It is important to note that the study looked exclusively at the protective effects of masks for the wearer, and not at the wearer’s ability to protect others.
As such, the study cannot be used to draw conclusions on the general merits of using face masks as an effective preventative measure against Covid-19 infection, the researchers behind the study said.
Sad but true.Texas is fast becoming a democrat state and here's the proof.
The only reason for mask mandates is to create Conformity and submission. It's the reason why when you take hostages or prisoners you cover their head. Once that covering goes on people are almost immediately submissive. It's the same reason certain culture has women cover their faces... Keeps them submissive.This is a great article explaining the theory behind masking up.
And it might get really ugly. Just wait till the first person is shot for not wearing a mask and the ticketing officer claims they were scared.Houston just instituted a new mask mandate. $250 if you don't comply.
And if you're not?If you're an asymptomatic carrier of covid, then wearing a mask will lower the degree in which you infect places and people. Super simple stuff.
No it wontIf you're an asymptomatic carrier of covid, then wearing a mask will lower the degree in which you infect places and people. Super simple stuff.

Right?...Wonder what the relationship is between folks that struggle with masks and folks that can't help but breathe out of their mouths.
It's kinda like the folks that have a hard time wearing PPE on a job site. Sure, you might not need that particular piece of gear on at a given moment, ideally you pop it on or off depending on the hazards. Know what happens when you give people that leeway? Dumb shit. A hazard shows up, they don't have their lid on, and someone gets wrecked. Now you've got a rule that everyone needs their hardhat on as soon as they're past the fence and god help you if you're caught with it off. It's annoying, over the top, and everyone hates it, but it's also not much of a bother unless you're in the mood for a recreational moan - then it might be the worst thing ever. Get a few buddies on board and warm up your vocal chords to start the chorus of braying jackasses.
Same deal with COVID and asymptomatic carriers. Is wearing a mask a useful layer for a combination of imperfect strategies? Yea. Clearly. Might you end up wearing a mask a whole bunch when its totally unnecessary? Obviously. Would having smarter and more targeted approaches be better? Yup. Can communities effectively self police to take appropriate precautions when the situation actually merits it? Sometimes, but if you've got enough individuals skipping out on being proactive in all situations it falls apart pretty quickly.
Anecdotally, I've been running risk management this year for about 1,000,000 man hours by small teams operating throughout the country and have plenty of examples of the effectiveness of stacking imperfect mitigation strategies. Shit works. It's not rocket science. Beyond COVID infection, general disease rates for things like colds, flus, and norovirus have plummeted in those teams. All time lows. So no, I'm not an epidemiologist, but I have been successfully managing this shit for tons of people. How about you?
I agree that the gov't has totally dropped the ball on managing things at the federal, state, and local levels. I agree there's a balance to be struck between requiring something in all situations and requiring it in ones that more clearly merit it. I agree that all of this sucks ass and has highlighted a lot of things that aren't working well in our society or might be moving in a bad direction. But masks work, kinda, at least when there's a situation for them to be working in. They work way better combined with other things than alone.
At the end of the day it's all about cheese anyway.

I’ll preface this with saying I agree with portions of a lot of various posts on here. Realistically, there’s a lot of unknowns right now but somehow people seem to know all about it.Of course they didn't just surface in 2019. Things that limit spread of COVID also limit spread of other infectious disease. Duh.
If you think I'm saying a face covering/n95 paper mask is equivalent to a silicone half mask or better thats been test fitted, well, no. Not all respiratory hazards are created equal or managed in the same way.
As for asymptomatic folks not shedding virus, again, no. They don't have the same risk profile as someone hacking up a lung though if that's what you're trying to say.
But by all means, continue the serenade.
Of course they didn't just surface in 2019.
Even if I could I would never admit to it because whoever smelled it dealt it....can you smell a fart?

Please don't wear a mask.
Let Darwinism do its magic.
77% of people that contracted covid said they had worn a mask since the beginning.Please don't wear a mask.
