Are there really people who don't believe in wearing the mask?

[homie1975]

do you guys thinks the 2 dollars masks works??

cdc director robert redfield is telling everyone to mask up and we can get COVID under control within 8 weeks.

anything is better than nothing. i wear two of those 2 dollar masks, one right on top of the other. if i am feeling rather frisky, i wear three of them.

Imagine telling the plague doctor that in 2020 people feel liberally oppressed because they were asked to wear a medical mask in pandemic

Another week for me and another week mask free

I LOL at all those dumb fukks at the grocery store wearing thier face diapors and thinking they're protected

I'm thinking about running a couple of laps around the building so when I go in I can breath a little extra hard.

I am not looking to get into a debate with you kid. You are a very powerful and prolific poster who has made his viewpoint crystal clear.

If you have a minute or two, take a look at the virus and its affect in Vietnam. I am going out on a limb and saying they don`t have more than $2 to spend on a huge percentage of their masks. The country went EARLY and full out social distancing and masks as well as Q-ing any clusters.

They're protecting you. Thank them silently.

Personally ( just personally), I know people who have been huge advocates of wearing a mask (and overall finger pointing) who have caught Covid and nobody who is against masks who has caught it. I am not saying masks need to be worn or not- just that you ought to give this guy a break. Your logic may be faulty on this one. Just because he boasted about not wearing a mask doesn't necessarily mean anything on the 'Darwin' scale.

[capitalist pig]

Just for a example, today in Florida where I live the city council passed a ordinance saying “all employees of all businesses in the city limits must wear masks while at work “.

Yet customers don’t have to but it’s strongly recommend. Is that fuked up or what

I’m making no judgement on wearing masks that’s a personal choice but if cities are going to pass ordnance’s it’s got to be for all or none jmo

Yeah, that's absurd. I guess they think they have some pull to coerce business but don't in terms of the general public. It can't be reconciled from a public health perspective.

Identify yourself.

I was curious about this very thing so I started a public Poll a couple of months back. That poll can be found here:

https://www.sportsbookreview.com/forum/players-talk/3604523-when-you-go-grocery-shopping-do-you-wear-mask.html

The people who voted NO meaning... they don't wear a mask to the grocery store include...

• b1slickguy,
• Bcatswin,
• BIGDAY,
• carolinakid,
• DrunkHorseplayer,
• Eddy Munny,
• Emily_Haines,
• grease lightnin,
• gummo,
• hawkwind,
• louisvillekid,
• MrSink,
• pabonaparte,
• PaperTrail07,
• POISON,
• Razorbacks1,
• teecee,
• unlearn,
• unluckysob,
• zam77

I should mention that there were several people that said they only wear masks because some stores require them.

[Booya711]

Looks like a list of winners to me....I only wear one because it’s required by law. Government is a joke...Government news should be moved to comedy central

[carolinakid]

i wear one now to the grocery store and other public places in nc, because it the law

[hehfest]

Ya'll sure it is a law? Did it go through the legislature in your state or in the US House or Senate? Because Governors CANNOT MAKE LAWS. They can not use an Executive Order as law. 100% UNCONSTITUTIONAL!

Better go back to junior high and check the books folks!

Ya'll are dumb fukkers today!

the same way they made laws kepting the gyms close too, we was going into phrase 3 this friday but the stupid gov cooper here in nc delayed it again for another 3 weeks......

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Gov. Roy Cooper on Wednesday issued a mandatory mask requirement across North Carolina and ordered a "pause" on easing any other restrictions as infections rates and the number of hospitalizations continue to climb.

Simple question. Has there been ANY evidence that shows that wearing a mask prevents the spread of covid?

doctors at the head of large organizations like the CDC (robert redfield) seem to think so. it keeps YOUR liquid droplets from your mouth and nose inside YOUR mask. less spread of liquid droplets = less infection.

these are extremely well trained scientists and doctors advising this.

now let's interject some common sense: if i am sick and don't know it, and i am speaking or sneezing or coughing (i think it is innocent but i am actually sick), would it NOT stand to reason that the mask keeping my droplets inside of it is a good thing?

again, let's interject common sense. saliva, mucus, air from the mouth, all contains germs. if those germs stay in your mask, you are protecting OTHERS

Who are you referring to?

Your post below was crystal clear.

I get most of mine delivered via Instacart and when I greet them to take possession they immediately set it down and run to their vehicle, i'm not wearing a mask, you'd think that I was JJ the way they run away.

I have to agree with that.

Seems obvious to me. Does it prevent 100% of virus that might eminate from you? Of course not. But if it prevents 90-95% of what would otherwise project into the air or on someone, that makes a massive difference. And if everyone who might spread to someone else did that, it would damn near wipe this thing away in a matter of weeks. And that's basically what's happened in many countries. But most Americans either don't believe science or can't be bothered, so here we are.

Another Scientific Technical Report On Masks Stating They Don't Work - Many Scientific Papers To Consider

https://www.rcreader.com/sites/defau...0policy%22.pdf

Do you have an updated version of this? It's from April.

My link is from yesterday... debunking your 3 month old link. I know it won't change your mind but... here's the link anyway https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/b...-pseudoscience

This mask stuff isn't that hard to figure out. It's not a cure... not at all. But will it slow down the spread? Have you ever been sneezed on? Ever?

If I said to you... I will give you $10,000 if you let a complete stranger sneeze in your face... oh btw... if you want you can have them put on a mask first. Would it matter to you whether or not they wore a mask?

Let's assume that it only helps reduce spread by 5 or 10%(actual studies are far higher). Some people might say.. that's barely even anything at all! But think about this... if anyone could beat the sportsbooks by 5 to 10% consistently they would be my hero! This means... 5% to 10% is HUGE in terms of cases and deaths. But we just don't see it directly... so we pretend that it's not real.

For some people it's easier to think in terms of money. If you could do something really simple and instantly increase your income by 10% would you do it? When taking out a loan... do the numbers 5 or 10% mean anything to you? How about CC's*? How about savings? Now these numbers are important to most people. So.. if wearing a mask still helps by as little as 5%... it's still worth it.

No offense but this doctor, Denis G. Rancourt, PhD, is exceptinally biased in his viewpoints. He is a researcher for Ontario Civil Liberties Association. His purpose for writing the paper was to state masks do not work, regardless of scientific fact. If he was in the Anti-H2O Association he would have written a paper that water is not wet.

Using this article as proof would be like saying CNN/Fox are honest and unbiased in their reporting of the news.
I think a more unbiased source is warranted to prove your point.

The Gov of NC signedf an order, executive order or what ever saying mask were mandatory. Just like all the executive orders your scumbag president has signedf also, their not laws either.

True but if there a chance wearing mask helps why not just do it? I dunno whether it works but certainly can’t hurt, and really not a big deal. I wouldn’t want to wear it outside but they havnt really asked that.

Wrong. Wearing a mask CAN hurt in numerous ways.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Do you wear seatbelts? Do you have a gun permit? There's a price for freedom. It ain't free.

Unfortunately, the government has to make common sense laws to protect dumb asses. Not wearing a mask around other people is irresponsible and dumb but you still haven't got the memo?
