I think she is pretty old also, right?

How dumb can some people be not to take easy, but necessary steps to help themselves??

I've been waiting 9 months for an answer to that question.

It's not as easy as it seems

The picture up there is evidence of that

Just for the sake of argument, let's assume that we're not really sure if masks do anything. There was an article in the NEJM today looking at Marine recruits - a controlled study of 3000 recruits, some of whom obey the "rules" and some didn't. The rate of test positivity was the same in both groups.

But, to my way of thinking, it's not that clear. Perhaps, just perhaps, they do make a difference. The inconvenience of wearing a mask is insignificant, and don't give me that "I can't breathe with a mask on BS." FFS, I wore a mask every day from 1977 to 2016 - for hours at at time. You deal with it, and you get used to it.

So, when I watch the asshat brother of Governor Cuomo preaching about masks (although he didn't wear one on his bike ride while supposedly in "quarantine") and put it against this video of the Senior Senator from California, I can't help but think...what the hell???

Exactly!! You said my thoughts!!

Wearing a mask is an insignificant ‘burden’.

The battle cry of certain people was "wear the mask!".

That battle cry was used by the same people and in the same way as the battle cry "Hate Trump!".

The mask is a battle cry, not a pandemic management device.

It is treated like any other political battle cry.

Give it some lip service and reap the mantle of virtue.

@Copper is the opposite of that true?

People who said , “I love President Trump” were less likely to wear a mask?

Obviously
