    Masks seem to be an issue limited to the US and political philosophy? Do I have that right?

    I am not weighing in on mask effectiveness but understanding the origins and extent of anti masking.

    BTW here is an interesting study. Figure 3 is easiest understand at a glance, but some of the tables and conclusions provide more detail:

      I am a wealthy, well educated, good looking Trump supporter.

      Education is extremely important.

          Assuming they wear them, why would masks not work for young kids if they work for adults?

              I don't like engaging in piss fights over who's got the biggest dick (for the record.....)... But while you ( the collective "you") can call me an asshole, tell me I'm stupid, whatever..... do NOT ever talk down to me. And 89th, you can dress this pig up any way you want, you were talking down .

                Well, I'm not particularly wealthy nor am I good looking.

                But I could probably kill you in less than three seconds and I know I could have you butchered and in a plastic drum in less than three minutes.

                    A central Texas school system shutdown after two staff members died of COVID-19.

                    This may be the first of many as more K-12 public schools reopen after Labor Day.

                      Well stud duck, what ya gonna do? Close the schools? Let the kids fall further behind? Teach them all remotely and let them fail?

                      Socially isolate them and have them turn out like you?πŸ˜›πŸ˜›

                        The Friday Night football game is still on so it’s just a partial closure.

                            Umm, I can make a pretty good guess on that answer.

                              I wouldn't. While the deaths are overwhelmingly unvaccinated, there are some who are. I know of a few, personally. They're burying a 55 year-old down the road from me today...Saw the hearse about 30 minutes ago...
