Yep, but..Weren't (I'm sure you and everyone else was) taught cough or sneeze into your hand or elbow. Don't say or think 'I can't help it' (this really isn't to you, mostly the paranoid sheeple), I have year-long allergies and I've learned to stifle a cough or sneeze until I have a tissue.


Unfortunately how many people do cover their mouths as they were taught. I have only personal experience about it. I've seen a few that still follow what they have been taught.

In Asian countries, the wearing of masks is commonplace no matter what virus might be circulating at any one time. If wearing a mask helps slow the spread of a virus why the push back? In European countries, death from the Coronavirus is just a handful a day. In the US we are over 1,000 daily and I doubt if we added up all of Europe, Australia, and New Zealand that we could get more than that. The long and short of it is that what Europe did, worked, and what the US did...didn't!

The US's paranoia over wearing masks has gone past irrational. Wearing a mask is part of the plan to get rid of the virus. So if restarting our economy is important then we need to wear our masks and stop all the bellyaching. If it isn't, then we can go on without a mask and do what we've been doing all along...

In the first place comparing numbers with us and other countries, who may use very different parameters to count cases and deaths. Do they mark the death as caused by COVID if there are at least 2 symptoms of COVID no matter if there is any positive test result? Or mark everyone who dies who tested positive as a COVID death no matter what else is going on? Vehicle accidents and gunshot wounds come to mind. And do the other countries' in question test as much as we do?

Second, in Asian countries people wear masks at the drop of a pin. So if masks work so well, why have so many mask wearing Chinese gotten sick?

Third. The CDC did a study a number of years ago on the effectiveness of masks in containing the flu virus (which is far larger than the SARS CoV-2 virus. They found that while masks, including surgical, cloth, or N95; the flu virus was not reduced at all but larger droplets which could contain the virus were broken up. [ I can hear an AHA, the masks help!] Not so fast. The smaller the droplet particles are broken into, the farther and longer they stay airborne. So a sick person wearing a mask could be not only spreading the virus with every breath, they could be spreading it more than a sick person who was not wearing a mask.

JoyV thanks, we know the Mask is more deadly than NO MASK AT ALL,thank again for this HONESTY. Know with out a doubt if FAUCI is promoting it, then only BAD THINGS can happen. Him an BILL GATES must be pushed aside if we are to get past this FAKE PANDEMIC.
