wearing a mask and social distancing in public areas is such a minor inconvenience compared to overcrowding hospitals and shutting down the economy.

Anyone who did not want to wear a mask for those four weeks, could have stayed in their homes. Do you think that would have worked for us?

[quote=coffeebean;1793199]these are my thoughts about the shutting down of the economy. Between you, me and the lamp post, i honestly believe we could have not shut down the economy at all. What needed to be done (very early on) was for the government to mandate mask wearing in all public spaces, indoors and outdoors with very strict social distancing. If caught not adhering to these mandates, fine the offenders heavily.this should have been done for, at most, one month to be sure. Keeping the economy open, our economy would not have tanked and the curve would have flattened before it even rose.

I feel that agencies were doing what they thought best and don't blame anyone in particular, but the immense amount of scientific theories, misinformation, confusion, studies, and almost weekly changes, retractions and updates by health officials certainly contributed to COVID-19 fatigue and encouraged some people to no care or even believe anything. |

Our government FAILED US BIG TIME and I'm so disappointed in them! I can not say that enough and emphasize how important it was for them to give us the correct guidance early on in this pandemic. When we were finally told to cover our faces, they requested that Americans not purchase PPE that was meant for our first line responders and front line health care workers. That is why there were and are so many home made masks being worn. Americans knew what needed to be done and we did it!

I am so happy to hear this conversation on masks! Even the President said he likes the Lone Ranger look when he wears the mask. I haven’t seen him wear one yet but it would be a great example for all those mask phobic individuals. I think the more we learn about this virus the better we know how to control it.
