Read the warnings on almost everything now and you wouldn't use anything. The warnings are there because if you sneeze, cough, fart and somebody has a negative reaction the lawsuits follow. Kind of like having the warnings on lawnmowers that they shouldn't be used to trim hedges.

I once removed the tag on a mattress that said clearly
Federal law, Do Not Remove. Did not sleep for weeks waiting for them to come for me

I'm continually amazed at how stupid some people can be. People will deny science, but believe in magic. Why wouldn't one believe the epidemiologist who has statistics that shows wearing masks prevent the spread of Covid-19 and even the flu?

I wear my mask religiously but, you also need to keep in mind who is funding these epidemiologist and scientist. Sometimes these professions are influenced by politics.


I believe you may be mistaken in your conclusion. Nancy has assured us that there is no political agenda involved at all.

Since Wisconsin had a mask mandate the numbers went up. Explain that

That makes sense, right? Everyone has the right to decide whether to get sick and get others sick.

Are masks effective? We might as well discuss whether or not gravity is a real thing.

I'm ok if you don't want to wear a mask, but please don't get near me. I do not want to be part of your murder, suicide pact. Thank you.

That tag is addressed to the mattress seller, not the buyer.

The mask restrictions online look like bars or restraunts were still open, and since you can't eat or drink with a mask on...well guess what happened! Too little, too late.

Something to think about. . . .


It seems everyday I see more people wearing a mask over their mouth but leaving their nose exposed. To me, that is like wearing a condom with a pinhole in it. While it might provide some protection, the few sperm that did get through could be enough to get someone pregnant!

That’s the problem ... the mask does not stop the spread of Covid-19. There are zero studies that support hypothesis only opinions. Just Government’s control and power over the sheep they want to govern. The whole idea is silly if you thing the 1000’s of different masks (1000’s of every possible materials) are making a difference.

Let’s get on with herd immunity.

You don't wear a mask for yourself, you wear it for others. While nowhere near 100% effective, it's better than nothing. My doctor explained it to me this way:
1. You and I face each other with our pants off. I need to pee - you get wet
2. Now, you put your pants on, I need to pee - you get wet
3. I put my pants on, I need to pee - you're dry


very smart Doctor

But none of you have answered the question which was "Would you go ahead with your surgery?"

For me, the answer is unequivocally yes because we've been told to "listen to the experts".
