Mask Exemption

But they do have the virus anyway

If masks made any difference, the homeless would have been wiped out. They weren't.

They're not afraid of getting sick. They're afraid of spreading it to someone vulnerable.

. It's really not that hard to wear one. So why are people against them?

Because they don’t stop airborne diseases. The CDC announced COVID is airborne.

The CDC also says
“Everyone should wear a mask in public settings and when around people who don’t live in your household, especially when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain.“

Since you’re in denial about the effectiveness of face masks, check out the video in the article.

So, when you’re argument is debunked, you’re only response if “you’re a liar”?

If you actually read the article and watched the video, your question of “HOW effective” would be answered. But you don’t want and answer, do you. You just want to keep repeating your mantra trying to justify your refusal to comply.

But hey, sticking your head in the sand will at least keep you from spreading any viruses so keep it up. 😆

“You're a liar because you've purposely accused me of things that aren't true...like me being "in denial about the effectiveness of face masks."

Oh, so you’ve changed your argument and now believe that masks are effective enough to warrant wearing them? If not then you ARE in denial and I’m not lying.

And when I present evidence showing that they really are effective, you stick your head in the sand and refuse to even look at it. Why are you so afraid of having your question answered? Is it because you don’t want an answer and you’d rather bask in your blissful ignorance? That’s what it sound like.

nah I meant that more like as astonishment

But then the people who visit them will have covid and give it to them

Yep, it just takes a real toll on your mental health, given that you are shut in your house for months

Yes. everyone who doesn't have your opinion is stupid because.......why, exactly?

You do not have the right to call me dear. now, back to the debate. Also, when did i say that? You are trying to impose your opinion on everyone by telling them not to wear masks. We are both equally bad. So, how about we just call it a day and go home?

and wear the facemark to reduce that risk

Reply to the red comment above: If i could reply to your comments directly, i would. Also, I'm not in America or of american nationality. Also, I literally called it a day several comments ago and you only agreed just now. Also, Agree to disagree, deal?

Yes, Autocorrect is annoying. You can tell people have run out of arguments when they are just nitpicking over the opponent's grammar

Well, only relations have the right to call me dear, not some creepy dude i found on the internet. I don't even know you

Wearing a mask protects others from you more than it protects you from others.

For red comment above: ?????????

I see why you’re so ignorant about why we should wears face masks. Your have terrible reading comprehension.

Again, For your reading comprehension disability.

But according to you, the only reason to wear a mask is to protect yourself from others.

Let’s break it down for you since you’re struggling with the concept.
1. You may be contagious even though you don’t have any symptoms.
2. When you talk, sneeze, cough or just breathe, the virus spreads to others.
3. Wearing a mask reduces the chances of you spreading the virus to others.
4. Others who wear a mask reduce the chances of spreading the virus to you.
5. Wearing a mask to protect yourself from others is like surgeons wearing a mask to protect themself from patients.

Your arguments refuted.
“I should not have to wear a mask if I’m not sick” See #1
“If you’re worried about getting covid, wear a mask but don’t mandate that I do” See #1, 2, 3, 5
“Wearing a mask is unnecessary or ineffective” See #4 plus all the advice pathologists that refute your claim.

Usually only leftists get this triggered. But I guess you’re just like them . . . arguing based on false assumptions.

BTW. You’re the only one paying attention to any of your multi page rants. But if it makes you feel better, have fun.

calling timber, imgflip's Karen a leftist? Damn

You say that as if science hasn't proven that masks help prevent the spread of covid

Well, this should contain the details: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in-depth/coronavirus-mask/art-20485449

This is a reply to the comment above the comment above this one. Mental illness can lead people to become psychopaths or commit suicide. Also, you are the one who is literally saying masks don't help. If anyone here is an anti science conspiracy theorist, it is you. How many times do masks need to be scientifically proven to help for you to finally grasp this revolutionary idea

Wearing a mask (even a DIY one) will seriously decrease your chances of getting covid

Also, masks have been SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN to decrease the chances of getting covid as well as transmitting it. You say i should mitigate the risk wherever i can. Why do you think i wear a mask? All the scientists and doctors who know what they are talking about know that masks decrease your chance of getting it. Are you a doctor or a virologist, or just someone who is ignoring the evidence put in front of them because they can't be bothered to wear a face mask?

Yes, they help. they don't prevent. just look at the link that i have been posting to you. It gives you what you have been craving for this whole time: how much they help

Again, are you going to ignore the info of doctors and virologists, most who have a PHD in the field, just for your personal preferences on wearing masks?

Again, not reply to the above comment, but the one above that. link that gives you exact details on the filtration rates of the different masks:https://smartairfilters.com/en/blog/comparison-mask-standards-rating-effectiveness/

Wow, an unlabeled bar graph. Sooooo convincing.

You’re behaving like an unhinged idiot, arguing against face masks because you don’t like it.

Once again. The operating room analogy is because you seem to think that the purpose of wearing a mask is to protect yourself from others. When you manage to get past that false notion, please come back and continue the debate.

And you’re accusing ME of false analogies?

Face it, you have no argument and you’re whining about face mask mandates because you don’t give a rat’s tail about others. You’re being self-centered and childish.

for timber1972. hmmmmmmmm
