To mask or not to mask....That is the question. Part II

[IndyDave1776]

Agreed. And because of that it’s silly to go around claiming the survival rate is 99.whatever% as if the virus has no impact at all. Likewise it’s silly to go around locking **** down and forcing mass behavioral changes in society, as if the virus has massive impacts on all of society.

We had fewer deaths in 2020 than in 2019. If this claim is untrue, then where are all the dead people?

Are you saying that if I'm infected with COVID, that my farts can carry it to another person?

Yes. You better wear a mask over your ass.

 

[NHT3]

To these nuts that keep wearing their masks after vaccination.

It's like paying off your car loan but continuing to make payments just so the bank likes you.

Well, apparently that's not so true now given their backlash towards the CDC's mask recommendation updates. Turns out, they wear it to signal they're of the correct ideology.

You realize that's not a logical statement, right?

Kind of a difference without significance.

True, but it's fun to laugh at.

But I've already got two "masks" there...

Did some shopping in Hamilton County today, the number of unmasked people continues to rise exponentially. Stopped in at a Goodwill store and I would say more than half the people were unmasked. I crossed the street to Walmart and saw lots of naked faces there too. I'd say a majority there still had masks on, but much closer to 50/50 than a few weeks ago when there would only be a handful.

I do, it's called pants.

OK, you caught me with a slip of the fingers such that the text and what I meant didn't line up quite right.

Inconceivable! Didn't Texas lift restrictions completely?

What about S Dakota. Aren't they all dead by now? Governor Kristi Noem, a living legend, always allowed individual choice with respect to masks and never became a tyrant.

You mentioned South Dakota. The only thing wrong with Governor Noem is that she's already married!

Did you ever see her shoot?
I saw an interview with her and they showed a clip of her pheasant hunting, and a pheasant flew up.
It took a SECOND shot for her to hit it, and the interviewer guy was raving at how impressed he was.
Her reply was "I'm a little out of practice".

Drove out to do some work yesterday and rolled by the Speedway. The race was running and folks were still coming and going to the point it held up traffic at 25th and G-town for pedestrians.
Not a mask in sight. Even LEO's were sans the mouth diapers. It was refreshing.

Today.....took the terrorists to the playground and only saw 2 young kids with masks. Lots of folks. Again, refreshing.

It depends on what you mean by "documented". Nobody has a inhalation monitor that tells them exactly what time they inhaled the virus or their GPS coordinates at that time. People may have an experience and then get sick several days later and make an assumption that the experience they had was where they inhaled the virus but of course they don't really know. The assumption is probably valid to a certain degree. Is that "documented"? Not really. It is based on an assumption. So to demand "documented" is a technicality that allows all sorts of statements to be made because "documented" doesn't really exist in the case of inhaling viruses.

"Casual" is ambiguous and could mean one thing to one person and something else to another person. Without a good definition of "casual" it just opens the door for moving goalposts.

Given that I'm not trying to be antagonistic, we'll just have to agree to disagree on "documented" and "casual".
