The misinformation war is real

[newbiehunter]

If people want to wear a mask that's their business and none of ours. If restaurants require proof of immunization it's their choice and they don't owe us an explanation. Our choice is whether to eat there or not.

How is this about mis information?

"Logically, If we allow "private business" to discriminate against folks with no vax passport - we should allow them to discriminate against every other minorities based on the same moral grounds - my business, my choice' " quote newbiehunter


Hmmm Good point. So what is the difference now that makes a business owner able to post rules concerning covid? ( Of course they can still say, "No shirt, No shoes." = no entrance.)

Well. In this case they also post some rules that a lot of people will find offensive..

The main difference is - in my example, the business will get sued, whereas in your case - nothing will happen legally.

Masks do work!!!!! Like anything it comes down to human error. Is the person wearing it properly, is it the right mask, etc. unless I’ve missed something, doctors and surgeons wear masks to prevent virus/germ spread.

You've missed it. Surgical masks are only to prevent spit and mucous from contaminating sterile surfaces and open wounds the only way to stop transmission of viruses in a closed environment is through negative ventilation. Maybe I missed something please post a link that shows masks work against viral spread.

Masks worked for us when my youngest daughter brought covid home from a friends house. She mostly isolated in her room, but when she had to be around us, she and we wore masks and we never caught it and my wife has asthma as well.

The mask debate just cracks me up.
No filters are 100%. But all filters work to some level depending on how fine they are

The pro group seems to think they will solve all the world’s problems

The anti group continues to claim they do absolutely nothing

Again the reality is they are somewhere in the middle and there are 1000’s of variables that change their effectiveness

I never agreed with the mandate for them but also think they can help and should be wore by those at risk in some situations

But to write them off as absolutely useless is as niave as thinking they are perfect

Go make a drip coffee without a filter and tell me again that filters don’t work to some level?

With the mandate going away very soon you won’t need to worry about it anymore but keep your opinion to yourself when you see someone wearing one at their own choice

And vice versa if someone is not wearing a mask. It's entirely up to them in those places where it is not required.

Individual businesses may decide to maintain a mask requirement which is their right. Those who object to the requirement should take their business elsewhere without causing a scene or berating front-line staff. Same with restaurants that continue to require proof of immunization.

X2 -Great reply!
Totally agree.



Now-i am not anti masker,and do not want to make a negative twist :but all those great minds,and all those "leaders"who enacted-enforced AND pushed the masks for 2 years ,would need to STRIKE out from their resume the " friend of environment" clause.
Pushing masks every where ,every time,and for everyone ,created a Mount Everest of face mask garbage.

No one talks about it....................how convenient.

8 billion pplx x 0.33(maybe 1/3 wore masks a day-safe bet )= 2.5 billion masks a day
2.5 billion x 365 days x 2 years(and then some more ).= about 2 TRILLION masks in garbage.

(About 1 million tons of artificial fiber-if we estimate 100 mask to be 1 lbs.)
1 million tons!!!

Two faced ,eye rolling ,hypocrite environmentalists of the world(not mentioning names and Organizations)-where were all of you too?

I believe that almost every person knows that a mask will stop something, it is a membrane that is porous and will stop most particles that are bigger then the holes/perforations in the mask. We use filters in our furnace and they stop the majority of dust from recirculating in the home, but not small things like bacteria or virus unless a HEPA style.
I equate these mask mandates to someone farting in a snowmobile suit or coveralls with longjohns underneath. You will still crop dust yourself and those around you, and as far as I know a fecal molecule or fart is a lot bigger then a virus molecule. So how well do you think that mask will do stopping the virus when it doesn't stop **** from going up your nose????
