When I wear a Facemask I am helping to protect you. If you don't wear a facemask, you are are only concerned about one person. I wear a three layered mask. First layer is cloth, followed by a filter and then another piece of cloth. If I cough, it greatly reduces the distance my spital travels. If you cough, without a mask, your spital travels a much longer distance.

I found this video that demonstrates the different layers vs. no mask.

High speed camera captures how different types of face masks work - YouTube

It’s literally filled with people they don’t trust

Not really because that is 90% political BS (note I said 90%), but the US (and local governments) should restrict ALL UNVACCINATED people whose medical history we do OR don't know from local restaurants, stores, rec centers, movie theaters, airplanes, cruises, buses and shows, sports arenas etc. It should restrict them from classrooms, public buildings and from anything else that will make our kids or grandparents or US sick. If the illegal immigrants who are unvaccinated are so awful because they allegedly spread covid all over the place why should those plain old unvaccinated "real Americans" be treated any better for doing the exact same thing?

Paste in your browser. Can't tell if this guy is 'an outlier.' He sure sounds like he has a lot of knowledge on the subject. GAME CHANGER.
LMAO. Yes, if it's on Twitter and originally posted by Sebastian Gorka it has to be the truth!

Because they are Americans citizens a fact that seems to escape some. Even the Washington Post now decries the mess at the Southern border. Sweden a liberal country as well as every other major country has secure borders. Of course we can’t let in the refugees from Cuba says the head immigration honcho. Hmm!!! Failed leadership in the rollout this year, mixed messages, exceptions for the elite. A real mess.

Ahh, I see. It's OK for unvaccinated American Citizens to infect other American people because we're Amercans. Got it. Thanks for clearing that up. The other stuff is all political crap.I don't care about Sweden, my grand-kids don't live there.

HUH? What does that have to do with the price of pistachio nuts in Turkey on Thanksgiving? Please translate as your comment sounds like Tonto talking to the Lone Ranger :D . I wasn't blaming anyone. The post I initially responded to was. This place is getting nuttier by the hour. We all have way too much free time. ;)

Thanks for the vid. It adds some reality to Dr Stock.
One thing that became apparent from the vids is the vaccine does not protect you from Covid; It does protect you from very bad Covid symptoms. So you can still get Covid if you are vaccinated. Just the symptoms won't be as bad as if you were not vaccinated. Certainly each individual should consult their physician regarding getting the vaccine. As well, if a person chooses not to get the vaccine, we should not shame/bully them - it is a personal choice, same as getting the flu vaccine. Like the flu, I believe Covid is here to stay. The new normal is what you see in public today.

Wife went to the brownwood ER on 44 yesterday morning. Fast service out in 3 hours. Next door neighbor went to Leesburg hospital emergency had surgery and is definitely staying at least overnight so I can tell you that it seems the hospitals around here still take customers. It's not a good time to get sick, go to the dentist or do anything elective. I would definitely hold off going into a place full of sick people

I wear masks at the airport and on the plane because I have to and that is it. I have been flying all over the country for work for several months. I have also been to the doctors and the dentists here and neither required a mask.
I am certainly not living my life in fear or restricting my movements. We all live on borrowed time. I am not staying home waiting to die. If covid gets me, so be it, but I dont want to regret not going to the beach.

Very wise Grasshopper! You are spot on ! I love it

There are many more tourists and snowbirds coming into Florida and we don't check their vaccine status, not all new cases are driven by legal/illegal immigration.

It big Pharm they don’t trust………with cause. Big Pharm has lied and mislead doctors and people for 40 years. Can you say opium crisis and hormone replacement. Can you say Wuhan labs. So my question to you is why do you trust them. Follow the money and you will find your truths.

It puts a hitch in my little plans to feel nice and no one likes to give a cold to someone else................

So. Do you think that living your life without fear is going to up your odds for catching the Delta Variant? It is VERY contagious and I already know of several Villagers who have caught it by being at rec centers.

So put aside the government. It looks like folks from both sides are catching this bug, even if they are vaccinated. How sick are they? Do you or I want to risk catching something that we can avoid????
You do realize that vax people are spreading the virus like wild fire.
