Dear mom's that make their adult children (15+) not wear masks:

 

You should feel ashamed at your self's for not encouraging good practices of wearing masks. Then talking rude smack back to the kroger employee like it is bull shi-t. Like how it isn't my responsibility to tell me how to raise my damn child. I'm sorry but to endanger your children like that is irresponsible in a pandemic where your child could be infected then drop dead from a deadly virus. By allowing your adult children to not wear masks also places employees at risk. Well fu-ck you.! Just to let you know our positive rates at my store is going up because you jerks won't encourage good practices of wearing masks and it might question your role as a parent. You should be more cautious in the well being of your child. Don't tell me it's not fake because we get 3-4 positive cases a month at my store from damn fu-cken anti maskers. Our positive rates keep increasing and staff is too afraid to show up to work. Sorry but I hope corna comes to your house hold and you learn what the fu-ck it is like to be the shi--tty person getting the turn around.

 

You can reply if you want but you're only proving my point about how anti maskers are di-cks.

 Your post is based on the FALSE premise that wearing masks (especially cloth masks) actually help prevent transmission of the virus. They do not. They may help a bit, but in general, they are close to USELESS.  The states/areas with the strongest mandates and compliance with the masks and social distancing are exploding with new cases.  (Southern CA, anyone?) ) Obviously, masks do not work.  You have been sorely brainwashed by the "Maskers".  Start by learning the REAL science (not influenced by any subtle political agenda).............. viruses are extremely tiny particles. They float through the air. They go right through masks like a mosquito flies through a chain-link fence.   

In any case, nearly everybody that dies with the Covid had some pre-existing health problems. Diabetes, heart disease, extreme hypertension, emphysema, COPD, obesity, smoking, heavy drinking, drug use, etc.   

99.99 percent of our young children will be fine. Get a grip. Don't stay in your house and "hide under the covers" like the typical liberal snowflakes who don't understand the real world, and believe everything the corrupt mass media wants to drill into your gullible brain.

Can you prove that those positive cases were caused by people not wearing masks?  No, you can't. For all you know, those people could have caught the virus from someone who was wearing a mask.  Can you even prove that those cases were a result of working in the store?  No, you can't.  Anyway, in how many of those positive cases did the person even get sick?

Can you prove that those pregnancies were caused by people not wearing condoms? No, you can't. For all you know, those people could have become pregnant from someone who was wearing a condom. Can you even prove that those pregnancies were a result of ****ing in the store?  No, you can't. Anyway, in how many of those ****ings did the person even get pregnant?

 And your point is?

I love all the deniers on here...The numbers are going up and it will probably be worse before it gets better...The vaccine is out there, but until all of us gets it, which is gonna have to be 80-90% of the population, we are ALL gonna be dealing with this for some time to come! Like it or not, we must face reality, people! The virus is real, denial is real and no amount of chanting "fake news! fake news!" is gonna change that! People who chant fake news all the time just don't want to hear all the credible sources out there telling them how it REALLY is...It's gonna get to the point that anyone who shouts "FAKE NEWS!" is going to be automatically drowned out by the reality of the world situation...The FACTS will override all doubts! The "fake news deniers" just want to save face all the time, so they don't have to admit that they're wrong, because admitting a screw-up in their eyes is tantamount to failure as a person for futilely believing in a fraudulent, dangerous mindset, and people can't be seen as flawed human beings, right???

 The numbers are inflated. Dive deeper instead of watching and reading fake news. Its a ploy to steal your freedom.

Dawn Wells had health problems for years. They count every COVID death as such even when that wasnt the cause. Thats how they inflate the numbers. Also, she was past the average life span. At her age the common cold could kill you.

 I always loved Dawn Wells. She was as nice in real life as the character she played,  Mary Ann,  in Gilligan's Island.  RIP Dawn.   And I have doubts about whether it was really Covid that killed her too.

 I prefer the step down also like on The Brady Bunch. Even though Marcia is hot, I like Jan better. 

Back on subject.

The one I'm really suspicious about is Dawn Wells.  She was fine on Christmas Day, but then she's dead four days later?  The cause of death is listed as "Covid related".  What does that even mean?  Was her death directly caused by Covid or did she just happen to have Covid when she died?  Anytime someone dies and the cause could have possibly  been caused by Covid, it's assumed that that's what killed them.  That's not necessarily true.

Yes Hospitals are using COVID to get money. Someone is shot they go to the hospital the hospital will put COVID-19 Related.

 Nope. Do some research, not just what the government tells you.

---

 The latest research says that masks help lower the risk of spread in those who do not yet know they are infected but do very little to protect those who are wearing it. With an up to 2 week incubation period cutting the virus' ability to unknowingly spread can be an important factor in controlling it and lowering death tolls.

If you are wearing your mask properly it could also help you not touch your face and eyes, generally how the virus enters the body. However it depends on you wearing it properly and not having it just over your mouth while including you not touch it like some child. If you know for a fact that you 1) do not have the virus and 2) are going to be wearing it properly then it could slightly lower your chance of infection.

The mask is not a cure-all and you still need to follow distancing as well as frequent hand-washing to maintain the highest level of risk management. That being said: Wearing a mask while actively not touching your face is part of COVID best practices and is there to help mitigate spread, not for active infection prevention.

For more information you can check out the CDC's website on mask wearing in the general public at (links to actual studies are provided at the bottom of the page): https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/cloth-face-cover-guidance.html

 How do they actually know it lowers the risk of someone spreading the virus to others?  I've seen all the high speed photographs of someone sneezing with and without a mask, but that only shows the particles we can see.  Viruses are invisible unless viewed under a powerful electron microscope.  For all we know, those viruses could be passing right through the mask.  If someone catches the virus, they cannot prove they caught it because someone else wasn't wearing a mask.  Nor can they prove that they wouldn't have caught the virus if the person had been wearing a mask.

---

 All research points to the virus being spread by attaching to the particles that humans breathe out, due to the virus being a respiratory infection that sticks to the lungs, throat, mouth and nose. We don't release the virus stand-alone nor is it airborne as it doesn't seem to attach to air molecules once released. It can persist for several minutes, hours, or days outside the body depending on the surfaces that the particles land on. That's where mask wearing comes into play, it restricts the room that moisture particles can escape without restricting inward airflow. You're blocking the moisture in your breath from escaping to your surroundings, as much as possible, and not the air which you breathe. Some moisture particles can linger in the air and harm people you're nowhere near. Moisture is FAR larger than air and depending on the type of mask you are using can block a fair number of moisture particles from reaching you if you happen to walk into a lingering mass of virus laden particles. However it's more likely that you'll touch a surface, get the virus on your fingers and touch your eyes, nose, or mouth and contract the virus that way.

All that and the case for asymptomatic people is why there is a heavy focus on mask wearing, distancing, and frequent sanitization/hand washing.

The cdc information is also echo'd by several sources outside of the US, including China.

I guess I must be one of the lucky ones that has a strong natural immunity against the virus.  My siblings and I have all gotten together in each others homes.  We were all together at Christmas and we're from four different households.  We didn't "social distance" either.  Some of us have even been in contact with someone who has tested positive for the virus and have not caught the virus ourselves.  I may or may not be in that group.  The mask I wear is pretty flimsy.  It's actually a disposable mask that I wash over and over again.  The only time you'll see me wearing it is when customers can see me.

 Even if we were talking about stats (we're not) you'd be incredibly disingenuous by bringing "fearmongering" into this conversation. If you don't want to wear a mask then just don't, be an idiot and belligerent while ignoring everything - That would be your choice as a free human. Just realize that you may potentially be part of the problem that has the potential to kill other humans, even yourself. That's also your choice. Stay safe.

 I chose to ignore FAKE NEWS like the one your posting. Again the stats are over bloated and inaccurate and false. The fear mongering is really old and yall need to stop with it.
