Probably just as well.
I was writing a long post about antivaxxers on one side and lockdown loonies on the other, until realizing that I might just actually get removed.

No, no - he's been misinterpreted.
One mask covers your face, the other your ass.

If it was such a great idea, can someone explain to me why surgeons haven't been doing that in operating rooms since, well...forever?
|
|

|

Because surgeons wear proper masks, not homemade or fashionable ones made of cloth.
|
|
|

So you're suggesting we've been provided with "improper" masks all along? Where do you get yours?
I have an acquaintance working as a surgeon's assistant in an ER, and he's been my supplier. I can't tell these masks apart from those most people are wearing (and are now being told to double and triple).

I don't know where I get mine, because my wife bought them. 
They look like surgical masks but may not be N95 rated. But they certainly seem to be better than cloth masks.

The little earloop blue surgical masks are not rated for viruses. They're bacteria-catchers.
And the study showed that the only ones in the surgical suite who actually need to wear them are the folks leaning over the patient. More anti-drool than anything else.

government, facebook, twitter? Is there a difference?

Yeah, government laws apply even if your IQ is larger than your shoe size ...

Only because they apply, doesn't means that more people will follow them

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

But if your bank balance exceeds the cube of the result of your IQ multiplied by your shoe size then government laws start to apply less and less.

Being based in the UK you will also know that Ofcom clamps down on any mainstream media outlets questioning the government narrative.
Which is why the BBC has not been asking any questions.

This virus is like a bad programmer. Just uses copy and paste all over the place....

Sometimes it pastes as plain text and sometimes it pastes with merge formatting and then we have a new strain.

I was originally joking, but after a little research ...

This is the Scum, though, so the quality of anything that doesn't involved silicon enhanced ladies chests is pretty dodgy at the best of times.
But if Covid is present in pooh - and it certainly is at least some of the time - then passing gas butt-naked is probably a bad idea. Underwear and suchlike should trap it though.

Luckily, walking around butt naked is already restricted in most countries.
BTW, the quality of silicone enhanced ladies is also up for discussion.

You, personally, aren't thinking.
The masks help; not to save you, but others. Sneeze in one and taste the proof.
In any infected individual, lots of copies of the virus. More copies, more faults during copying. Meaning the more hosts, the faster its evolution. And that happening in everyone infected. Can't have that.
In ten years it'd be worse than polio and the plague combined. There's too many hosts and we need to reduce that. Or live the fermi paradox.

Indeed it will catch your boogies but we've been told that the virus is so small it can go right through the mask. So, you won't be tasting much covid.

"Might".
The chance is lowered, by a lot. The snot you normally spray and contains most is caught.
That's why you need wash your hands and stop touching your eyes.

Great argument.
