Meh, if some place asks me to wear a mask, I keep some in my vehicle. No big deal.
I don't think the ones most people use are nearly as effective as n95/K-n95.
You never found an RCT trial saying otherwise.
You brought up out of nowhere that you were going to take a shower you senile old fart
Properly fitted N95s do work well and I said so myself, there is plenty of data on that. I never asked you for data on that.
You are all over the place. Go take a nap and clear your head.

A Doomsday COVID Variant Worse Than Delta and Lambda May Be Coming
Scientists keep underestimating the coronavirus. In the beginning of the pandemic,
they said mutated versions of the virus wouldn't be much of a problem—
until the more-infectious Alpha caused a e in cases last fall.
Then Beta made young people sicker and
Gamma reinfected those who'd already recovered from COVID-19.
Still, by March, as the winter surge in the U.S. receded, some epidemiologists were cautiously optimistic that the rapid vaccine rollout would soon tame the variants and cause the pandemic to wind down.
Delta has now shattered that optimism.
This variant, first identified in India in December, spreads faster than any previous strain of SARS-CoV-2, as the COVID-19 virus is officially named.
It is driving up infection rates in every state of the U.S., prompting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to once again recommend universal mask-wearing.
The Delta outbreak is going to get much worse,
"The number of intensive-care beds needed could be higher than any time we've seen,"
almost every single one of the 100 million unvaccinated Americans who hasn't had COVID-19 yet will likely get it in the coming months,
short of taking the sort of strong isolation and masking precautions that seem unlikely in the vaccine-hesitant population.
"We've failed to shut this down as we have other pandemics,"
"It may be around forevermore, leaving us continually trying to figure out what to do next."
Delta, like most of the other variants, blindsided us, worsening and extending the pandemic.
Eta, which is now in several countries;
Kappa, which arose in India;
Iota, which first popped up in New York City—and especially
Lambda, which has torn through Peru and shows signs of having unusual success in infecting fully vaccinated people,
the chances that a virus in the population will produce a much more dangerous variant in the course of a year would normally be extremely low.
But when billions of people are infected with billions of copies of a virus, all bets are off.
"Vaccines are the key, and vaccine hesitancy is the obstacle." "hesitancy" how about "refusal"
There's no reason to assume Delta represents any sort of ceiling in infectiousness.

Well no .
Big Pharma has to be licking their chops at this point. New vaccines, yearly boosters. Not to mention all the drugs they'll be selling to treat the lingering side effects of the virus.
Tell it, SfS.
Testify!!!
On mother er Biden's watchPERIOD
"A piece of gauze proved worthless."
100 years ago. Nothing has changed. Take any mask go into your bathroom with a can of Raid. Close the door. Don your mask, spray the Raid. You'll smell it.
Yearly? Pfizer CEO is asking for 6 month boosters
How many times have you done this experiment, cubby? Would explain a lot.
They directly contradict each other. One of them is right and one is wrong, you posted both. You can't have both positions at the same time and claim you're not wrong.
But you keep cherry picking and peddling half the story, something Osterholm actually had to go out and ask people like you not to do.
Osterholm wears cloth masks, admitted by himself. Hopefully that's enough for you to stop spreading FUD.
he didn't say masks don't work, he said they're "not very effective". Why do you keep lying about this?
I quoted what Osterholm said. It doesn't matter if it was a year ago or not, that's still him, correct?
Everybody and their mother know N95s are better masks. This isn't a revelation, but extrapolating that to mean "masks don't work" is the kind of absolute fake news you'd expect from outright liars or re s.
I think you're smarter than that, and this is just a schtick, but it's still a lie.

Weird.When examining the entire population, the deficits were most pronounced for paradigms that tapped cognitive functions such as reasoning, problem solving, spatial planning and target detection whilst sparing tests of simpler functions such as working-memory span as well as emotional processing. These results accord with reports of long-COVID, where 'brain fog', trouble concentrating and difficulty finding the correct words are common.
Sounds a lot like my dad for the last few years.
We have evidence that some forms of chronic fatigue are due to long term viral illnesses. Makes me wonder if he is suffering from something along those lines.
At this point the fascists are a direct threat to the country. Jan 6 proved that.
Not going to apologize. They have become what they claim Democrats are.
The time for such things has passed, IMO.
Homicidal DeSantis Defiantly Responds to Biden’s Covid Leadership Criticism:
‘I’m Gonna Stand in Your Way’
https://www.mediaite.com/tv/desantis...d-in-your-way/
DeSantis to Biden: 'I don't want to hear blip about COVID from you' until you do your job and secure border
DeSantis said Biden is 'importing' COVID from around the world
Just glad you aren't a healthcare worker, psycho
Florida is hundreds of miles from the border. he's deflecting blame where it doesnt make sense
if its all theater, why do you keep telling people to "wear a ing mask"
Once youre in youre in. You can ride a bus to FLA
is there any data suggesting that significant numbers of border crossers are getting into FLA and spreading covid?
Didnt claim that. You claim Florida gov should not worry about border since Florida is hundreds of miles from a border
Thats just a silly statement
not silly at all. there's nothing to indicate that the border is having any impact on florida's covid numbers.
remember deathsentence is the moron who literally made it illegal for CRUISE liners to require proof of vaccination
