If you wear a mask for any reason

As for herd immunity, that's what "flatten the curve" meant. Flatten the curve so hospitals prepare. Then play for herd immunity. The fact that we are only now outraged about it speaks to our collective stupidity; we decided it and I had my emotional meltdown about it in April 2020.

Mask order definitely beats no mask order, tho. I voted Trump in 2016 but he failed utterly at every major promise. And the pandemic is one of the biggest black-eyes and humiliations the US has ever experienced. I can't regret my vote for Biden after Trump's betrayal.

Herd-immunity was the end game, because it has to be. I should have been more specific. Dr. Scott Atlas was advocating for resumption of normal activities of all economic endeavors including massive crowds at sports stadiums, arenas, etc. His strategy was to let the virus run through the population with no mitigation and he was anointed by President Trump for holding such views.

Oh yeah that's horrible. sorry, i'm cranky this morning [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I would argue however that immunity via vaccination is an option, and ruthlessly quarantining the virus out of our population like Japan or China is/was also an option. But thanks to zero Federal leadership, we have developed none of the tech or policy to achieve that, so it's surely not happening. I guess we'll just do it next time from scratch when our pants are really on fire with supersmallpox.

What a "conservative" position, to be unprepared for war and tearing at our electoral institutions with maximum force. We've been turned 180 degrees on the spot by nothing more sophisticated than the Murdoch media machine. We are so mixed up. True disaster lies ahead and what makes me sickest is that we deserve it.

Thank you for this expert analysis rooted in your keen awareness and knowledge of epidemiology. It is much appreciated and I await more insights from you.

The people that wear their masks everywhere are the same people that will be first in line for the vaccine.

Really hoping for immediate severe side effects and this blows up in big pharma's face.


btw - we developed covid 19 in parallel w/ the vaccine, released it in china to make them look bad, and have been using this manufactured crisis in the name of tremendous profits and increased government control

hope this helps

also lmao @ plinki's evade account going hard in the paint again
