Would you obey a mask mandate?

Nope...

I don't even have one.

I ALSO don't:

Sneeze on people, cough in their vicinity, handle items at the store that I don't intend to buy, get closer than 6 feet from fellow shoppers, etc. etc. etc.

I DO: wash my hands, carry hand sanitizer, AND, think for myself.

You are responsible, but tons aren't. Hence, the mandate is necessary. If everyone were as responsible as you, it wouldn't be needed.

JMHO.

There will be less posters here before this virus stuff is over. There will be posters that will say they were wrong in their believe on their immunity from family deaths.
SAD

Why is it that everyone is going to die later, after the pandemic is over instead of during the crisis. You make is sound as if we were all okay until suddenly people disagree with your opinion.

Nothing personal but I don't get these kind of post. Everyone just shut up and blindly believe what you want to believe or you're going to throw out that not only are they going to die, but their family too. Meanwhile doing things your way hasn't done anything to end the pandemic anymore that any other persons opinion. The only difference is that others can express their opinion without invoking the boogie man and claims of certain death to those who don't agree with them.

this is false as well.

How is it false, June 28. It’s turned into a political statement, and even the CDC can be political.
A mask does jack, you know it. If you want to wear one have at it, but the govt has no business mandating it, we are not a nanny state.
Kentucky’s positivity rate today was 3.2%, it’s why Beshear didn’t mention it. He’D rather throw out the scary 330 new cases, even if that number is irrelevant.

So yet another social media thread where the mask wearers take this morally superior position over those that choose not to wear . Such utter nonsense . I'm more like the other guy said . No mask for me , but I dont go breathing , coughing , sneezing on anyone either . my nearest neighbor is 1/2 mile . My business can be done without getting within 6 feet of the public . I wash hands . I sanitize after touching public items . Thats how I roll .. but according to some humans I'm less than them ... ah no .

Cloth masks are, and always have been, placebos for the masses. Nothing more, nothing less.

Christian county was one of the 5 hotspot counties early on.
Which was the reason they went out and got their own tests.

At this point I have nothing other to say than you are deliberately lying or are just terribly mistaken. I live here. We’ve been no different than any other county. We’ve got some cases but nothing out of the ordinary. Western state had some positives and a construction site in oak grove had some a few weeks ago. Stop posting misinformation.

Are you nuts? I clearly stated early on when Christian County organized the testing sites that you brought up originally.
I posted an article stating the same. Early on Christian County was a hotspot in the state, are you saying there’s fake news, surely not.

Look at the date on these, that is early on, just like I stated.

Masks would “in theory” help mitigate the spread, when used properly.

You know what else would help?

Sending a blood panel kit to every household in the US.

I’d wager that the percentage those that would get used correctly would mirror the percentage of masks that do.

If you were in combat, would you consider ducking bullets whizzing by you as a sign of weakness?
Macho attitude is overrated. Attitude will never stop an adverse you can't beat by being brave.
Be smart and listen to those that most probably knows what will happen if you don't.

One of the manliest things a man can do is protect others, especially your family.

I don't know how much they help, but I wear one when going to a store or other crowded places.

If you think they're worthless, then godspeed. I've never told anyone I've seen without a mask to put one on because it's not really my business. I'll just steer clear of them.

However, what isn't cool is calling people scared or p*ssies if they DO believe they help because they're just trying to protect themselves and others and that's the height of macho IMO.

My doctor, who I know is a real doctor and I pay her for her services, says to put one on every time I leave my home. I can find fakes and fringe weirdos galore and their advice is free, for good reason. I can't take any of these social media clips seriously.
A heart doctor I know and he is a real good doctor in Lawton says that it is not as bad as being reported. Bunch of weirdo's listening to agenda driven news are the ones I can't take serious.

No one should make others wear one. Steering clear is the best point made.

I never claimed certain death to anyone in particular but I do predict random death based on facts This place is random comments so the virus will get some here and kill them. It is random. I am not the boogie man. I am the man that runs from a burning building hollaring Get back, FIRE.
Nothing personal.

No, you are the chicken running around clucking and cawing that "the sky is falling".
That is a false impression of me. You try to make me a fool like you that doesn't listen when warned. Some people act like this is a hardship. It is only hard if you get the virus and die. Over 125 K in the US would echo my thoughts if they weren't dead.

I wear a mask when indoors anywhere when shopping.

Yes, I'm sure conducting business from 6 feet away is probably tough, for a simpleton such as yourself.

I take it back. You're the exception. YOU should probably wear a mask. In perpetuity...

A few years back my Mom had a serious medical issue. She went to 3 different doctors and 2 hospitals for it. They were all real and we paid for their services. She was misdiagnosed at all places by all doctors. It was actually a nurse practioner that figured out she had a ruptered ulcer. If she had gone 24 more hours without fixing it, she would have died. Doctors aren't always right.

Masks are terrible because they don't work. Covid passes through. It's just a fact.

Even worse they give people a false sense of security and result in way more touching of the face.

There are only three ways out: being exposed/herd immunity; vaccine (unlikely); actual social distancing (the kind where you don't go to the store a few times a week [which is impossible]).
