So you got yourself COVID vaccine. Think you can’t get COVID? Think again.

I’m not just speaking for myself. There are thousands of people who still work and who need extra precautions against covid. I was also clear that I was fortunate enough to be able to transition to video conferencing. Not everyone can do that.

And I apologize but I don’t see where you made a suggestion for precautions. I just saw where you said to take them. Someone else said filter up but finding a filter supply in the summer of 2020 was damn near impossible.

FWIW, I don’t think we handled things appropriately for those that could not transition to working from home. I don’t have an answer for what we SHOULD have done but we effectively abandoned those people and that’s not cool. *Im including small businesses under “those people”.

Ok, I'll try again and I'llllll taaaaalk reaaaaaaaal sloooooooooow. If you are high risk, take precautions, which include:
1) Isolation, at least until they figure the virus out.
2) Get real PPE -- N95 masks, etc. when available.
3) High risk individuals get modified duty and/or working conditions, or go on unemployment while they isolate.
4) Avoid people like the plague.
5) Stay out of bars, restraunts, entertainment venues. No mosh pits.
6) Use hand sanitizer and wipe everything down.
Etc.
 
Here’s your mask science.

“...They are not only a way of decreasing breathing in the virus, primarily through large respiratory droplets, but also a behavioral reminder that there's a pandemic and life is not the same right now ― and a reminder not to put our hands in our eyes nose or mouth until we've washed our hands.”

A mask cannot filter the virus itself.

Holy bejeezus what will it take for people!?

You are not serious right? You really believe that? If you do, your head is so far up your butt you can probably see daylight.
 
Our government is sooo worried about our health such to mandate masks for those vaxed and virtually force everyone to get vaxxed ...
... that they let millions of unvaxed non mask wearing illegal immigrants into our country and then use our military to spread them all over the country.

Hmmmm

Remind me again. How does the virus travel?

Anyway it can: Flatulence, aerosols, droplets to name a few. The best one I've seen at the office was a person who thought going to a Hookah bar was a good idea. Nothing like sharing a water bong with 8 close friends. She now believes in covid.
 
Here's some research to show masks work:

Hot air?

Probably didn't realize most have been double masking for years

I flew in September last year while we were in the middle of all this. Took about 7 months until I finally caught COVID...lol
 
No PPE is 100% that that you get at a big box store. We used to clean, repair and place back into service large storage tanks. Real PPE was expensive and the users were trained. The stuff you get in a big box store is a joke; if you think you are safe. Recently We had our basement rebuilt. When they drywalled; they wore "Covid style" masks. After 10 minutes I asked if they could smell the dust "Yes" I gave them some masked we used on tanks. At the end of the day I asked could they smell the drywall dust "No" If you can small the world through a covid mask you are probably going to breath in covid if it is in the air.

And this just goes to show why many of us do not believe them. We know this to be true, but they act like it isn’t.

It exposes the truth that their edicts are about power and control not about true protection...
 
If you are exposed to 10 molecules of the virus your body is more likely to fight it off. If you’re exposed to 1,000,000 molecules of it you’re screwed. This isn’t a conspiracy about control. This is basic science. The masks reduce your exposure. Particularly if the sick person is wearing a mask and the mask is catching the majority of the virus before it gets into the air. The vaccine prepares your body to fight the virus when you’re exposed to it. The masks work, social distancing works, limiting your time indoors with others works, and the vaccine works. NONE of those are 100%.
 
I’ll put this in terms that maybe some
of you can get. If you’re in a bar and your buddy farts you’re going to smell it. Walking away from him reduces the smell. Covering your nose with your shirt also reduces the smell.

This is no different.
 
You mean like dunes at the beach and rock walls? Might as well not bother and let water/tides/waves do what they do, right? The point is to reduce. That’s what all this ”windowdressing” is about.
