Just don't cry when the truth bombs blow up your fantasy world.joe dropping truth bombs, thx. Sorry if it hurt your feelings.
Im ok with how it was handled. Onward.There should at least be a suspension.
They did. Several large retrospective studies have come out showing that N95s were fantastic and cloth masks did better than we thought they did. Here's the most comprehensive one.Remember this asshat told everyone masks stopped Covid.
Not a serious person who should be believed. Nothing more than a political hack lying to everyone
Lol. This is why you are a joke and not taken seriously.They did. Several large retrospective studies have come out showing that N95s were fantastic and cloth masks did better than we thought they did. Here's the most comprehensive one.

I can't believe people still think masks didn't help. Wow. What year is it.

Confirmation bias is always there to help idiots feel better about being wrong.
Either this is one of the biggest cases of incompetence I history or it was setup. I mean there really isn't an option c.
And Joe never lies? That’s all he does. Remember HE created 2,000 jobs just last week and was never involved in Hunter’s business dealings. Hahahaha.joe dropping truth bombs, thx. Sorry if it hurt your feelings.
I’ll have to disagree with my fellow conservatives on this one. I certainly think it likely helped to reduce the spread, and I was (unfortunately) able to see it first hand with our son, who had several hospital stays during that period of time.They did.

The problem is people wearing them correctly. The masks absolutely work. Forced masking didn't work because too many people didn't take it seriously and wore the masks incorrectly. If only one side of the canoe is paddling, all you wind up doing is going around in circles. There was a study in early 2023 from Cochran that basically came to this conclusion and dishonest information brokers ran with it claiming that "masks don't work" and, apparently, it is still what people believe. It isn't the masks that failed us, it was the individuals.I’ll have to disagree with my fellow conservatives on this one.

As a youngster, he would get adenovirus or RSV twice a year, and you could guarantee that whichever he went in to the hospital with, he’d come out with the other. Mix in the flu, or annything else… well, getting any of those back to back would wipe out his immune system for a while, making it easier to catch anything else coming thru the neighborhood, so to speak. The worst part of it was that we as parents were likely carriers, and since I show very little in the way of symptoms, it was likely that we would bring it to him.
I completely understand that not everyone has people around them that have compromised immune systems, and consequently, don’t want to have to wear a mask. I get that, but to say that masks didn’t / don’t help to stop the spreading Covid, or ANYTHING, especially in aforementioned hospital setting, and/or the flu season… well, I strongly disagree with that idea.
Compromised immune system is a much different deal than this debate though. It would be hard to argue someone in that situation should the wear a mask and not a cloth mask. I mean ultimately no matter what medical condition if someone wants to wear a mask I am not going to tell them not to do it. This is about forcing healthy people to wear a mask because science and claiming they are killing people if they didn't.I’ll have to disagree with my fellow conservatives on this one.

To be clear, I’m saying that if people in a hospital setting wear a mask, be it a patient, visitor, or healthcare worker, it would help to curb the spread of airborne diseases like adenovirus, RSV, etc, especially during the “flu season”.Compromised immune system is a much different deal than this debate though.

Wearing a mask while sick and for a few days after being sick is also a different story. Healthy people being forced to wear masks was always ridiculous. No healthy person spread Covid because they were not wearing a mask. It wasn't logical then and it isn't now. The people who pushed it then admit now it was just for show.
I completely support wearing masks in a hospital. Best place to get sick is at a hospital or Dr office. I just think it is smart.To be clear, I’m saying that if people in a hospital setting wear a mask, be it a patient, visitor, or healthcare worker, it would help to curb the spread of airborne diseases like adenovirus, RSV, etc, especially during the “flu season”.
Outside of a hospital, I completely understand people NOT wanting to wear them.
130 yard shot from an elevated prone position with a shoulder fired low recoil weapon. That’s a gimme.
This is the off topic boardMy question is why is this thread still up? To many people bashing each each other and being terrible to people who disagree with them. Thought this was the Blue Lot not the off topic board???

I believe the constant cleaning helped more than we know along with more hand washing.I’ll have to disagree with my fellow conservatives on this one.

100% agree on this. I thought masks would become more common in hospitals and health care settings for years to come.To be clear, I’m saying that if people in a hospital setting wear a mask, be it a patient, visitor, or healthcare worker, it would help to curb the spread of airborne diseases like adenovirus, RSV, etc, especially during the “flu season”.

https://www.businessinsider.com/sec...staken-trump-shooter-for-police-sniper-2024-7That’s a question I’ve asked myself. I don’t have an answer, only assumptions.
Did they think that the person on that rooftop was put there as part of the security detail and weren’t sure? I doubt it. But I can’t think of anything else unless I dove in to the conspiracy theories that everyone has already started to flood the internet since everyone is an “expert” these days on everything. If you don’t believe that, just ask them and they’ll let you know.
It wasn't that at all.The problem is people wearing them correctly. The masks absolutely work.

Not sure about that either, tho you’re probably correct on some of them.It wasn't that at all.
The answer lies in any basic biology textbook.
A cloth mask, which the overwhelming majority of the people wore, were and are ineffective from keeping a virus particle in and out as the virus simply passes through the medium due to its small size. A cough or a sneeze can send thousands in the air and a cloth mask, while stopping some, would be largely ineffective.
No excuse in the world can justify this . None ......plain out incompetence at the highest level. The top down needs reworked.Then their Command and Control sucked. There is no excuses for what happened or explanations that should be allowed to fly. I would tell you the same thing regardless of who they were protecting. HUGE FAILURE.
Walk outside on a cold day with a cloth mask on and watch your breathe come out. And if someone thinks it helps, wear it.It wasn't that at all.
