Hayduke1 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 North Dakota remains #1.... in cases per capita. But, the cultists will deny this, or say it doesn't matter. Dear Leader uber alles. The Virus Surges in North Dakota, Filling Hospitals and Testing Attitudes https://nyti.ms/2GNY3FR Still, partly because these outbreaks were slow in coming, public health officials say they have struggled to convince the public that the situation is urgent or that limits like mask rules make sense. North Dakota is one of fewer than 20 states with no statewide mask mandate and many counties have resisted restrictions. But as the state reaches a boiling point, health officials say they hope people now will start to take the virus more seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, consider the sources too. You have a U of M guy.....and a UMD guy that isn't even a doctor railing on ND. Get your own state in order first.

TheFlop Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Heard an great example a few days back. If you want to see how well most masks work (non medical grade), wait until the first cold day. Stand outside of Hugo's or Hornbacher's and watch when people come out of the store wearing their masks. When you see the steam coming through their masks from their breathing, ask yourself, do you think those masks are really blocking anything? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Fridley was just on the radio saying people skipping routine medical procedures in fear of Covid is playing just as much of a role as the uptick in hospital numbers as Covid itself.

Jerome Powell, Fed Chair, Says Economy Has 'a Long Way to Go' as Trump Calls Off Stimulus Talks https://nyti.ms/33ysGIo “Too little support would lead to a weak recovery, creating unnecessary hardship for households and businesses,” Mr. Powell said in remarks before the National Association for Business Economics. “Over time, household insolvencies and business bankruptcies would rise, harming the productive capacity of the economy and holding back wage growth,” he said. “By contrast, the risks of overdoing it seem, for now, to be smaller.” If Pelosi will send it to Trump, he will double the dollar value of stimulus checks sent out. That additional money plus the $400 unemployment should help the people. Also has money available for small business, if she chooses to send it. No pork attached. Ready to be signed today if she really wants to help the weak recovery you mention above. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a person rationally say that masks make a difference? Most of those charts prove that mask mandates don't work, but they don't necessarily prove that proper mask-wearing doesn't work. I'm only pro-mask so far as it gives some people a sense of security and makes them more comfortable going to businesses and living their lives, which society needs them to do. TSA doesn't really work either, but I'm guessing most people still want security checks at airports. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSA is a poor analogy as that doesn't cause our lawmakers to live in fear and close or limit the airports. Until mask mandates go away lawmakers are forced to make decisions based on fear. 5 minutes ago, Redneksioux said: I'd like to hear from those that are anti-mask justify their stance using those graphs.

Until mask mandates go away lawmakers are forced to make decisions based on fear. Pretty easy, they clearly don't have any measurable effect. TSA does feed our fear of terrorists and we subject ourselves to inappropriate searches and pat-downs from them. The invasion of privacy has simply become an accepted part of life. For some reason, having my crotch scanned and patted down by a stranger is ok and a necessary evil, but placing a piece of cloth over my face is where we draw the line. Based on Burgum's new quarantine rule exempting mask-wearers, it seems the lawmaker (technically the governor isn't supposed to create law, but emergency declaration = nobody cares about checks and balances) is hoping masks will allow decisions to be made without fear. Mask mandates aren't causing closures, positive COVID cases are (right or wrong). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
