It's been known since early in the pandemic that cloth masks offer very little protection. Further research has confirmed this.

If u weren't aware, it's because the entire world was engaged in a mass conspiracy to not tell you. Sorry you had to find out this way.

masks don’t work for airborne pathogens. That’s why we wear respirators that filter airborne pathogens.

If the government doesn't want us to spread the corona virus, why
didn't they have people wear space suits, if you don't want to take the
vaccine. But wait, the vaccine doesn't prevent people from getting
or spreading the virus, but we still must get the vaccine.

What about the people who already had covid and have natural immunity.

One doctor on Fox said we should be screening for immunity instead
of forcing to take vaccines.

I had covid and should have natural immunity, but Biden said that I might
die from covid since I'm not vaccinated.

It's my understanding that CA does not promote therapeutics for covid.
It's just vaccine, vaccine and more vaccine, even if you had covid.

The Feds want us to wear masks and control our activity forever.
But the red states have moved on while the blue states continue
to push the narrative that they don't want people to die so we have
the right to control your activities by forcing mask and vaccine mandates.

... and meanwhile, the red states have more deaths per capita, especially since June when virtually everyone had the opportunity to get fully vaccinated (one shot J&J or 2 shots Moderna and Pfizer).

Facts don't lie....

"The true explanation is straightforward: The vaccines are remarkably effective at preventing severe Covid, and almost 40 percent of Republican adults remain unvaccinated, compared with about 10 percent of Democratic adults.

"As a result, Covid deaths have been concentrated in counties outside of major metropolitan areas. Many of these are in red states, while others are in red parts of blue or purple states, like Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Virginia and even California.

"This situation is a tragedy, in which irrational fears about vaccine side effects have overwhelmed rational fears about a deadly virus. It stems from disinformation — promoted by right-wing media, like Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News, the Sinclair Broadcast Group and online sources — that preys on the distrust that results from stagnant living standards."

I love my little face diaper!
Wear it in my car
Wear it at the bar
Wear it while I sleep
Like a good little sheep.

Everybody needs to wear a mask
Adults
Pre-adults
Mask the unborn, just in case
Mask the dead too so they don't catch Covid and die again
Disinter the cemeteries and make them wear masks
Genetically modify the species
So that we're born wearing masks

Mask your asshole
Just in case you fart covid

300 million tested cases on a planet with 7 billion people?
Given that infections are undercounted by a factor of 8 -10
That means that more than 2.5 billion have been infected
And didn't notice the momentous occasion
Who says natural immunity doesn't work?

I know this might be a difficult concept for some right wingnuts to comprehend but …ITS NOT ALWAYS ALL ABOUT YOU. The main benefit of cloth masks is that they protect *others* from the likely coVid contaminated droplet spray that inevitably travels far and wide every time a MAGAmaniac starts to loud talk the evils of Jenner and Pasteur. We get it. Not only do these people love germs unmediated by any kind of scientific medical advancement but they *also* love to spread them all around. Two thumbs up! 🤪

Not very well said as according to the doctor in the clip, cloth masks are little more than face decorations and provide NO protection. By the way, that doctor is hardcore left. So either you’re saying she is wrong or you’re saying that even people on the left believe that cloth masks don’t work. Either way, it debunks your post.

Ya know it's completely idoitic to imply that this has been about control. If anything COVID has been a test that most had failed.

Its not about control just be cool, shut the hell up, wear the mask and get a shot. Easy shit. I had worn a neck gaiter the entire pandemic not a big deal at all. It's not even a problem. Yes it's annoying dealing with it or what place imposes it.. or overzealous people telling you to wear a mask,, yeah it's annoying but it's also just be fucking cool keep living life keep your head on straight.

This entire experience has not been an issue for me never got covid, never got a test, kept living life, never lost my mind to stupidity but a lot of people did failed the test.

@Alexis-Except you are completely wrong...viruses spread through aerosol transmission & only low infectious dose is needed. The main transmission path is long-residence-time aerosol particles (< 2.5 μm), which are too fine to be blocked, and the minimum-infective dose is smaller than one aerosol particle.

I can post over 20 studies from around the world proving this, or you can do your own experiment..Try this and let me know what happens. And don't lie, I already know the results. Put on a mask, lift the mask and with a vape take a normal inhale and replace the mask, now exhale and tell us what happens. I'll remind you that people that vape are inhaling water vapors, whether they are flavored or not, and upon exhaling you’ll see there is 99% amount of vapor let through the mask.

You need a medical degree to understand basic physics...?

Hmm..okay I’ll try this again..So if the virus is .125 microns and N95 masks have pore holes of .3 microns and surgical masks have pore holes ranging from 16 to 140 microns and droplets around .2 microns can be atomized and have a hang time in cloud form for 6-40 hours and almost no one having sealed eye protection and ya do the math and really think about it then ask what viral load do you need to catch covid ?

Okay buddy, please explain how masks work if the virus SARS-CoV-2 has a diameter of 60 nm to 140 nm [nanometers (billionth of a meter),while medical and non-medical facemasks’ thread diameter ranges from 55 µm to 440 µm [micrometers (one millionth of a meter), which is more than 1000 times larger. So due to the difference in sizes between SARS-CoV-2 diameter and facemasks thread diameter (the virus is 1000 times smaller), SARS-CoV-2 can easily pass through any facemask. In addition, the efficiency filtration rate of facemasks is poor, ranging from 0.7% in non-surgical, cotton-gauze woven mask to 26% in cotton sweeter material. With respect to surgical and N95 medical facemasks, the efficiency filtration rate falls to 15% and 58%, respectively when even small gap between the mask and the face exists.


Explain to all of us exactly how a masks stops viral transmission

I’ll wait



Surely you’ll deliver

IDK why people think COVID-19 particles passing through masks is like a hot-dog in a hallway, it's not. It's more akin to golf balls (or insert your own balls) through wire/chain-link fence. Some will pass through the holes and some won't.

Masks were never 100% effective, it's only a layer of defense. Did logic not think of that?

And no, one can't use water (insert small particle) with the wire/chain-link fence analogy unless you scale down the barrier as well. For example, water through a filtration media will allow water to pass, but the media will dam up the water behind it as well.

So some of you hate CNN, except when one woman misspeaks a little bit, then you take it as gospel. SMH. Cloth masks are less effective than respirators or 3-ply masks, but better than no mask obviously.

But not that YOU care. You just want an excuse to rage at the liberals because you need a scapegoat. Any excuse would do, even when it's proven propaganda cooked up at Chinese and Russian farms.

No, lockdowns did not help.

“In  98% of the comparisons using 87 different regions of the world we found no evidence that the number of deaths/million is reduced by staying at home.”

Link 1

In fact they did FAR more HARM than good..

Because of lockdowns
• People Suffering from Other Diseases

◦ 1.4 million additional tuberculosis deaths due to lockdown disruptions
◦ 500,000 additional deaths related to HIV
◦ Malaria deaths could double to 770,000 total per year
◦ 65 percent decrease in all cancer screenings
◦ Breast cancer screenings dropped 89 percent
◦ Colorectal screenings dropped 85 percent
◦ Projected increase in cancer deaths, including up to 16.6 percent increase in colorectal cancer deaths, 9.5 percent increase in breast cancer deaths, and 5.4 percent increase in lung cancer deaths over the next 5 years
◦ 75 percent decrease in suspected cancer referrals in the UK
◦ At least 1/3 of excess deaths in the U.S. are already not related to COVID-19
◦ Widespread disruption of access to health care in the UK, disproportionately for poor individuals
◦ Increase in cardiac arrests but decrease in EMS calls for them
◦ 38% decrease in heart disease-related treatments
◦ 33% drop in heart attack patients, 58% drop in stroke patients
◦ Significant increase in stress-related cardiomyopathy during lockdowns
◦ 15,000 additional non-COVID Alzheimer’s deaths (as of June – likely much higher now)


• Starvation and Food Insecurity
◦ 168k child hunger deaths predicted in Africa
◦ As many as 12,000 additional hunger deaths expected per day globally due to lockdown disruptions, up to 6,000 children
◦ World Food Programme sees an 82% increase in food insecurity
◦ 132 million additional people in sub-Saharan Africa are projected to be undernourished due to lockdown disruptions
◦ More than 50 million people living in America, including 17 million children, are likely to experience food insecurity by the end of the year
◦ UNICEF is having to feed UK children for the first time
◦ 2 million Filipino families are starving because of lockdowns, at levels “never seen before”
◦ UN warns that the famine and lockdown fallout in 2021 will be catastrophic


• Effects on Children
◦ Study estimates up to 2.3 million additional child deaths in the next year from lockdowns
◦ Lockdowns are fueling child labor, including in commercial sex exploitation, mining, and tobacco production
◦ Up to 104% increase in new HIV infections among children
◦ Millions of girls have been deprived of access to food, basic healthcare, and protection and thousands exposed to abuse and exploitation
◦ FGM increases in Africa, setting back previous widespread efforts to end FGM
◦ An estimated 13 million more child marriages
◦ Teen pregnancy up in many countries
◦ Low-income students are suffering in online classes, widening inequality
◦ School closures leading to a disproportionate increased health, social and economic divides between low and high-income families
◦ School closures in the US decreased reported child abuse by 27 percent
◦ Billions of days of lost education worldwide
◦ Decreased access to healthcare
◦ Anxiety and stress from stay-at-home orders
◦ Sharp rise in eating disorders among children
◦ Child abuse reports increased 34% in Ireland between March and December


• Domestic/Sexual Abuse
◦ Domestic violence reports have skyrocketed (another source here)
◦ Up to 70% decrease in reports of child abuse to CPS early in lockdown
◦ Male victim domestic abuse calls increased by 60% in the UK
◦ Domestic abuse becomes more severe during lockdowns


• Economy and Poverty
◦ 150 million people forced into extreme poverty
◦ 8 million Americans pushed into poverty – largest increase in US history
◦ Half of lower-income Americans report household job or wage loss due to lockdowns
◦ A year of lockdowns has destroyed a decade of progress in helping the world’s poor – particularly in children
◦ Shutdowns cause disproportionate number of evictions for Black and Latino tenants
◦ School closures are causing many detrimental second-order economic effects
◦ Lockdowns drive homelessness in NYC to record levels
◦ Over 110,000 US restaurants permanently closed
◦ Unemployment tripled among young Americans, 52% now live with their parents
◦ 2 million UK families have been pushed into poverty
◦ NYC bankruptcies are up 40% compared to a year ago (as of September)
◦ Half of European small and medium businesses say they will face bankruptcy in the next year
◦ New Zealand lockdowns pushed 70k children into poverty
◦ 90% of New Zealanders who lost their jobs were women
◦ Thousands of Aucklanders turn to food banks – there are now 29 registered food banks in Auckland; prior to COVID there were less than 5
◦ Up to 500,000 fewer births in the U.S. will create severe economic hardship for childcare and child-related services and products


• Mental health
◦ 1 in 5 U.S. adults developed mental disorder

@itsmepatty-you are factually wrong on everything you post. I explained it to you using basic physics & posted over 20 Scientific Studies showing a mask has no effect on viral transmission.

Again..viruses spread through aerosol transmission & only low infectious dose is needed. The main transmission path is long-residence-time aerosol particles (< 2.5 μm), which are too fine to be blocked, and the minimum-infective dose is smaller than one aerosol particle.
The reason workers in a virus lab wear moon suits, go through multiple sets of sealed doors with decontamination procedures before that suit is removed and breathe pressurized outside air while inside the lab is that these are facts and said virus -- any virus -- will go right through any "mask."

Don’t believe me..? Try this and let me know what happens. And don't lie, I already know the results. Put on a mask, lift the mask and with a vape take a normal inhale and replace the mask, now exhale and tell us what happens?

Answer: upon exhaling you’ll see there is 99% amount of vapor let through the mask.

Here is a doctor doing said experiment..

And we know the mask mandates never showed to Lowe case/deaths anywhere in the world.

“Masks Didn't Slow COVID Spread: New Study”

Link 2

“New findings reported Tuesday in a University of Louisville study challenge what has been the prevailing belief that mask mandates are necessary to slow the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus. The study notes that "80% of US states mandated masks during the COVID-19 pandemic" and while "mandates induced greater mask compliance, [they] did not predict lower growth rates when community spread was low (minima) or high (maxima)." Among other things, the study—conducted using data from the CDC covering multiple seasons—reports that "mask mandates and use are not associated with lower SARS-CoV-2 spread among US states."

There is always an easy solution to every problem - neat, plausible, and wrong.
