Clearly, those chimping out around the country Aren’t wearing masks. Why bother?

[cba123]

No.

Masks help. They really do.

by Ezekiel J. Emanuel, Steven Joffe, Christine Grady, David Wendler and Govind Persad
The idea of charging research subjects for their participation has been resurrected primarily by clinical researchers who are understandably frustrated with the shrinking budgets (in real dollars) of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) and other research sponsors. They propose to charge research participants as a way of funding studies that otherwise would not be conducted because of limited resources...

how deep is the swamp?

[servantboy777]

This is ridiculous. Went out to eat last evening with my wife and all the folks coming to eat (every other table) had no masks or gloves. All of the staff at the eatery did.

The wait staff were not changing their gloves after picking up and delivering folks food/spent plates so forth.

So ded-gum dumb. They'd be better off bare handed so they could at least warsh their hands or use sanitizer...but no, lets use the same gloves as we go about our work. lol

To be clear...I want them all to lay down the fear and resist being brainwarshed by all this. IT'S OVER FOLKS!

Now it's riots...get with the program. Riots, burn, loot, social unrest...no more social distancing..unrest!

Flu season is over. My mask is put away like it is the end of every flu season. My Pulmonary Specialist told me 10 years ago to wear one during flu season. It’s over.

I just finished a big order for a medical facility in Chattanooga and hopefully that’s the end of it. Not enough COVID here to matter. Still, I got something out of it. One of the patients brought me a 3X5 Trump flag that he got at a rally to thank me for making them and donating them. The facility was giving my masks to patients that didn’t have one of their own.

[Gnome1949]

I will not enter any business requiring a mask. Period.

The CDC and The New England Journal of Medicine have gone on record as saying masks are not effective for non-medical personnel to stop the spread of the virus in the community.

Stop the mask insanity !

[P.O.E.]

Masks seem to be the in-fashion for any occasion. Flu season, riot season.

[Old Yeller]

Time to unmask Antifa and it supporters (Soros, Clinton and Obama).

[MrBambaLaMamba]

The mask is not about safety or health.

the mask is about control.

[KevinB]

Democrats don’t care what you do as long as it’s mandatory.

[exDemMom]

In many cities and states across the nation, the number of Covid-19 cases are going down, yet the masking requirements are becoming more stringent.

This ranks right up there with the article I read once, where the writer said that "Despite record low rates of crime, prison populations are up."

Masks help to prevent people from spreading virus. With a disease that is contagious before symptoms appear, this is rather important. They wear masks in Asian countries whenever the threat of a disease becomes evident, and those countries have a lower burden of Covid-19 than the western countries. Hmm, could there be a connection?

[cyclotic]

I keep one in my pocket but it rarely gets worn.

We went to a ReOpen rally yesterday with about 250 others. Virtually no masks. One of the speakers was a public health expert with incredible credentials at the very high state and federal levels. He and I had a short side conversation that even included a handshake.

I also went to the local Home Depot twice and even had interactions with store associates, including a very long one. I didn’t wear a mask and they didn’t challenge me.

[thirst4truth]

We had a huge supply of N95 masks when this virus hit, we have had them for over 10 years. I wore one when out shopping which I did infrequently, for two months. An N95 was designed to keep out 95% of contaminants, it works for civilians.

We have had two cases in our county, no deaths. Now everybody is wearing a mask, not an N95 mask, but homemade jobs with different patterns and colors, fashion statements, super dumb and I am not participating anymore.

[Fiji Hill]

I haven’t seen any mention in the media of the danger to the environment of discarded masks, which I am increasingly seeing in parking lots and gutters. The environmentalists have been going crazy over plastic bags, which has resulted in their being banned in places like California. But discarded masks should pose an even greater threat because each one is contaminated with its previous owner’s germs.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I'm only wearing the mask to doctor's offices. Well and Walmart where you should always wear a mask. 😆

[vigilante2]

Masks are part of the plan

[lightman]

[keats5]

This seems like the year of masks.

Wear and/or don’t wear masks due to COVID.
Flynn unmasked- if he was ever masked.
Masked Antifa rioting in our streets.

I’ve had enough of masks.
