Huh? I'll quote mikejm here, "Don't impose your droplets on me". It doesn't mean I'm asking you to take care of me. I'm asking for some common courtesy. Are you so reckless with your other decisions? Do you speed often? Drink and drive? Please just make the right decisions, they do affect others.

Yeah I know that. That's why I stay monogamous and and don't go sharing drinks with others. Unfortunately we can't say the same about Covid risks. A disease that continues to kill about 1,000 Americans per day. How many are we losing to herpes?

Yet herpes has been around for years, the medical community understands it and the risks, you know that.

One could argue that those going into public or to gatherings without a mask are also not capable of taking care of themselves or others.

Never said that but the governor in Georgia recently has done so and Betsy devos is also suggesting to do so.

We do? Or we just know there’s no immediate side effects for 40% moving forward?

Of course they’ve been deceptive. I’m not blindly following anyone. You may see the mask wearers as sheep, I guess that’s your opinion. While I would consider an anti-masker one of trump’s sheep.

Is altru selfish for requiring all employees, patients, and visitors to wear masks? Sanford? Mayo? Sorry bro but the selfish are the ones who claim it’s their civil liberty to be in public with no mask. It’s a form of entitlement and privilege, you should understand that right?

That’s the key, we don’t know. But many are ready to just go off the limited info they know or think they know.

I don’t know if they’d open everything up but I’d be ok with it, as long as known infections were isolated and social distancing was still in place. I don’t make the rules though, at this point we can only control our own.

Oh you got me I’m selfish. Just like every hospital system out there too?

Wouldn’t need to be n95 of everyone wore a mask. But we have people even on this board refusing to wear masks in public.

The only type that I would trust to protect the one wearing.

Yeah we could do that if we had the ppe. Anyone know where I can buy some n95 masks?

Who reported that children cannot transmit covid?

We have extremes on both sides, fueling the fire for each other.

Serious answer. I've been very aware of the risks prior to March as I have a couple immunocompromised individuals in my family. Now that our country is losing roughly 1,000 lives/day to a novel virus that we have no idea of long term side effects, sure my concern has grown.

That's not my answer. My answer is a mask requirement since we know it can help slow the spread and allow our country to open back up.

Why would they withhold funds from the states that will need it the most? Lol

So how would personal responsibility apply to the thousands of asymptomatic covid carriers today?

No but HIV wasn’t spread through the air. Did he not recommend protected sex? Was there a group of right wingers promoting unprotected sex and sharing needles?

Ok how about the “Chinese virus” or have you not heard him call it that? Yeah it’s a place, but they are people too aren’t they?

Back in the 80s wasn’t there a handful that called HIV “the gay cancer”? Pretty in line with our president calling covid the “wuhan flu” no? I don’t recall masses of right wingers fighting for their right to spread HIV though. and we were reporting covid deaths through the CDC just like we were reporting flu deaths, until the White House made moves to make the covid counts less transparent, so there’s that!

The forum part of the deep state too? Who would have known!

If only we had some uniform guidelines that made sense. what does the contract tracer’s previous job have to do with this though?
