Are you talking about a mask or a parachute because a mask offers about as much protection against Covid as it would wearing one when you jump out of an airplane. Or have you forgotten the "ex-spurts" opinions that masks Do Not Protect You but are designed to protect others. And yet you continue to believe every word these buffoons put out.

Your funny mandatory vaccinations
Ask my friend who was vaccinated in March that is lying in the hospital very sick with Covid what he thinks

Case in point....maybe if he wore a mask he wouldn't of caught it, or if the government had made vaccine mandatory sooner. How many more of our "friends" will it take before people stop being so righteous....so sad, hope he gets better.

The mask wouldn't have helped him, but getting the vaccine surely would have

Yesterday, someone posted the mother of all surveys, something done by The Economist a few days back. Huge! I'm about halfway done reading it,

Anyway, the results of this survey seem to bear out what you say about Fauci. Those who trust him and those who mistrust him seem more or less equally divided, with a slight predominance of the numbers on the "trust" side.

We've come to a sad state of affairs in America, and I think this is symptomatic of it, in part anyway. No matter what a government official says or does, a large percentage of the people will reject it simply because it is a government official saying or doing it. According to a Pew poll taken in July 2019, only 22% of Americans have a high level of trust in the government, and given that that poll was taken before COVID, I think that that number is probably a lot smaller today.

We're light-years removed from the days of Uncle Walter and The Loyal Opposition.

If by “exact science” you mean absolute, there is no such entity. Remember: even a scientific law can have exceptions, be proven wrong, or evolve over time.

Did you hear about the guy who jumped off the Empire State building without a parachute? About a foot of the ground he thought 99.99% of the way down and still doing OK.
Enjoy your mask free, vax free existance; there is a cure for stupid.

and you and those like you are the reason for the problems we are facing now. when the mask mandate was lifted for VACCINATED people, you just tossed any you had away and have gone about your life with no regard for others--because there was no way of telling which people were vaccinated. so the delta variant had many people to infect and has done so and Florida is a cesspool again. You've probably been lucky because within the Villages itself, many people have been vaccinated. but with all the family visiting, that may change. with freedom comes responsibility.

I once heard that expecting a mask to stop the COVID bug is like expecting your underwear to stop a fart.

FINALLY!
Something all can relate to regardless of any and all persuasions.

Except the better analogy is when the fart is carried on a piece of s***

No one had any experience or scientific studies on COVID before it became our everyday existence. I had the vaccine and I wear a mask. My decision is based on the fact I will do what I need to do to not make others ill. COVID and the variants are new for everyone hence why guidance is always changing. I would hate to think I made a child ill, a family lose a loved one, if I could have done something as simply as wearing a mask. So I am uncomfortable for a few minutes. I would rather do that then the unthinkable

How do you explain the 10's of millions who have neither been vaccinated and don't wear a mask and still don't get sick????

I haven't had a flu shot in over 50 years and yet I haven't gotten the flu in all that time. I left New England over 8 years ago and while I used to get 2 or 3 colds a year I've yet to have one here in Florida. Please explain.

How do you explain the hundreds of millions not vaccinated and no mask who did get covid. How do you explain the 600,000 deaths in the US from covid. How do you explain the people who were vaccinated, did not wear a mask and got covid, albeit a milder case due to their vaccination. Wearing a mask also protects others from you when you start shedding virus because you are sick and go out in public. Masks protect those who can not be vaccinated. Masks protect the CHILDREN who can not yet get the vaccine. Do you hate humanity that much????

If you trust your god-given immune system then why are you taking vitamin C, D, zinc, and quercetin? Stop wasting money. god gave you the immune system you should have, no need to try and strengthen it. It is exactly as strong as god wants it to be.

And forget treatment. If god wants you to get sick, then man up and take the sickness.
