Exactly. Somehow that simple concept escapes some people, Rugs. That's the reason why everyone in an operating room wears a mask. It is not to protect themselves from the patient, it is to protect the patient from anything that they may have themselves. That's why a simple surgical mask is so effective to prevent the spread of COVID ... IF people would wear them, of course.

Even if you assume that your typical mask captures some of the particles, I am not at all sure that there is a net health benefit to them.

People fidget with those nasty things all the time, and then reach out and touch something that someone else will touch in a few moments.

I feel pretty confident kids should not be wearing them all the time, and especially n ki t while participating in outdoor play and sports. That's idiotic.

Once again, it has nothing to do with the health effect to the wearer. Wearing a mask, any mask, reduces greatly the amount of expectorants of the wearer. It is to protect others, not the person wearing the mask.

And of course you don't wear them while playing sports or such. That is just silly and not proposed. You are grasping for straws. I have a feeling you understand but are hesitant to agree. That's cool.

Be safe, Flipx, but more importantly be safe to others!

Who Dat! I'll see y'all in the Superdome this season!

20-0 Baby!

I take it you have not seen the video of the high school track athlete who passed out from lack of oxygen as she crossed the finish line. Yeah, it was in some nutty town in Wshongton state, but it did happen.

My point was that if someone is touching their nasty mask and then touching something like a kiosk then I think the net effect is to be a greater danger.

Just so many things wrong with peoples responses and “reasoning” in this thread. Ace was out of 30’foot poles.

Ahhh, the wiggle. That’s why I disagree with having you banned. It’s easier to see and disprove some of the BS things you say face to face. IF (which is not so) you were as righteous as you believe you are, then you would at least wonder why some people find you so....unpleasant. You would try to overcome that shortcoming you have. If for no other reason than to try to bridge that gap. Someone trying to engage in dialogue would do that. But, as usual, you aren’t, and the problem is never yours in your mind. Thanks for busting your own chops.

Hes a fool that spouts BS. If he can find a way to take the alternative side. He will. There's going to be a lot of losing for those Saints this year. Team has huge holes absent any talent. Youre going to see this board absent the cry baby....which he won't blame on himself but on others apparent negativity because they point out the truth

Unpleasant perhaps to those that do not agree with my takes. That's not my problem. But, by the way, is this not dialog?

I read something yesterday that said we should prioritize Covid patients needing to be hospitalized by whether they have had the shot or not. This made me think about it for quite sometime. If people don't believe in science before they get sick then why would getting Covid change their mind?

That doesn't sound like you give a damn if they change their minds or not. It sounds like what you find so attractive is the punitive nature of such a policy.
