Masks have a proven record the virus enters the nose or mouth to get to your lungs then it starts to make of copies itself Delta has a load of 300. Masks act as a barrier. wearing one is not stupid and not an political statement it's about protecting you.😷😷 Yes no doubt the dead anti mask fanatics like the Republican governor who died yesterday of Covid thought that not wearing one was a good idea. A badly fitted mask (or face covering as the mandate requested) will not stop an airborne virus, cases haven't risen dramatically since the mask mandate was dropped (they have in fact fallen), they don't work. 13 hours ago, Dardandec said: You have been told this a million times. Most transmissions will occur in private dwellings where masks and distancing doesn't take place. Watch the video. So lockdowns are useless then? interesting to read that around 20k people who should have been diagnosed with cancer had not been due to missed referrals and that the backlog could run to 2033, the overreaction to this nonsense is going to be very, very costly to human life.

So lockdowns are useless then? Again, it's the same with the vaccination. Masks do not stop people from contracting the virus but they lower the risk of transmission by wearing one. So yes, they do work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time you go to the toilet, don’t bother removing your pants first. The tiny water molecules will fit easily through the much bigger holes in the fabric. Its a waste of time removing your pants to have a wee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GabrielC Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Today 180 deaths, 47.880 new cases source Zoe App. Yes I do think we will be wearing masks for the foreseeable future. I recommend NK 95 tight fitting ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
