There are ways around it, and there are businesses that do not enforce the BS "mandate".

Absolute sarcasm. We need a sarcasm font.

Great !
Enjoy your dose of Corona 19. I've heard it's wonderful so you'll not be disappointed.
I thought the masks were for other people?

Depends on the mask. Some of us do enough DIY projects to have had a few N95s lying around.

I’ll post less if you wear a mask.

The masks help prevent spreading covid from the wearer. It does little to nothing to keep the wearer from getting infected (or so I have heard/read)
Not really. I wish the masks did work because if they did, it would create the same effect as herd immunity. But you can look at the stats and see that they don't really do much.
Take a look at Florida for example. They reopen the state, and the cases remain mostly flat despite no mask orders. Then we have memorial day, the protests and the 4th and the cases start going up. The large cities in Florida all pass mask laws, but it takes over a month for the cases to start declining. These 2 things highlight there is no correlation between the number of cases and masks.
They've done studies on masks for more than 2 decades. For 25 years, the studies would show that outside healthcare workers or people who expect people to be coughing/breathing in their face, the masks did not help. Beyond that, they found that not only did they not help, but they could actually increase your risk and spread virus even more. They also increase your risk for other respiratory infections.
But here is a recent study.
On respiratory droplets and face masks
quote:
1. Without wearing a mask, droplets travel to about 70 cm.
2. Wearing a mask, the bulk of droplets will travel about half the distance.
3. However, in both cases, there are still isolated droplets transmitted beyond 70 cm.
This is a study with people coughing without covering their mouths. And without a mask the particles travel a total of 2.2 feet. With a mask, the coughed particles travel only 1.1 feet.
So in a nutshell, if you constantly have people coughing in your face from less than 3 feet away, a mask may help. For the other 99.9% of the population, it's not doing a damn thing.
I can't remember anyone ever open coughing in my face from 2 feet away outside little kids.
It's all political and a means of creating a scapegoat to blame.

Damn it rock I was about to come in here and say "No football no seat belt" and you STOLE IT
But the evidence shows that seat belts saves many lives, unlike masks.

Let’s hold masks to the same standard as HCQ. Double blind, randomized studies that are peer reviewed. Let’s actually see what they do.

COVID has done nothing if not reveal the biggest snowflake counts on the planet.

Agreed. The need to wear what amounts to a safety blankie on your face so that you can sleep at night is about as snowflaky as you can get.

It is a hoax from the standpoint it’s being used to manipulate dumb people.
