Then I suggest you and George Soros go with a fishnet mask.

Well, anti-maskers are posting selfies wearing useless netted masks to appear compliant with rules they don't agree with. I will not lose a minute of sleep, if one of these numbskulls has a severe health emergency, either a heart attack or a life threatening injury from an auto wreck and are denied use of an emergency room bed because the hospital system has been overwhelmed with critically sick COVID patients.

Why does $25 on White City get me higher quality and more enthusiastic head than 2 k in diamonds on Christmas gets me from my wife?

We've all been there.

Wives do not see their sexual participation as part of a business transaction. Also, you are not paying your wife to leave afterwards, either.

The sex worker market would be vastly different if wives had any idea how much they let their partner down by not being enthusiastic about their sex life and / or their husband's sexual needs. Many of us have pled, begged, washed the dishes, quit drinking, paid for the mortgage, listened intently to their every complaint about Life, gone to therapy, given Self Help books, etc.

Wives not being enthusiastic about a regular sex life is a problem that is thousands of years old, and yet here we are.

Still don't understand why the CDC and state governments don't highly insist on the N95 mask since the stats show it to be the most effective. What are they trying to do, not "offend" anyone?

Yes, any covering over the nose and mouth beats wearing nothing! The virus has been getting very clever lately in it's ability to recognize it's victim's political affiliation.

[Sgt Soros]

If you insist, then both you and your brother George Soros should definitely wear a cloth mask.

Thanks for the dissertation skimpy, we were not debating the effectiveness of cloth masks?

I will break down the game film here and translate into sheep language. Baa. Baa. Here it is quoted word for word.

"During a pandemic, cloth masks may be the only option available; however, they should be used as a last resort when medical masks (certified or KN95) and respirators are not available. Cloth mask use should not be mandated for healthcare workers, but some may choose to use them if there are no alternatives. ".

What does this mean? It means only morons, sheep, and people in third world settings (read poverty) should wear cloth masks. Why is that? Because it is all about air, air handling, filtration, and aerosoled virus. CDC says health care workers should not wear cloth masks (only as a last resort when nothing else is available). What is the air handling in a hospital in general, or in the Operating Room specifically? A hospital has 20 times an hour turnover of air, plus HEPA filtration, and our OR has 40 times per hour turnover with HEPA filtration. So the CDC says that in spite of that air handling (20 x and 40 x) and filtration, that cloth masks are only to be used as a last resort. Yes! In a high air turnover and HEPA filtered air environment cloth masks are only as a last resort when KN95 certified masks are not available. So that is a high air turnover and HEPA filtered environment that cloth masks ARE NOT to be used unless there is no alternative. So let's go to a crowded WalMart, Home Depot, Costco, Kroger, any retail store, etc. With their 4 times an hour air turnover and no HEPA filtration. How might that cloth mask work in that 4 x non-filtered environment when it will not make the grade in 20 x to 40 x with HEPA filtration? Incredibly poor is the answer.

The takeaway from this CDC article is that only morons, sheep, the uninformed, and the poor should wear cloth masks.

The effectiveness of protection from aerosol virus with a cloth mask can be as low as one percent or less.

KN95 can be 20 to 30 times more effective.

Would you even bother to buckle a seat belt that worked 1% or less of the time?

Cloth masks in a developed country are a sad waste of time and create a false sense of sheep security from the wolves.

If you are going to wear a mask, then get a KN95. I wear one. When one is not available I put on a cloth mask. Not because they work worth anything of value, just because I do not want to hear the mass Baa! Baa! From the sheep I encounter.

The only Soros that I want to see wear a cloth mask is the worthless billionaire and evil motherfucker George Soros.

Just for you....lol

You, like many others are proving what I am saying. We do not want to allow the medical and scientific community to have an honest discussion about the virus, treatment, and prevention. Too many want be sheep and follow the most scariest information. Last week a medical report came out from China showing that those who are asymptomatic have a 0. 31% chance of actually spreading it. Did that get very far in the US News Media. No. Those, like me and my family, who are blood type O are in the category who are least likely to catch it or suffer from it and based on that report from China, to pass it on. But it would not be fair to exclude certain groups of people, that would be bigotted. Plus, these very people you all want to worship are the same ones who jumped all over our President when he touted the science behind using Hydroxychloroquine as a treatment. Now that he lost the election, suddenly the AMA says it is not only safe but appears to be productive in treating or preventing COVID.

I can't help to wonder how much it true science and how much is political BS.

Yes, there is evidence that blood type has an impact on severity. And your point? What are you going to do - push a button and change your type? The same research does not indicate a decreased vulnerability to catching or spreading the disease to those who aren't as fortunate.

Look, this is an unknown variation of coronavirus, which means there are going to be questions. But what is undeniable is that the vast majority of those with those medical degrees you mention, like Fauci, agree on certain basics, including the benefits of wearing a mask and social distancing. For reasons in 20 years from now people won't understand ("let me get this straight. It was fine for private business or the government to require me to wear shirts, shoes, or even pants, but a mask during an epidemic was an attack on my liberty?), some people simply want to downplay this (leading to the mindset that produces what happened in Wisconsin, where a pharmacist intentionally spoiled vaccines, likely to discredit them).

And the sad thing, even beyond the deaths, amputations, lasting heart and lung problems, plus the billions spent on healthcare, is that a quick look at most other first world countries shows clear connections between better COVID control and better employment outcomes with fewer deaths (again, the US - 4% of world's population, 20% of COVID deaths).

What's pathetic is that you folks just won't admit you were wrong that COVID "was no more serious than the flu" and would disappear magically.

[PunkedLife]

They don't expect her to throw the police under the bus every chance she gets, and blame them before an investigation even takes place. They don't expect her to call for firings of officers who acted as per their training. This is why you see record number of APD resignations / retirements, leaving the force shorthanded. This is why you see officers calling in sick and ignoring calls and no longer willing to put their lives on the line for a mayor who not only won't back them, but will have them fired the first chance she gets. She's now reaping what she sowed.

Didn't really know any of this but you have a point if that's what she is like.

[ComTech42]

He claims to be a doctor and does not believe in the science of wearing a mask. Please!

Really? I think I'll stick with the health guidelines on mask wearing from the CDC, Epidemiologists and all the other Public health professionals.

Hell I am a Part Time Gynocologist, aren't we all? Masks recycle your own germs. Virus germs a sneaky little bastards. They are in the air
Waiting for you .

[AllTheTime]

So what you all are saying is that unless the 'Medical Professional' and "Scientist" agree with you then their education, experience, and knowledge are meaningless? That is neither scientific nor American. Being able to have a discussion of differing opinions and testing scientific endeavors is what is makes America great. Remember when you all were attacking using HydroxyCloriquine on COVID and not the AMA recently stated it may very well work for many people and worth using. Regardless of the fact that Fauci recommended it for COVID 1 15 years ago.

What about the scientific evidence that says people with O-Neg (first) and O-Pos (2nd) are the least likely to catch COVID and if they do are more likely to have little to no illness from it. What about the scientific evidence that the overwhelming people who catch it spent at least 10-15 minutes in close proximity with an infected person. We do not typically spend that long with anyone at a store or other large retail place.

Pathetic.
