I just had a second family member pass from this awful virus. It doesn’t matter where it came from or who caused it .... just please wear a mask when in public. It’s not a political thing ... it doesn’t cost you anything. But it could save your grands. This is my second time begging y’all please just wear one and stop being an asshole.

really, truly sorry for your loss.
Might help not to call people anuses if you are trying to persuade them. You want to help, not hit them, right?

Im terribly sorry for your loss. I’ve lost multiple family members to this thing as well. Unfortunately, wearing a mask (basic common sense for non-assholes) has been politicized to the point that a segment of people refuse to wear one just to prove a point. Other people’s health/lives be damned.

Got a better chance of getting struck by lightning in Costco than getting COVID while shopping in any store. Continue wearing your bacteria trap that was laying in your car seat or in your pocket all day though.

The lack of social awareness and insensitivity is striking. You’re entitled to your opinion, but OP just shared about having a SECOND family member die due the virus. Your best post would be to just not share your opinion in response to his lament.

Statistics don't matter if that is your personal narrative. even if the statistics are true, there is a time and place to share it. This is not it.

maybe try “ I’m sorry for your loss, OP”

Very sorry for your loss. I thank Him for sparing my son. The wife and I wear a mask because common sense prevails. Prayers sent.

Seriously.... What is wrong with some of you people? Wearing masks and social distancing efforts can reduce the spread of the virus and save lives.

The virus is real, and it is deadly to vulnerable parts of our population.

Learn how to use a washer and show some respect and compassion for your fellow Americans.

Sorry for the loss of your loved ones. I see wearing a mask as showing respect for your fellow citizens. There is so much we don't know about this virus and everyone who refuses to wear masks only seem to think (if they even think) about the low number of deaths in comparison to the total number of cases, but what about the long term effects on the body?

Really sorry for your losses. It's a very simple thing to wear a mask. I will continue to follow the science and medical professionals as opposed to the politicians who only care about themselves and getting re-elected or elected.

This is simply not true... You have very little chance of being struck by lighting in Costco. You have a decent chance of catching COVID if you are around it. So that part of your statement is just silly (which I assume you meant it to be). Every infectious disease expert in the country says that wearing a mask and socially distancing is a good idea. So please tell us Dr. where are your credentials or if you aren't an infectious disease expert, name your sources that say wearing a mask doesn't work.

Now if you catch COVID, you have a really good chance to survive it. You have a really good chance to not have any long term effects b/c of it. But we are working toward a quarter of a million of your fellow Americans dying from it... That's NOT a "bad flu" season.

Not going to happen bro... they have learned from their new Lord and Savior that respect, compasion, and all those silly type things are for suckers.

Idiots like you and Cocksucker#1 and jimbobblowhard are the problem in this country. You turn something that helps protect people into a political issue and criticize those that actually abide by the rules. If you actually looked at any real numbers, you'd realize how stupid your post was. And to post your bull crap on a post where someone is encouraging people to be safe because he/she has lost two family members to this virus is very telling of your character. Let me ask you one question: have more than 230,000 people been killed by lightning strikes at Costco in the last 8 months? I'll help you out and save you the time of researching on your etch-a-sketch: the US averages 49 lightning strike deaths a year.
 
Sorry for your loss.

I just got over having it. Luckily it wasn't bad. We had a family dinner while I was in SC a few weeks ago, where apparently we got it from my brother. He admitted that they'd had an outbreak in his office, 11 of 25 employees tested positive. And he's not much of a mask wearer. So seven of us became positive.

Luckily my 83 year old mother and 78 year old step father were only mildly ill like the rest of us. Wonder how he'd have felt if we weren't so lucky.

Dude, The OP has lost two family members. When he says assholes, he's not referring to people who socially distance and wear masks. He's referring to those assholes who refuse to believe that the virus is a serious problem. He's referring to the people whose behavior has contributed to the continued spread of the virus. He's referring to the people whose behavior has contributed to our economy being closed down longer than would have been necessary if we were all taking the proper precautions.

It’s real, yes. It’s also been highly politicized.

There's a better version of you than the one that tap dances all over someone's grief with a bunch of sarcasm. The mask definitively improves statistics that you won't unknowingly transmit the virus in stores or other indoor places to other people. Wearing a mask for 1 day and wa

Wearing a mask for 1 day and washing it prevents any chance of you getting a bug from a dirty mask.

Very sorry for your loss. Thankfully, I have had no family members or friends die from this. I had it myself and had VERY mild symptoms.

What I can't understand, if you watch the news, the US is the only country suffering right now from this damn thing. China...no problem. Something is wrong with that picture. I believe that our data is being inflated, and some other counties data is being sandbagged!!! Or if not, then we are the only country full of bunch of dumb-asses!!!

China definitely lied about their numbers...WAY on the low side. But, India, Brazil, UK, Spain, France, Chile, etc., etc. are all suffering from this virus as bad as we are. Other than China, it doesn't appear that any other countries are sandbagging numbers.

lol the last word in OP’s post was ”asshole”. Not exactly an endearing type and certainly not a post to warrant restraint against facts.
 
Sorry for your loss OP... the loss of any family member hurts...prayers sent!

At the same time, coming here to 'not play politics' & calling people a-holes isn't exactly the way to garner a lot of sympathy...

Look, my grandmother passed last October...she had been battling lung cancer & ended up getting the flu which ultimately led to her passing...I did not come here telling everyone they were a-holes for not wearing mask during flu season ...I just realized that she was elderly & it was simply her time. Fact is, the vast majority of us aren't gonna go peacefully in our sleep...most will get sick or have some sort of health issue that will ultimately lead to our passing...I think many have forgotten that this is just the way it is in this past year...none of us will live forever...just be right with our Lord Jesus Christ when your time comes...

I can read, and the longer the post goes the more accurate his word choice appears.

People often have to progress through stages of anger during grief. Mine in a cooler and calmer moment he will regret his word choice. But at this moment I imagine he is feeling validated.

a Clemson man would just let the post go rather than feel like they have to provide a counter point. This isn’t a “last word wins” contest.
 
I’ve been trying to catch this shit since March but have been unsuccessful. You know just to get it over with. Have yet wear a mask except one time when I had a doctors appointment. Everyone’s going to come in contact with it eventually. Might as well go ahead and get it imo.

No
 
I would like some hard data on the lightening in Costco claim. I can’t find a single incidence.
Fortunately it has been easy for me to conform. I don’t like to go anywhere anyway. And I spent 1976-2020 wearing masks daily so I don’t mind continuing a few years after retirement. I think this is all serious and when you don’t know for sure err toward safety.
