I sneezed with my mask/face covering on yesterday and held my hand up.  Nothing seemed to come through.  I was surprised.

Isn't it ironic (or sickening) how much PPE is manufactured in China and shipped to other countries ... and widely used?

I agree with you, wearing a mask means breathing in your own CO2 and that to me seems worse than risking getting the virus.

It will stop the really big ones and you should be happy because those big one are so fat they can't fly over a 4 foot fence. So they would just sit on you and suck the blood out of you like a juice container ? 

I did notice that in the beautiful country of Canada, HUGE mosquitoes...NO Pennies and those weird 2 dollar coins and plastic cash.  Strange place

We should wear only what is made here for PPE.  No China....THEY CAUSED THIS TO SELL MORE PPE!!!!   It is so simple.  Just follow the money.   So, who makes masks here, 100% N.American?   HMMMMM  This is a challenge

So the mask I'm wearing at the top is actually super paper thin and unfortunately its all that we are given to use but its effective for the droplets that Pete was talking about, and on the bottom is the PPE gear which is once again very see through and what Pete said is very true.

If masks were so harmful to people then tell me why and how Dr's wear them for extended periods during surgery and haven't ever bitched about too much Co2 in their system or not enough oxygen intake? Masks are now being urged for 3 reasons, first they protect others from your crud and second we now have enough to go around. When this first hit they told people not to wear masks or they would have had the part of their garage not filled with butt wipe filled with PPE. and 3rd this is a new virus strain and the Medical world is learning more and more about it every day. The worst thing anyone ever said about Covid-19 was "Young people can't get it" yes they can and they spread it like my ex wife spread her legs, easy and often. PS Covid Positive in mid March and still have side effects

Nope not at all, I was fairly wide open back then and we had a relationship that didn't have many rules except attachments. Everything was safe and no strings, we had a ton of fun before she passed.

If you actually watch this video, please lets not attack the messanger. Attack or debate the meassage, state your facts and opinions. I only refering to the first part of this video I don't think its political but it brings forth some interesting view points concerning effectiveness of masks. I myself wear one to potentialy not to infect others and out of respect for others too. This is an American problem not a Dem or Repub issue. I think anyone who uses the for any political gain is a flaming puke.

So how is it that I got this virus from a direct co-worker in parts dept. under 30 who was not really showing many symptoms as well as the 5 other positive tests results of shop techs (also under 30 "they all lunched together" I didn't) back in Mid March when our State was the center of cases? If there is no virus shed as she quotes in this piece how is it spreading? My New Doctor who is a  Pulmonologist and actually studied Medicine stated when I got my secondary lung infection in late May said there was no reason to retest me for Covid-19 because studies are showing virus shed for up to 3 months after the fact. Some have said I can't get it again because of antibodies yet I wear a mask when around people out of respect for my fellow human beings and since I live in the US that means Americans. I could say FU I am immune but truth is they don't know for sure and won't for quite some time. This woman is a Lawyer who is semi attractive, if she was average or below that would anyone care about her opinions? She picks a few small studies that prove her point. Who uses the medical experts in Vietnam a Communist Country BTW as a reason to argue about American medicine?  I could go on for hours about this since I am living it but this woman is the last person to get guidance from. Plus need I remind you with regards to her final thought "We gave up far more of our American Freedoms after 9-11 and the Patriot Act was made law" but that was during a time when they wrapped things in the flag and you couldn't say no for fear of looking anti-american. And I don't want to hear the old "It's my body and you are violating it and my rights" from people who want to tell women they can't choose what they want to do with a product of rape or incest. Love you Ted but we disagree on this one just a wee bit. PS we sold tons of PPE to China just as the news of it here was breaking so masks were in very short supply, tell us to use them and the hoarding would have begun in February when you couldn't wipe your ass

I just don't get it. The overwelming data and studies show how effective masks are. If  that wasnt the case (like Phuckitman said) why would surgeons, nurses and other hospital staff wear them or wear any PPE.

The reason the CDC changed course (which of course the video conveniently doesnt show) is that the original CDC guidance partly was based on what was thought to be low disease prevalence earlier in the pandemic. We all thought it couldnt spread to the EU and North America but that was not the case.  What is worse and so concerning is both pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic transmission are possible – even common. Studies have found that viral load peaks in the days before symptoms begin and that speaking is enough to expel virus-carrying droplets.

Also remember, this video article is from a news pundit and is there to editorialize the news to push a narrative. That is very important for this typically is not found on your nightly 6pm news, they stick to facts.

She says this working from home in her basement!  That is what I told my dad.  Watch her all you want, but don't believe anything out of their mouths about the virus until they are working back in the Fox news studio.
