When I wear a mask in public:
* I want you to know that I am educated enough to know that I could be asymptomatic and still give you the v***s.
* No, I don’t “live in fear” of the v***s; I just want to be part of the solution, not the problem.
* I don’t feel like the “government is controlling me;” I feel like I’m being a contributing adult to society and I want to teach others the same.
* The world doesn’t revolve around me. It’s not all about me and my comfort.
* If we all could live with other people's consideration in mind, this whole world would be a much better place.
* Wearing a mask doesn’t make me weak, scared, stupid, or even “controlled.” It makes me considerate.
* When you think about how you look, how uncomfortable it is, or what others think of you, just imagine someone close to you - a child, a father, a mother, grandparent, aunt, or uncle - choking on a respirator , alone without you or any family member allowed at bedside.
* Ask yourself if you could have sucked it up a little for them.

My wife and I drove to Cincinnati this past week end for our younger daughter’s wedding. Both ways, we stopped at a Burger King near Indy as usual to eat, but unlike usual we had to eat in our car because inside dining was closed; the {inside} restrooms were open, though. We were the only patrons wearing masks. That was OK - the local county has both the highest count of C***d cases in the state {10,945} and the highest C***d death count {668} in our state. We were able to travel as usual and economic activity was at its usual level, and we felt free to participate despite the fact that I am 72 and on medicine for diabetes. We continue living our lives and are not being ‘controlled’ by the Governor of our ruby red state.

Saw my heart doctor last week. A man with 40 years experience
He came in with no mask, I was wearing one so I ask if this mask was doing any good. He says those mask are pure BS. He says I don’t wear one because they are pure BS. Besides those home made cloth mask do not work. If you want protection it has to be a N95 mask. Then again he says mask are BS and DO NOT WORK!

Think about it a v***s is so tiny it goes through mask like it wasn't there. It is like trying to stop a house fly with a chain link fence. You are just falling for government control.


A v***s particle is t***sported inside and along with water (liquid) droplets which don't go through masks like it was not there. There are various expletives I could use to answer your thicko post but I won't bother because I don't think you would understand.

You do not seem to be paying attention. Wearing a mask is not to protect you but to protect Others from you. If we all use masks the potential to spread the v***s goes way down.

Face masks are not for your protection - they are to protect others from people like you. If you would like me to repeat this post a few times until understanding dawns, please say so.

Two things: 1)The Lone Ranger could not have said it better. 2) My understanding is that the Chinese v***s needs a host. The mask blocks/impedes the host.

If you are right—who in the “government” proposed this idea to exert control over us; who authorized the plan to tell the world to needlessly wear masks; and, most important, why? The entire planet is wearing masks to curtail the v***s, so who is behind this conspiracy to exert control, and what do the conspirators hope to gain from all these foolish people falling for their plan to needlessly wear masks?
Is it about money, or what? If you believe what you posted, please enlighten us further.

Not only that you are recycling your own CO2 waste product and reducing the O2/CO2 gas exchange in your lungs....not healthy.

I have gone to two doctors in the past two months. Both practices took my temperature at the door. Both practices called me in advance to warn me that I would be required to wear a mask at all times. In both practices all members were masked and gloved at all times. Being a heart doctor does not guarantee that one is up-to-date on infectious diseases.

Will recycling one’s CO2 waste product make a person sick, die, or what?

This thread should not have been necessary.
The importance and need to wear a mask should be a given. It is not fun, but is a small price to pay.
Unbelievable that it has become a political issue based on one man’s vanity.


Like all the "reminders" on TV, seemingly every 15 minutes...
- new normal
- we're all in this together
- these difficult times.
🤮🤮🤮
