  • Face Mask ?

    Are you doing the Face Mask thing ? I wear one when in public places.
    I have some 3M N95 rated for now....

    Ordered some cheap ones via Amazon, back in February, turns out they are shipped from China.
    Bad move, still waiting on delivery of them (4/16).

    Are you using any kind of Face mask ?

    I suggest face masks for ugly people of both sexes. Besides they themselves are dangerous. If you want to know why ust say the word.

      Why?

      My wife made a mask for me out of a bandana. I wear it when I go shopping, but not when I walk about the neighborhood following social distancing.

          Why are masks dangerous? Well since I have shopping for quite a few families I thought I'd make it interesting for me. Not really being in any kind of rush I watched people while roaming around. I used a little clicker to record everytime I saw someone touch their face. You see people who are not used to wearing a mask tend to touch their faces far more often to adjust the masks than people wearing nothing, and I mean a lot more. Now those paper masks without a filter really stop nothing.The more you bring your hands to adjust the mask you're just inoculating the mask to whatever it is you've touched and then breathing it in.
          Now because they're wearing gloves they some how think that bringing their hands to their face is fine. Wrong. Next time you go out watch and observe

            I believe Cusp’s observations are accurate; however, health experts, including Fauci, advised that the mask helps to remind people not to touch their face.

            Perhaps the WHO can chime in on this. Oh, I forgot, we are not talking to the WHO any more.

                Neither is most of Europe. Seems they didn't do a very good ob but got paid very well. They actually did a very good ob covering for China while China spent the month of an and most of Feb buying up the worlds supply of PPE's. Do you think anyone got a kick back?????

                  And now they are ripping off the Americans charging ten fold for these things, orrrrr...is it the ugly greedy Americans who are ripping off ugly greedy Americans.

                  Yes, I wear a double mask. Our county has a hundred and some cases. I pray we keep it that way. A lot of the twenty to thirty year olds ARE NOT wearing masks. What do they know,
                  anyway? (Stayin' alive, do, do, de, dum, stayin' alive).

                    Folks are always touching their faces: Their noses, their eyes, their ears,their hair. Just
                    watch the folks talking on t.v. And see how many times the speaker, nervously, touches
                    a part of their head.

                        Wife and I use a mask and gloves every time we head out to the store. Use sanitizer on the same gloves if we are to go to several stores in the same day and then dispose of the gloves at the end of the trip - better safe then sorry as the saying goes.
