Good thinking
Except that never happened. The vast majority of hospitals are not overwhelmed with cases, because the vast majority of people who catch covid don't need to be hospitalized for it. Because it's not that dangerous. That's why the news cycle now keeps talking about "RECORD CASES", notice they conspicuously aren't saying "RECORD DEATHS".

I mean I agree that if hospitals were being overwhelmed by covid that would be a very serious problem. But thank god, that really isn't happening.

Plus, covid is never going away. There will always be new mutations, we will have to adapt to living with it like we do for the flu and common colds. When is the right time to drop masking rules? When there is zero covid? It's just not gonna happen, this is no way to live it's paranoid fear mongering now.

Have you seen your local ICU?

That's a yes or no question

Oh I guess I said zero were. Another "not all" fallacy. By and large, no, hospitals are not overwhelmed. It's not a major issue in most places. Florida has the largest elderly population in the country so it makes sense. But it's not a nightmare scenario where nobody else can get treatment and are dying on the streets or something, which is what the hysterical covid cult people paint it as.

Also lol factcheck.org. Hey guys it can't possibly be biased, because it's called "factcheck.org". I'm gonna start a site called "THEPURETRUTH.ORG" and you'll know it's all true because the word true is right there in the name!

i mind wearing a mask 0%. actually quite enjoy that it's normal not to breathe in water vapor and splatter from the mouths of strangers anymore. I also wear glasses so my eyeballs aren't picking up little spittle patterns from frothy hogs, and no wood particles get in my eyes or whatever if I have to start blastin

The rest of your body is covered in 'frothy hogs' 'spittle patterns'.

Big downside of masks is I can't see how hot girls are. Sure you have pretty eyes and a nice body, but your mouth and nose may be all jacked up, so it's just not safe.
it's okay, im a small town girl. i know most of the ppl on my daily route from pre-mask. in fact it's funny how little the pharmacy and grocery store has changed [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] so i dont lose too much of my sum beauty advantage.

double also im sorry but my ninja mask with midriff visible abs showing in a boob shirt is just too leet. face reveal is a big moment then. i have gotten some pretty big smiles and male hot girl panic reactions. So I might say for masking women, that if you add one piece of cloth you should probably take another away~
