DizRotus Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 People must understand that wearing a mask in public is to protect others, rather than an indication of their own paranoia. The best quality masks, such as N95s should be kept available for health care workers, but cheap dust masks, like the 10 pack from Dollar Tree on the left in the photo, should be used in public. The CDC, Dr. Fauci, the Surgeon General, and every other intelligent and informed science driven expert recommends that. Only a selfish narcissistic individual who believes using the Resolute Desk somehow makes him an expert would ignore those recommendations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 President DT said, ”Everyone in America should be wearing a mask. I won’t be wearing one.” You could almost hear him saying, “of course”. Since the nation’s attitude is supposed to come from the top down, his True Believers will naturally think that the mask recommendation are great, but not needed for them. And the body count goes up every day... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofers and Tweeters Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Looks like Italy's new case numbers are staying better. Their closed case % numbers aren't nice. Hope it's not a standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 This is what Dr, Fauci is talking about. Leave the real masks to health care workers risking their lives treating COVID-19, but use something in public to reduce the possibility that you contaminate someone else while still maintaining social distance. Our older son got bored at Little Caesars Arena where his job is to watch over the dark and empty place. To combat the boredom he fashioned this from a bandana and rubber bands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tube fanatic Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I have a relative who is hypertensive, diabetic, seriously overweight, has prostate cancer, atrial fibrillation, is on 13 meds, and is an opioid addict. His 3 young grandkids (age 4,5 and 6) live down the street, and he is with them everyday. Their dad is a NYPD cop stationed in Manhattan. My relative and his wife (she is good shape) have no concerns whatsoever! This seems to be a common theme among many older folks.

Yesterday, elsewhere, someone posted a video of a motorcycle with the kickstand, throttle, driveshaft were on the wrong side. Some thought it was one from across the pond, but it was just from the selfie side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I’m in total agreement that wearing a mask is an added safety step along with keeping a safe distance from one another. I don’t understand how Fauci could have been so wrong and/or shortsighted when in early to mid January he stated the US had nothing to worry about and the virus would have little to no effect here. Even the experts are being surprised on a near daily basis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Watch the South Korean doctor video...wear masks already. Look at the cause and effect. Wear one so that you have a better chance. Say it, for whatever reasons, Fauci made a mistake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
