Wearing Masks

[Gry]

OT: Works like ringing a bell for the DoD, and corporate world.
It only becomes a negative when it is applied to the population...

Socialism for nobody is the future.

Incase anyone is wondering, I'm still not wearing a mask.

Maybe the mutated version hasn't visited yet.

only time will tell.

 

[Zeez]

almost seems like the Sweedes have more immunity from it at this stage. really weird. its too early to say, but if they dont get a surge this winter we have to seriously look at why? could it be that they have gotten to the magical 60% immunity level and thats why they have no surge?

Its tough to say. Nederland did very little to prevent covid and they are getting hit pretty hard now. Europe is difficult to score because each country used different criteria for keeping score ob cases and deaths.

are masks really working like you think? In this recent study, 70% of those who got covid wore masks "always" for the 14 days before their symptoms onset.

Masks aren't to stop you getting it or to prevent you spreading it. They are there to reduce the number of viruses passing through them. The less viruses that enter your system, the more time your immune system has to counter them before they can multiply to a number that overwhelms your system.

N 95 masks filter out microbes all the way down to 1/millionth of a meter GMT.....the only problem with that is the virus particles are 1/BILLIONTH of a meter in size and can pass through with no obstruction WHATSOEVER.....that said.....

After months and months of arguments back and forth about masks and their actual usage , it was determined that the ONLY reason to wear masks is to slow down virus particles being expelled from the person WEARING the mask if by chance being infected but Asymptomatic without showing symptoms and NOT to prevent virus from getting IN.....anyways.....

That`s what the CDC finally decided between them and God Fauci , so that`s where we stand now till therapeutics and vaccines come available.....Me ?.....Don`t wear masks but I don`t socialize either so there you go......

Peace.....DHF..... .......

Swedes are religious consumers of Vitamin D.

Also, Fauci takes 6000 IU of D a day - that's 3 times what I take. I take 2x 1000 IU pills.


Most dark complected Americans are D deficient - especially in the winter.

The US gov is too greedy to coach them on this simple subject.

Better they have 8 million customers paying an average of $100,000 each for "Covid19 treatment".


What do you think the average cost of Covid19 treatment in the US is ?

DHF, the CDC don't have a very good rep outside of the USA. In fact its pretty poor. Have you ever tried to throw grain through chicken wire? Even though the grain is smaller than the holes in the wire, most of it bounces back. The virus outer body is made up of fats. Fairly sticky stuff. If any part of a virus comes into contact with any strand of fabric, it tends to stick to it rather than continuing its journey. This is why masks should either be limited time use or left in the sun for a few days in between uses. Yes some will get through, but if the infected and the uninfected are both wearing masks, the uninfected will become infected with fewer viruses. That gives their immune system more time to mount a successful defense. This is why death rates are lower, even when infection rates are the same in areas where masks are worn.

 

[Sam_Skunkman]

Yes they do, and more deaths as a percentage of the population than the surrounding Scandinavian countries. Maybe the USA should do this? LOL, 100,654 cases in a population of 10 million in sweden
BTW the % of immunity in Sweden (less than 2%) is not even close to 80% which is what herd immunity requires.
Around 5,899 people with the disease have died, many times higher per capita than in neighbouring Nordic countries but lower than Italy, Spain and the UK.
Herd immunity=more deaths unless it is achieved by vaccinations.

I take Vit D daily I still got Covid, I take what St. Phatty takes for the last 5 years, daily.

Vitamin D doesn't prevent you from catching it, only the symptoms will be mild.The lower in vitamin D, the more severe the symptoms are.Don't forget to take vitamin K2 too.

In times of stress, it may be a good idea to double your vitamin and mineral intake.

Blasphemy !!!!!!!.....How DARE you criticize God Fauci and his HIGHLY Partisan Democratically owned members of the CDC.....Don`t you KNOW the Democrats have NO other outlet to base their wanton destruction and lockdowns of all the states controlled by folks swallowing the blue pill ?..... Sad sad sad.....other than that.....

Everything you stated about shit splatterin and being caught by said masks due to the makeup of said fatty globules/microbes does make sense and I`ll defer to your knowledge over my old ass just stayin the hell away from everyone and not deploying masks......Thanks for the info GMT.....

Looks like this shit`s gonna be here awhile , so do what`s necessary for you to feel safe about you and yours.....me ?.....Got a constant 5- 10 mile an hr offshore breeze tellin me it`s 18 times less likely to catch this shit outside , and I like fishin and checkin my crab traps , so I like my odds.....take care and.....

Peace.....DHF..... ......
