Yes....and please cough on me as well. Come over to my bbq and cough on our food while you're at it. Really-to that extreme, ay?
So are you advocating that if you knowingly have covid, it's okay to go out with a mask anyway?
Absolutely that's your right and I assume that risk when I don't wear a mask (Btw: not a single person wears them at my marina) Just like I assume that risk of you being on the road drunk, it's a risk we take as humans. You will never avoid all risk.
So even before COVID I never hung around people who are coughing and sneezing. So now with COVID I would see your sorry ass and head 180 degrees in the other direction. See I can avoid the COVID.
But why should they be compelled? Avoid them or go somewhere else.
Could not be said better MM. Wear a mask if that is what you think you need to do, If you feel threatened by those that don't wear a face covering then wear an N 95 mask and face shield to protect yourself. While your at it don't forget the tin hat to protect yourself from the contrails and the electromagnetism from overhead power lines, oh and don't forget about the radiation emanating from your cell phone that will give you cancer.
You'll be back.

Alnav, I don't think anyone is questioning that seniors are frightened and concerned and certainly they have been frightened by the way the government has responded and continues to spook the herd with the information that they control. I have actually yet to see solid reporting on the double blind testing and experiments being conducted to inform the guidelines. We see these politicians citing models and "experts" pontificating on what we 'need' to do to stay safe but where is the experimental proof that any of it actually works? Is some one in a lab somewhere actually taking covid positive people with symptoms talking to a lab rat or monkey from four feet away and then testing them a few days later to see if they have been infected? And then repeating the test a couple of hundred times to come up with definitive results? Then are they taking the same infected people and masking them up and having them repeat the exercise and determining that indeed the ape or rat was 100 percent protected by the masked person? It seems all this is theoretical and not actually proven. Of course if it was proven that there was no effectiveness to wearing the mask do you think that would be reported and inform policy? Bottom line is this, which is it? Does six feet distance keep you safe from infection or is it the masks or is it both or is it neither? We just can't trust our government that is comprised of humans rightfully bent on their own self interest to be truthful and do what is in the interest of the people. That would take true statesmanship and sadly that is a long lost concept. I like to make decisions about my life on hard proven facts and there are precious few of those available with respect to the Covid. Just look at the corrupt way the dead are being counted. I heard that Colorado's numbers were inflated by 30%, who does that benefit? Its just a big shit show and a lot of scoundrels will be skimming huge sums before it is over and no one will go to jail over it. Maybe if the Seniors think about it a little more and use a healthy dose of cynicism they might rest a bit easier.
100% agree.
