Otherwise it doesn’t make sense. Neither you nor I know why they were wearing masks in the photo. Maybe they were about to go to a store. Maybe they wore them home from somewhere. Maybe they wore them in the car for reasons that make no sense. We It’s obvious to why. She was virtue signaling like the vapid little hack that she is. And I don’t believe she had a filter or other mask as she claims. Even if you buy the deco reasoning why the holes? Maybe to breathe easier? That makes more sense and if you zoom in on the mask there is nothing showing beneath that. With that said, my family wears the mask if we know we will be within close contact with people not for us but just out of respect of other people. The data is clear, our family and the overwhelming majority of the population is at virtually little risk of the virus. But it’s a societal thing for us. Protect the most vulnerable and let’s get on with life. Me wearing a mask is not a big sacrifice and I can handle it for the next 6 months. But I sure as hell won’t be wearing it if I’m at a beach or walking outside to go into a store and definitely not in a car. And the Ozark pictures. This is just another vapid media hysteria creation. OH NO! BIG CROWDS OF PEOPLE OUTSIDE HAVING FUN IN THE SUN! The horror! This is where hysteria overrules facts. The 4 surrounding counties have one death in total. The prevalency of the virus in this area is very low. And the fact that it’s outside in the heat, humidity and UV virus makes it a hostile environment for virus transmission. And even if some people got it, the age demographic of the people present here have at least a 99.9% survival rate. I swear, the stupidity of the media runs very deep. 1

I don’t know why Karen cares about Alyssa Milano either. We are doing the same procedure as you. My wife masks outside sometimes but I don’t. 1 hour ago, Buffalo_Gal said: Compliance is not science. Yep. Science is science. The more people who wear masks when in groups, the lower the transmission. Edited May 24, 2020 by shoshin
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 ...ever wonder how the edict to "wash your hands" may be a BRAND NEW phenomenon for some?.....yup a stupid thought.....

He knows everything, yet his mental illness requires him to keep asking stupid questions just to prove he is “right.” ??? No I ask questions to clarify points that people make. There is so much baseless ***** thrown out here. And then when I ask questions for clarifications people (or trolls such as yourself) change the subject, call me names or ignore my questions altogether. It's kind of how true debate works. You should try it sometime. 1 1
njbuff Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 I just had somebody tell me that the mortality rate for this virus is 6.3%. So, that means that 20,000,000 people are going to die?

Birx also left open the possibility of recommending the nation shut down again if there is another major outbreak, saying "it's difficult to tell" if she could see the country shuttering again. She added there are preparations underway by the government if there is another wave, saying "we are preparing for that potential fall issue, both in (personal protective equipment) ... and vaccine developments so we can be ready if the virus does come back in a significant way," she said on ABC.

shoshin Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 We may finish the day #2 in deaths. A tough milestone for Brazil but good for us. Will be close. Holiday weekend reporting and all that but still, we are seeing the shift to the rising cases in South America. My neighbor’s wife has been stuck in Colombia since mid March. 18 minutes ago, Buffalo_Gal said: They can test it elsewhere. It’s an important trial.

I'm curious to see how much of the people getting infected and dying in Brazil are the malnourished and extremely poor people in the favellas. Not sure you could really social distance in those circumstances, bolsenaro or not.
