You are disputing points I didn’t make. You can’t see what I wrote.

I’m a real doctor. I don’t wear masks and neither do most of the doctors I know. When in surgery the mask is combined with a sterile field extensively draped off with just a small area exposed. the surgeon is gowned and gloves and NEVER touches the mask once in place. The mask is removed and discarded right after the procedure not put in their pocket or glove box to use again and again. Surgery is done in meticulously clean rooms with everyone wearing hospital laundered scrubs and with laminar airflow to reduce contamination. and most importantly with hands in a sterile field the surgeon cannot cover a cough or sneeze with a tissue then throw it away like everyone else. A far cry from the filthy ill fitting snot rages worn in the grocery store over and over again. it go ahead and kid yourself that the masks do something. Just don’t expect rational people to join you in your delusion

I wear one to keep my job because no nothing administrators have mandated them just like know nothing politicians. I would wear a mask for nothing but sterile procedures otherwise. Before you jump on that see my previous list about masks during surgery

except masks as worn by the public may actually increase the spread with everyone adjusting, taking the. in and off, reusing and wearing the. dirty and ill fit

You tough guys are wearing masks that are properly fit and designed to keep out the particles you are trying to filter. They actually offer you protection. Not so with face diapers

bacteria and larger particles. They cannot remove their hands from the sterile field to cover a cough or sneeze the way everyone else should be doing

I like masks because they discourage the disgusting practice of spitting. On other people of course. I haven’t worn one myself other than a half dozen times to comply with retail bullshit rules.

But, spitting is an actual risk of transmission because as anyone with a spitter in the family knows, it gets tracked in on shoes and dog paws, provides a culture for virus support and eventually gets on the clothes, hands and furniture.

Make spitting a felony.

Covering your cough and sneeze is sufficient....and if you wash your hands after covering your cough/sneeze, it is far more hygenic than a mask.

Make spitting a felony.

Make a Dr who won't prescribe HCQ+Zn to save lives or a governor who harasses doctors that do prescribe (and pharmacists that issue) - a felon with a minimum of FIVE years in hard labor.

Fruit flies do not travel on dogs nor fruit nor anything.

But they can be drawn by a gust of wind just as a micron size strand of RNA can be inhaled into the nose and mouth or penetrate the skin.

Masks are a tale of morons in this fight.

What is smart, appropriate, and effective is for the general population to take a preventive course of Hydroxychloroquine and Zinc (and Azithromycin or other prescription ordered antibiotic if symptomatic).

HCQ stops the coronavirus from progressing to COVID-19 which is not the virus, it is the disease.

COVID-19 = COrona Virus Infectious Disease #19.

The virus is not the disease.

Most Americans having the virus do not have the disease and never will.

But they will have developed antibodies which is a good thing

HCQ plus Zinc can stop the virus from progressing to a disease.

But leave an opportunity to develop antibodies leading the general population to develop Herd Immunity which is a good thing.

Masks are moronic. They do not stop the virus from entering through the skin reaching the lymph and blood and traveling to the pneumocytes.

But HCQ and Zinc stop the virus from doing damage.

No to masks.

Yes to HCQ + Zn.

Droplet transmission occurs when someone sneezes or coughs

Otherwise the transmission is aerosolized particles which are too small for a mask.

In other words, asymptomatic spread is not suppressed by wearing a mask.

YOU are the dumbass

A flea can fit through a chain link fence but the dog it travels on cannot.

The flea will go thru the fence to get to the dog.....
