    I had surgery on Monday. The law required me to wear a mask in the waiting room. They had free ones if you needed one.

    When they called me back, I went through the doors going from the waiting room to where the medical staff and the operating rooms were. No one, not even the doctors, were wearing a mask. They promptly removed mine.

      I saw a video on YouTube showing how utterly useless the masks are. 99% of what comes out of your mouth just blows straight through the mask as if it wasn't even there.

      If people want to wear one, fine. If they don't want to wear one, fine. The mask doesn't help anyway. But don't dare jump someone's ass for not wearing one. The mask has become a political tool at the hands of the Left. Nothing more.

      Wonder why so many docs and nurses are wearing them, then.

      They are wearing N95 masks, not homemade cloth masks.

      It's not recommended that the general public purchase N95 masks because they are needed for the first responders.

      If you have an N95 mask, wear it. If you don't, the homemade variety are just feel good.

        Well, if it says so on Youtube, then it's likely true.

              Ditto.

              I also have a cloth mask with filter slot. Hepa filter.

              They do work if you know what and how to use.

                We know that these viral particles will still go through a cloth mask. Both ways... It's the distance they will travel that's greatly reduced.

                  I really don't see the point of wearing anything if the numbers are being inflated to create a false sense of panic. I mean if it's all just freedom-robbing bullshit anyway I think the best thing to do is to start going to some ballgames and making fun of the mask-wearers. Right?

                      I doubt that the folks against seat belt laws considered it a slippery slope. I think they just didn't want to be required by law to wear a seat belt. I suppose it's the same for masks.

                        What's the endgame for people that are demanding that hairdressers and tattoo parlours open up because not being able to use them is more than they can stand, and they're AMERICANS, DAMMIT!

                        As far as I can tell, most of them still have pretty horrible haircuts even after they've had it cut, so what's the freaking point?

                        I was only joking

                          Sometimes I wish people would just wear masks to stop them from talking so much.
