What % of people will want masks forever?

That kind of black-and-white thinking is simply idiotic. The whole idea is to mitigate risk. That’s why people wear seatbelts but still drive (and don’t drink and drive), that’s why bicyclists wear helmets, that’s why we have handrails , etc . it’s not to live in fear but to continue living.

You aren’t concerned about anybody but trolling.

You may know that in a car crash wearing a seat belt will save you from 50-100% extra injury.

Wearing a mask saves you from .0001% extra injury. Essentially pointless. Only thing you're doing is re-breathing your CO2, inhaling plastic nanoparticles, and making sure you put on your leftist-derived symbol to show the world how you are eradicating this hidden monster.

If you're talking seat belts then you cannot equate that to a mask. If you want to equate to seat belts and actually reduce your chance of getting an airborne virus then you need a full sealed suit with booties and full face mask with appropriate filtration and full length gloves over the suit.

You're only coming across as more and more ridiculous with your mask reasoning.

I love when a republican learns a word and uses it nonstop. It’s like a toddler when they begin to speak. They’re so proud they can participate in the conversation that they just repeat what they know.

So cute.

Yeah, for Democrats it’s misogynistic. Every leftist weenie loves to throw out that term at anyone who disagrees with them.

Also funny how defensive the leftists get when you articulate what they are doing. They are only used to being told how righteous they are.

How many anti-mask geniuses would be okay the surgeons operating on them with no mask?

How many of you conspiracy maskers would be okay with a bear eating you with a mask on?

I think I have worn underwear ever day that i have gone outside for. pretty much my whole life. Hasn't bothered me yet.

Maybe I am just wearing the wrong mask but seriously wearing a suit and tie is more uncomfortable than a mask. People do that constantly for hours at time. It is crazy how big of babies some people are about tiny changes.

I can't figure out if people like you are just trolling or what. Wearing a mask is incredibly uncomfortable, whereas wearing underwear is more comfortable than not wearing it. Wearing a suit is a choice, nobody makes you wear them, and they are still 100x less uncomfortable than a mask.

What does that even mean? Where does .0001% come from? If masks are pointless there is no reason for anyone to wear them, including surgeons and other front line health care workers.

What does any of this nonsense mean? A surgeon wearing a mask does not equal to you wearing a mask on the sidewalk. What the.

That this thread based on an absurd premise is in its 5th page encapsulates how the level of posters here has degraded over the years.

In MA, the currently odds of COVID death for people under 40 is 1 in 3 million.

If the vaccine works anyone who doesn't get it joins society at their own risk and those who get it are protected.

Vaccines are never 100 % effective. Even really good vaccines are roughly 80-90% effective. They work at a large scale because if enough people get the vaccine even those for whom it is ineffective on or cannot get it due to other health reasons the spread of whatever disease goes down to zero

Don't underestimate the number of people who are very excited by their own obedience. Sadly for them, there will come a day when these ridiculous mandates are eliminated, taking away this pleasure.

Wearing a mask makes sense under some circumstances. Today, indoors with non-family members, it makes sense.

But if you think that wearing a mask is comfortable or normal during more normal times then there is something seriously wrong with you.

What percentage of people will never wear a mask unless forced to, even if it risks their parents lives?

If people don't wear a mask, you're going to kill their parents?

Threats like that should not be allowed to be posted on this web site.

That's like saying getting shot in the heart is effective, or that drinking plutonium is effective.

Yes, all of these are effective and "work" just like vaccines, but that's not a good reason for doing them.

Sure wearing a mask is uncomfortable. But we are talking about the level of a neck tie and dress shoes. There is something seriously wrong with you if you think it is at a level worth complaining about.

Ok, so you're one of the crazies who thinks wearing a mask is needed all the time and is a non issue. That's great. Just keep your opinions to yourself and do not butt into anyone else's business. Ok?

Actually, it's not.

I'm not complaining. Please try to avoid trying to ascribe words or actions to me that are not mine.

Thank you in advance.
