on HCQ or AZM.



Guess it's not the miracle prophylaxis OR the cure.

Budesonide, famotidine, Vit C, & Zinc for the win.

No, they are giving him remediver or however you spell it and it's very expensive. But HCQ with zinc does indeed seem to work quite well. Look at the number of C-19 cases/deaths in places that hand HCQ out like candy (India and Africa for example.)

My 'almost' 80-year-old parents have the Rona now as does our pastor and my brother and his entire family living in his house. All tested positive... all but two said "it feels like a cold". The other two show zero symptoms at all. Is it getting less lethal? You don't hear about death count anymore either.

My son, wife and I have all had it. We have no pre-existing conditions that would have put us in a higher risk category. The headaches sucked monkey balls and the coughing sucked, but other than that it was similar to a sinus infection. I will add that I still have a nighttime cough that I have never had before and it has been about two months since testing +.

my mom tested because of an elevated temperature as she and my dad test themselves daily since this started. Once she came back positive, dad went and got tested. Outside of her temperature and allergy like symptoms, she felt good. Dad tested positive but feels the same as always.

shit affects everyone differently apparently

It will be interesting to see the policy changes now that Trump himself has the virus.
