    You know, this mask debate is really stupid. Living here in PA, we are supposed to wear one. And I will when I go in a store or whatever. Whenever I'm close to someone I don't know, I'll wear one. But..,

    If I walk into a business, or anywhere else and see nobody else has a mask, mine comes off instantly.

    I won't argue with anyone over whether a mask actually works or not, it's pointless. Too much rhetoric out there to do any kind of educated research. So I'll wear one when I feel the need, without a fuss.

    When all this started, I kinda figured it was gonna be a #### show here. Meaning the idiot governor was gonna pick the winners and losers. And he tried. Of course, one company I can't stand was allowed to do business as normal. Walmart. Meanwhile the governor basically put others out of business. So I refuse to set foot in a Walmart anymore. I've learned I don't need their stuff, I can buy it elsewhere, I may pay a bit more, but I don't care.

    it isn’t airborne, it stays on cardboard, paper, plastic, that’s not airborne, besides, that little mask is worthless.
    Means everyone needs to cut their beard, trim mustache, and go back to wearing an actual respirator, but do you have the proper filter?
    If it’s airborne, we’ve all already got it, it’s to late.

    You've gotta go along to get along. My views do not align with everyone on everything, so I make concessions every day so that I can get what I want and get down the road.

    PJ O'Rourke in "How to Drive Fast on Drugs While Getting Your Wing-Wang Squeezed and Not Spill Your Drink" says that whenever you're with a hot girl you listen to whatever music she wants.

    Same with the chick with my burger.

    If you cough it can stay in the air for up to 3 hours. Please educate yourself on this before someone you love dies because of your ignorance.

    So pull your shirt over your head, it’ll be the same thing as a worthless mask.
    Ever been in a grain bin with an N95 mask?
    You still get dust in lungs, if dust gets in, you think air will get in?

    And besides, we all want to go to heaven, but not today!
    I could careless, What am I going to miss, another load of food to a place that otherwise wouldn’t give me the time of day, and would charge me $3k with a boot on my truck if I had to park?

    According to current evidence, COVID-19 virus is primarily transmitted between people through respiratory droplets and contact routes. In an analysis of 75,465 COVID-19 cases in China, airborne transmission was not reported.

    The virus that causes COVID-19 is thought to spread mainly from person to person, mainly through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs. Spread is more likely when people are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet).

    COVID-19 seems to be spreading easily and sustainably in the community (“community spread”) in many affected geographic areas. Community spread means people have been infected with the virus in an area, including some who are not sure how or where they became infected.

    The CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public, especially in places where it’s hard to maintain at least 6 feet of distance between yourself and another person. Cloth face masks are being recommended because we now know individuals with COVID-19 could have mild or no symptoms, while still spreading the virus to others. Wearing a cloth mask does not replace the need for physical distancing.

    ^From CDC website

    So, you cloth Tshirt over your head or a paper mask doesn’t mean you can creep up on someone to talk, get 6 feet away they recommend.

    only airborne I see if some sicko walks by you coughing, sneezing and it lands on your face or you run into the air he just sneezed out at 30 mphish.
    I say “Get away from me and either call or text me.”
    And that is said at a “safe” distance.

    Please learn some simple math. I will use words instead of numbers for clarification. Assuming a population of FOUR HUNDRED MILLION human beings in the United States of America......ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DEAD of the "Corona Virus.......it has "Wiped Out" .0003 percent of the population!!!!! Please use your brain and not your emotions when posting such nonsense!
