The only thing they know for sure is that wearing one doesn't keep you from contracting it or anything else. The rest is unproven speculation. How are you so convinced masks do absolutely nothing to prevent respiratory illness? Lazy, selective reasoning. There are just as many studies, if not more, showing they are more effective than not. But if we go to the far extreme to say they won't have any effect at all (which is untrue, because we have already observed facemasks reduce transmission), it's still pretty simple to wear one to protect others. I don't know why we are still arguing this in 2023.
August 31, 20232 yr Right, so masks don't protect you, vaccines don't either, and yet republicans started dropping dead from covid at a much higher rate than democrats right after vaccines were rolled out. Could it be because most of them are predominantly fat, old, and stupid? Sure, that's certainly part of it, but I can't help but wonder if there were any other factors at play. Guess we'll never find out!

He's a back woods alcoholic probably collecting money from disability.

First of all - Second - the only ones dealing in absolutes in here are the posters who (still) claim that contracting COVID is 100% a death sentence

We had never been there but I had the time off and we wanted to get away for a few days. We drove into this "resort", took one look around and drove right back out. It looked like a terrifying vacation but it great place to get Hepatitis C. But I hope you guys had fun!

August 31, 20232 yr Most of the time my seat belt doesn't do anything but make me uncomfortable. Why should I wear it? DUM-BASS. dope is not a suitable substitute for dum-bass emb.

September 1, 20232 yr Wife and I are in our 2nd bout with Covid. Her symptoms started Friday and she’s on the mend. Worst it got for her was bad head/sinus congestion to the point that she couldn’t really taste or smell anything for a day or two but it is lessening the last 2 days. She tested herself last night because she found out a kid in her classroom tested positive. Since I’d been congested since Monday I tested myself too and also tested positive. We were both chalking our symptoms up to the kittens that we rescued and are currently fostering that we’re both allergic to. I had also forgotten to take my allergy meds Monday morning which is when my symptoms first started. Throughout the day I’ve gotten more run down feeling and currently starting to get aching pain in the joints and back. Fun.
September 1, 20232 yr Summary: proper usage of the right kinds of masks is a measure that can significantly reduce infection/transmission AND mask mandates generally do not significantly reduce infection/transmission. It isn't hard.

Why you always lean into make up something idiotic is a mystery.

If you ask me Myrtle ****s unless you are there for golf only in which case it is like going to a buffet with varying levels of quality.

I don't remember the name of the place but it was right there in the main strip. Myrtle's rough, it's like Pigeon Forge/Gattlinburg on the coast.
