You have folks who won’t simply because they “don’t like it” or selfishly believe the disease is not going to hurt them so why bother. Either way they are missing the point that no preventative measure, other than quarantining, is not 100%, but if adhered to lessen the probability of spreading the disease. Crazy concept that we might take measures to help those out around us, and if we all did that, it actually would help with a faster return to “normalcy.”There are people who actually dispute that masks don’t work? I mean they may not be 100% effective, but there’s no doubt a mask will offer some reduction in transmissibility of a communicable airborn virus.
I thought we all hated them because they suck, not because we thought they’re ineffective.
I have an N95 I wear when I go to the grocery store
Yeah I know. I’ve probably worn it for a total of 30-45 minutes. Just looked it up and they can last up to 8 hours so we GucciJust a heads up N95 masks DO EXPIRE. You cannot simply wear the same N95 over and over.
No masks.
I see people wearing a mask, and I think “they watch CNN”
If worn properly, thE N95 mask protects people from being infected

If properly worn? Most didnt even know what a N95 mask was before this or that by OSHA standards of you don’t conduct a fit test before wearing it isn’t even properly worn. And fit test, like lots of PPE supplies out there, are not easily obtained with proper FDA and plant certifications but hey...I have a N95 mask

Just as a i predicted, we will have people walking around and mentally (or overtly) shaming others for wearing masks. People like this are the problem, not someone who chooses to wear a mask for any particular reason
An obese couple made fun of my mask as I was walking out of Home Depot a few weeks ago. I’m wearing this hot, uncomfortable mask all through this hardware store for people with underlying conditions like you, jack wagons. Unbelievable.I literally got called a pussy in the publix's parking lot yesterday because I was wearing a mask. First of all, they mumbled it, which makes me believe they were just projecting their feelings about themselves. I just shook my head in disbelief as I walked to my car. People are ridiculous.
I have been amazed at the number of people I have seen in public with a N95 mask that are not fitted properly.Many providers across the country had to recycle their N95 masks for a large portion of March and into April because there weren’t enough. I know I did.
Trumps only half as divisive as Obama and the main stream media. Unfortunately, the media profits off of this.The fact that Covid-19 has become political is one of the tragic results of our time.
The virus had the potential to unify a country past their differences. Instead, it has just divided us further.
This is because we have an incredibly divisive president who doesn't claim responsibility for his actions, and an incompetent democratic party without conviction who can't get out of their own way.
The result is millions of people who believe covid is a hoax, masks dont work, old people should die, etc...all because they heard it on some news show or read it on the internet.
Both sides believe awful and unreasonable things and justify it by talking about the awful unreasonable things the other side believes.
I wear a mask inside places, not just for myself, but to make other people feel comfortable. The question I have, is are you one of those people that wear your mask in your car?An obese couple made fun of my mask as I was walking out of Home Depot a few weeks ago. I’m wearing this hot, uncomfortable mask all through this hardware store for people with underlying conditions like you, jack wagons. Unbelievable.
Didn’t know about that, just threw it away and will now be going maskless since you know betterdid you do a fit test and do you know how to properly use it? Sanitize it? If not you’re wasting it and it’s not doing anything. People have no clue what a N95 mask is or how to use...but hey...you have a N95 mask and it sounds cool
I’ve been wearing a snorkel and scuba mask is that sufficient ?
Seems like your issue is with people having masks who didn’t have a fit test and don’t know how to wear them properly, instead of the role that an N95 masks serves, which was really the point of my original post...
That is such a bullshit line. Have you watched Gov Cuomo, CNN, or MSNBC? Talk about a war on knowledge!!Trumpers war on knowledge never stops

He is exhibit A.
exhibit A? Hahaha
yeah well I am headed to a meeting with clinicians to redo their formulary and guess what...not a one of us will be wearing a mask.
it’s amazing how I haven’t worn one, didn’t really quarantine, been out and about the entire time working and shopping, around healthcare professionals in the post acute arena and not one person I’ve hung out with or been around has had it and not many have worn mask unless seeing patients
This virus is no more deadly than the flu, perhaps less, for someone my age. I am not going to wear a mask, just as I was not wearing a mask before this all started.
Has anyone studied the long term continual use of a mask? I don’t think it is healthy, and is probably more detrimental To my health than being exposed to a virus.
My liberal friend are even concerned with mask wearing. Do you want your infant being supervised by people with masks? Facial expressions are very important to children, is there a link to autism?
there is nothing about this virus that should cause rash decision making. It needs to stop, now.
there will be football this fall with or without masks, and it will be at full capacity. Masks will slowly fade into The ether in .... about 2-3 weeks.

No troll. The info is out there. It’s not my responsibility to find it for you. Do a little reading
This. I quarantined for about 3 days just before Easter.
Since then (been listening to the Stanford guy all along) I have been to grocery stores, Lowe’s, or other public place almost everyday. No masks, no gloves, no hand sanitizer.
Still here, no problems.
I am so glad I am not this stupidThis virus is no more deadly than the flu, perhaps less, for someone my age. I am not going to wear a mask, just as I was not wearing a mask before this all started.

I'm so glad that you are here to correct the multiple MDs that have posted in this thread before you. I'm sure that your knowledge from selling drugs / medical supplies / medical equipment and interactions with doctors makes you a much better expert on this subject than the people who are trained as physicians.

No one said you needed to wear one all the time.....I certainly don't. I only wear one in the grocery store or wal mart/target....any place where I'm likely to be around the elderly or people I don't know with comorbidities. It's not that hard and it takes almost no effort on my part.
You always get triggered by the people who talk about wearing N-95 masks, but that's not the real issue here IMO, especially considering 99% of the general public doesn't have an N-95 mask.
I talk to physicians all the time as well. Lots of differing opinions out there and I’ve also stated my opinion could be very wrong. I’m an adult and I make my decisions on situations based on the facts in front of me.
Trey Dubose, whom is one of the MDs who posted is a long time friend. Just because his opinion differs from mine doesn’t change that I respect his.
I’ve seen nothing that justifies people losing jobs, business’ closing, and a complete shut down. Suicide numbers are gonna spike as I’ve stated. The government can’t buy us out of this economic crisis forever.
