I encourage any debating my pro-mask stance, to post up a legitimate study showing that masks DO NOT WORK. I keep hearing, show me, prove it.... I do, but the naysayers cannot do the same. All they do is post opinion pieces that do not hold debate vale.

https://www.npr.org/sections/health-...elps-heres-why


What is this, like the tenth time around the loop? Let me see if I can explain it another way:

My bachelor's degree is in Chemical Engineering, and I have spent a large amount of time in hazardous environments, so I know from experience this: A mask that is appropriate for the application at hand, that is properly worn and cared for, can provide tremendous protection.

You seem to want to take this to a ludicrous extreme, by concluding that ANY mask, worn, treated and cared for in ANY manner, provides significant protection from basically anything. You have ignored studies already posted in this thread demonstrating that wearing a bandana over your mouth and nose actually increases the likelihood that you will contract the virus should you come into contact with it, and continue to point to the efficacy of appropriate masks that, at least at this time, are not available to the public.

If the government was really serious about safety, they would stop the mask bullshit until appropriate masks for the application at hand are available to the general public. But they don't, because it isn't about safety, it's about control and the dissemination of fear.

How many Covid deaths in the US so far? 140,000? And we know how those numbers are counted.

We killed 862,000 babies in 2017.

The same people commanding you to wear a mask are the same ones advocating abortion.

Don’t kid yourselves...this is not about preventing loss of life.

Stop. No I did not.

I didn’t kill any babies. I am guessing you didn’t kill any babies.

Lower in USA due to multi drug treatments and now preventative medications. NOT due to responsible condom use. Starting to see a common denominator here..... MEN seem to have a hard tome following directions.


Only took 37 years to get to this point
So AIDS was another one of those diseases which we did not know everything about it the day we discovered it. Must have been a hoax then.

We didn't make EVERYONE wear condoms under threat of fines or jail or close businesses because of AIDS/HIV. We didn't threaten business owners with fines or pulling their business permit if they let customers in without a condom.

The health department did close all the gay bath houses in San Francisco back in the 80s and even the gay people didn't really complain about it. They never opened back up. In Nevada where prostitution is legal in most counties laws were passed requiring the hookers to have periodic medical exams and be tested for AIDS. They also passed a law making it illegal for them to have unprotected sex if they knew they had AIDS. California passed laws about condom use in the porn industry.

Has anyone in your state or city been put in jail for not wearing a mask?

Ohhhh man..... Don't be steppin' off the curb here.
You could end up with a huge pink penis picture adorning your chest.
Be careful.
Please practice safe talking, or, better yet, wear a mask so these deaf people can't read your lips.

Stop passing the $$$$, I clearly asked that any on here that are anti mask, post up a study saying that masks (not bandanas) DO NOT WORK. Still waiting.




STILL waiting for that STUDY.......

Hey, I may be a minority here, or the only one comfortable debating my position. But hopefully I have done it in a respectful way.

I did quite well in debate club, but that’s been a few years (cough.. decades).

It's beyond me how those tough Texans had their highest Covid count today, again. Day after day, they break the old record.
Maybe they should stop testing ??? Just laughable.
Just don't wear a mask tough guys. You'll show us.
