Covid- 19 - Second wave

[NoSavingByTheBell]

answer this question honestly.... (why do I think I will not get any honest answers here.... well, I could be proven wrong and get an honest answer, we'll see...)

if you had to get coughed on or sneezed on directly into your face from even 3 feet away, as an experiment......., and you knew the cougher or sneezer had COVID or SARS or some really potent disease...... and if you would lose all your life savings if you get infected by it.......would you wear a mask or not?

Yes, you would wear a mask, because you wouldnt take the chance with all your life savings. Means what? Means that you KNOW a mask will reduce your chances even a little bit (or a lot). Thats what it means. Dont deny it.

Again, I dont expect any honest answers here. But hey, thought I'd try to get a few.

Masks are there primarily to protect other people from the wearer. It is a selfish and very fearful attitude to not be in the least bit worried about protecting other people's rights and more worried about preserving some illusion of strength or independence.

OK then so if a person got tested for COVID & didn't have COVID they could not wear a mask and everything would be ok or is the mask a mandatory thing because "you never know"?

They should wear a lanyard or a badge that says "God dangit!! I've been tested and I'm covid free dangit!!" In smaller font "it's ok if I cough on you"

Not sure if masks are mandatory anywhere are they? I see people freely walking around, some masked up, some not. In places that have a sign saying be a good egg and mask up. No one gets forcibly removed from anywhere. Not that I've seen anyway.

Seen Australia lately?

The vid didn't really address whether masks are mandatory though did it? They may be, I don't know. You'd have to be inclined to go through every states law for the answer to that. They're not mandatory where I come from.

Neither of those people would have been arrested if they had a badge or a lanyard. That much is a fact.

those scenes were more than likely staged. the one with the pregnant lady certainly was. i had to travel into melbourne for something to do with work. on the way back it was raining hard. none of the police at the check points were stopping & checking cars. they were instead preferring to stay dry. if you still believe this bullshit you are a retard

To answer El Kabong's question of "OK then so if a person got tested for COVID & didn't have COVID they could not wear a mask and everything would be ok or is the mask a mandatory thing because "you never know"?"

If they tested negative and didnt wear a mask after that DURING THIS PANDEMIC, they could easily become infected from others who are also not wearing masks. Also, just because they tested negative today doesnt mean they are out of the woods because they could have been infected yesterday or 72 hours ago and the incubation stage is happening inside them may take longer --- I dont think you test positive the moment the virus enters your mucous membrane. It has to incubate and reach a certain level in your body before it shows up --- in many people this could take 7 days. So testing negative today proves only that right at this moment you dont have any detectable virus. So yes, you could test the following day, or 2, 3, 4 , 5 days later as positive even if today you were negative.

True what you say about "you never know", but during a pandemic it is certainly highly likely as contagious as this shit is, for you to be infected without a mask.

I didnt even get into how you may test negative but a few days later be positive and asymptomatic, and if you dont wear a mask you can easily spread it to others.
