Continuing to say masks do not work is complete and utter BS.

I only wear a procedure mask to see most patients. Only use N95, full head shield and gown for symptomatic/COVID patients. Guess what? I have ZERO immunity (was tested) and have yet to get it.

Please, ANYONE, show me just one legitimate clinical trial that proves masks don't work.


Masks work but people are stupid> people touch their dirty mask, pull them down, rub their mouth or even eat food.... that is not mask failure, that is user failure.

Also see dumb people wearing gloves, like it will keep COVID from absorbing through the skin.

Wash or hand sanitize correctly OFTEN. I keep hand sanitizer in my pocket or purse. Every time I am out of my car I hand sanitize before getting back in the car. Pump gas? Open gas, put card in one hand, push zip code other hand, fill car, put gas pump back with dirty hand then sanitize before getting back in car.

As I have said 1000 times. I am not supportive of complete lockdowns, but am 100% pro mask. And yea, large indoor gatherings are a dumb idea right now. If you can go see your family and distance or eat outside. Great.

Just found out my step son has it, as does his wife. They were planning to go to his wife's elderly grandparents for Thanksgiving. Think they would have felt a little bad if grandma or grandpa had got it and dies in a hospital all alone? I know the answer because I SEE IT ALL THE TIME!


Yea, I'm jaded.


No, I'm fuggin; educated. Do you tell a certified mechanic he is jaded if he can tell about the car he is trained to work on and has done so for 20+ years?


I'm gonna go drink

Just curious.

Let's face it nobody likes to or wants to wear a mask or be limited on what we do but we seem to regulate most dangerous activities. Drinking and driving, requiring shots before goto school/college, seat belts, etc.... Of course most regulations are about money let's face it... So are mask mandates and shutdowns about money (think long term) and or are they about saving people?
Lots of businesses require flu shots and their people to wear protection, OSHA although being retarded alot of times regulates work areas.
I'm not abdicating for shutdowns/limiting one way or the other as I think we don't really have a handle on what to do. I wear a mask where I feel it's needed to protect myself as alot of people are stupid and just like regular flu go out with symptoms and knowing they are sick. Who hasn't wanted to push a coworker into a wood chipper that came to work sick as hell and spread it.
Fyi i had a meltdown when they shuttered my son's school earlier this year when precautions were being taken already and not an environment where anyone is close to one another.
I'm debating starting a thread on this shutdown /mask/no mask/limits but frankly people couldn't keep it civil so what's the sense.
As for herd immunity.. That's great except I don't want to be part of that herd that gets it, I'm fuked up enough thanks.

Every store I have been in for the last 6 months has required a mask to enter. That means I had one on and everyone else in that store had one on...and I got Covid. I got sick because shit happens. People get sick. Period. If I was so concerned about being sick, I would have stayed home. There is NOTHING...literally NOTHING anyone can do to prevent getting Covid. You either will, or you will not get it. Period. No different than getting, or not getting the flu, or a cold.

ADDED: Early in October, I went to a bar in Cabo. No one had a mask on. I walked through the entry and immediately noticed it. At that point I made a decision as an adult, about my health and my willingness to risk getting Covid. I went in maskless, had a great time and in spite of those conditions, did NOT get sick. Conversely, in the last month and a half, I have worn a mask more than I ever have before. That includes wearing one at my office where it was not previously required. I got sick. It proves there is no logic, there is no rhyme or reason, there is no rule that will help anyone.

The MAJORITY....VAST MAJORITY of the population is not wearing an N95 mask. Nor are they throwing whatever they are wearing, away 10 times a day because they have a supply room with 20000 more whenever needed.

Masks that don't work:
Home Depot painter's masks
Bandannas
Disposable blue paper masks
Any mask you can buy from WalMart, Etsy, Wayfair, Alibaba, Ebay, Walgreens, CVS, the flea market, Facebook, or a million other sources
The cute sexy lace one that looks like underwear

Now of the list above, and including N95 masks. What do you see more of when you are NOT at work?

If the law/politicians/health experts, really gave a SHIT about health, those other masks would be made ILLEGAL and N95 or better would be mandatory.

But they don't give a shit. They don't care if the numbers rise. In fact, it gives them MORE power. They have ZERO motivation to keep us safe and a shit ton of motivation to keep us in line.

You are protected by the TYPE of mask you wear along with a thousand other protocols that do NOT exist in WalMart.

As for your mechanic analogy, I have encountered MANY mechanics that made it clear to me that I knew more about cars than they do. Bad example.

Plenty of college grads can't change the battery in their TV remote. Don't equate years with knowledge.

You are extremely jaded and can no longer see the big picture. No one faults you. As I said before, the soldier's war is different than the general's.
