The negative: the fake news media suddenly cares about what a bunch of corporatists say....
The last spike came and continues since mask rules became common.
Could there be a connection?
worked in L.A. (rolling eyes)
These CEOs have seen how acquiescent and self-deprecating most Americans have become ... bowing at the feet of blm racists and cowering in abject fear of politicians and unelected bureaucrats. The CEOs just want to get in on the action of controlling increasingly pliable, obedient scared Americans.
We have a high concentration of imbeciles here in Utah who will totally agree with this abject lunacy!
Americans are sheep!
Wait until hundreds or more are in shelters when the hurricane arrives. That ought to be fun. It may not be this one coming this weekend, but definitely it will happen before November.
Is there any PROOF that face masks stop or even materially slow down the spread of a Coronavirus?
Or is it just an article of faith that Im supposed to accept without question?
I’m not what I call a covid scaredy baby. It’s a virus with a 99.7% survival rate. But I do know it’s an unpleasant illness that I’d prefer to avoid.
That said, I’m softening on my view of masks. First, the transmission is aerosol. It’s reasonable to expect that a mask will block a substantial fraction of aerosol expulsion. It’s just counter intuitive to think a mask on an infected person wouldn’t mitigate the risk.
Secondly, there is the case of the 2 infected hairstylists who had 139 clients before they realized they were infected. None of the clients were infected.
Oh, okay.

After more than 50 years in south Florida I finally escaped about five years ago...none too soon.
I truly despise the Sun Sentinel. I see that now they have taken to capitalizing the b in black when referring to a black person. I guess that will obsolete the previous virtue signal African-American.
Masks are the proverbial equivalent to the screen door on a submarine. On the plus side, since they do absolutely nothing to prevent airborne virus, herd immunity will grow even as the ignorant press wails about the growing number of positive cases.
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Swedens top epidemiologist said on Tuesday a rapid decline in new critical COVID-19 cases alongside slowing death rates indicated that Swedens strategy for slowing the epidemic, which has been widely questioned abroad, was working.
The list of CEOs and their businesses is available at the link.
That list explains a lot.
Masks might work in a lab, with sneezing champions and UV lights and controlled atmosphere. But in real life, with real people, infected and not, masks or not?
Well, why not do Randomized Controlled Trials with said people and find out? That what counts, right?
Right?
Oh look, they’ve been doing them for over 40 years, many countries, peer reviewed studies, published papers. Over and over again. Results?
Masks. Don’t. Work.
“A review of the peer-reviewed medical literature examines impacts on human health, both immunological, as well as physiological. The purpose of this paper is to examine data regarding the effectiveness of facemasks, as well as safety data. The reason that both are examined in one paper is that for the general public as a whole, as well as for every individual, a risk-benefit analysis is necessary to guide decisions on if and when to wear a mask.”

This is all so ridiculous. Open everything up, no restrictions. If you want this to be over, this is the way.
Oh, and testing someone without symptoms and then calling them a “case” is ridiculous.....never before in the history of medicine has someone without symptoms been a “case”.
Is there some rule in Florida that prohibits you from wearing a mask? We’ve been telling people to wear masks for months now, did the CEOs miss it? I understand that counties in Florida are allowed to mandate masks, and they have.
In our state, our governor has decided our real problem is the kids. As they got tired of “peacefully protesting”, they all went to the beach, where, having been told that protests couldn’t possibly spread a virus, they assume they have no virus, and that hanging out with people is safe.
So they are not wearing masks, and are spreading the virus that they picked up at the protests to all the workers in the area. The rest of Virginia is doing great.
Cases are not rising in FL.
