By the way, what does "individual freedom" mean?

My God, you honestly do not get the concept. Yes, if you were wearing a mask that gave you 95% protection, it would in turn be excellent in protecting others from you. You are correct in that. But, but even a simple cloth mask that is extremely ineffective at keeping out virus particles and does little if anything to protect the wearer is very effective at catching expelled droplets containing the virus thus protecting others.

Once again, the main purpose of wearing a mask is not to protect the wearer, but to protect others from the wearer - regardless of the type of mask worn. Any mask is better than none for that purpose.

If you don't get that then the doorknob analogy appears to be correct in this case.

No help for you is it? Prozac don't help people who are touched in the head like you even. Hopeless!!

An example is to not force (ask) a child to wear a face covering as a requisite to attend taxpayer funded schools under the guise that doing so will protect other children from a virus that has a less chance of killing them than does the virus they encounter during a normal flu season. Let’s start with that.

So, you think it is reasonable to have roughly 80k vaccinated people get tested before every game without respect to known exposure or whether they have any symptoms? I suppose there is no reason why you would not extend this to every NFL, college, high school, jr high game.

That's a lot of unnecessary testing and a huge waste of resources. My opinion is that your plan would only beg down the system, make it more difficult for people who actually need to be tested to do so and hence wind up furthering the spread of the Wuhan virus.

Maybe... We have a better idea on how to treat it now as opposed to when Foreverfan had double pneumonia and got it. Regeneron works great. I wonder what are the flu and common cold stats these days ...

nor science and against the idea of individual freedom. I will no doubt now hear a version of “you don’t have a study” as a rebuff.

Dude.... If it protects me then it protects them.But let me get this through to that thick skull of yours, only if it's a properly rated mask does it work. That is the point. I think you would try to convince a door knob it can only be turned one way. Your pretty close to the drama queen aspect aren't you? You like to THINK you are right but really don't have a clue about certain things in the least and WILL keep on and on and on and on about it. Really sad, I would feel sorry for you and people like you but I don't and want, ever. So keep on spewing out what you think you know, whether you really know it or not. I'm getting a kick out of it, how about you?
