I am fully convinced the mask are useless. We have been wearing them for months now and cases are going up. I believe it is spread through touch more than we know. Example. When you go to the grocery store, you pick up items that have been handled by a loader and unloader plus the person stocking the shelves. You pick them up and and then the check out person handles the item and sometimes a bagger. When you get home you handle them again. Is every person in that chain sanitizing their hands properly. Probably not. Same principle with bank transactions involving checks. Just my uneducated observation. Touch is a funny word. Especially contactless locations like food. Who made it? Who packaged it? Who brought it to you? The items didn't do it all themselves. Stupid. Someone has to touch something regardless.

I was in a big store the other day trying on coats along with about 100 other customers trying on cloths and shoes. This place required a mask. Against my will I wore one. I had it over my mouth but not my nose. I was quickly ask by the employees to cover my nose. All while over a hundred people are trying on clothes and shoes. The mentality is unfathomable.

I'm zero liberal. The scientists have said from the fuggin beginning that the mask does not keep you from getting it, it helps prevent you from spreading it. And if 2 people are together and both are wear mask, that is optimum protection. You may not be a liberal, but you must have about the same I.Q. as one I'm curious? What is it about me stating mask might offer a bit if protection based off of my personal experience that makes me a phuckin liberal?

Eclipse, you, your mom, her caregivers, your uncle and your wife all caught the Covid because Jesus wanted you to. Just thought I’d add more stupid to this thread.  BTW hope everybody is doing well.

What's a hoot is ya'll all think not wearing a mask is going to stop the socialist. What happened in 1773 in Boston wouldn't have made a dam difference without those willing to fight afterwards. Its going to take a heck of a lot more than not wearing a mask to right this ship.

Thanks, Everyone is doing well except for the one that died. Well I guess he may be doing better than all of us cause, he's with the Lord and not being overtaken by a tyrannical government. Probably don't have to wear a mask in heaven either.

Probably don't have to wear a mask in heaven either. Good sound reasoning. Live or die, im a winner either way. But if the Lord wishes for me to live, i choose a life of freedom, life more abundant. Jesus died so i could have it and i choose not to squander his death.

The virus is airborne.
I urge those willing to wear a mask to increase their mask quality. When the pandemic kicked off, N95 grade masks were scarce. They are now available to the public, but the message has not gotten out.
You do know that the virus particles will pass right thru a n95 mask like a mosquito through a barb wire fence don’t you? N95 is infinitely better than most of the trash people are currently wearing but even the filtration capability Of the n95 is still not sufficient to prohibit the particles passing through it. It also doesn’t work effectively unless it is completely fitted and sealed on your face which none of the ear loop masks will not do. If it makes you feel better, wear it but don’t trust it to protect you from Covid.

I’m fine with folks wearing whatever they want to, just don’t preach to me or think you are going to tell me how to live my life. To each his own and I respect folks’ right to choose to wear a mask, or not.

Doctors and nurses in hospitals with PPE -- presumably the best you can get, I'd suspect, in most or some instances - still get the virus.
First responders are getting it.
People in states and countries with severe lockdowns and travel bans have gotten it.
People on ISLANDS have gotten it.
Someone transported it to Antartica via a research ship.
Wearing a flimsy neck gaiter or cheap mask you buy in bulk at a store ain't going to help you any more than using window screen as a condom.

the MASK POLICE tried to get me at Bessemer WalMarks yesterday. AS I came thru the front entrance an employee tried to talk to me as I passed her. She finally said "do you have a mask"????? I said NO and kept walking....idjets.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....
