Masks are useless.

Correct.......But you need to be more specific. Masks with valves are useless for slowing the spread of the virus.

In the Sun this morning there was a note that some idiot called in a bomb threat for the store.

Hope they find whoever did this and throw the book at them.

Masks in public.

The video clearly demonstrates that masks most certainly do help to prevent droplets and aerosols from projecting into the air. It is those droplets and aerosols which contain THOUSANDS of virus particles.

Masks help stop spread of aerosol particles - YouTube

Do your part to slow the spread of this virus. Wear a mask!

Please don't tell anyone BUT I am a "Mask Denyer" and a "Climate Change Denyer". With an old FIFTY-THREE year degree in Chemistry, I know the real components of the Scientific Method - and neither masks or emotional factoids make any CONCLUSIVE sense. The hand-wringers and the environmental sheeple are wrong.

Did you watch the video I linked? What do you have to say about the content of the video?

I'm convinced with what I SEE on that linked video and many other videos that demonstrate how droplets and aerosols are blocked by masks.

catching covid 19 because they don’t wear a mask is trivial compared to catching someone with a frog on his lawn or beautiful landscaping in the villages right of way. community watch, watch is the operative word not do

So then you know that science is dynamic, not static. And that your 53-year degree is obsolete. 53 years ago, mankind could not create a black hole with a machine. Impossible, couldn't be done, no one would ever think of it. Fast forward to the last 20 years, and we have the tesla machine.

Also, mathematics - something you should've learned in school: a 53-year degree doesn't mean that you've received a degree for 53 years. It means you got one once, 53 years ago. What you did 53 years ago in college doesn't amount to a darned thing now. Kids entering college these days can run rings around your degree on their thumbs - you didn't have a calculator - they can recite pi to 100 decimal places backward in their sleep, and they're just freshmen.

Also - it's spelled denier. And people who use terms like sheeple are not to be taken seriously.
