RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Face Masks.... more common sense
RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Face Masks.... more common senseIt's a big deal because it's a +1. You still have cancer, gunshot wounds, seasonal flu and NOW +COVID 19. Also, you can probably get it more than once just like seasonal flu. Once you get it, your antibodies don't protect you for life. They expect a second wave in October. The problem is it spreads so fast it can overburden the healthcare system making the death rate much higher. Look at this update report website from John Hopkins, Italy has a 12.5% death rate because their healthcare system is already overburdened. Spain, France, and the UK are at around a 10% death rate. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html

The people supposedly protecting us now have no credibility as they failed to have regimes in place, incl inventory, post SARS, like Tiawan and others, and failed to heed China alerts in Dec.
What make them so competent now?
Easy to drive 100s MNs into poverty and bankruptcy from a protected govt salary and golden pension based on a geeks model and a mere 0.0001% infection rate which means in Canada have twice the chance of getting hit by ligntning LOL.
At least they should audit all decision makers in govt for self betterment incl families and relations arising from the 100s BNs spent, incl insider trading.

Shouldn't they be wearing NBC charcoal filtered gas masks instead? Are you telling me you are smarter on this topic than a medical doctor??

Use your common sense.
wheeloffortune wrote: You have zero common sense. Evaporation works through steam. The human body doesn't release steam (you've been watching too many cartoons). Respiratory droplets with COVID 19 on it are propelled through the air by air pressure from our lungs and fall to the ground like a cannon ball with a range of 6'. That's why the CDC recommends a social distance of 6 feet. It's not air borne like a fart--it doesn't move through the air like a fart.

You ever see how a humidifier works?? It shoots a mist of water in the air. It evaporates even before it hits the ground.
wheeloffortune wrote: Wrong. CDC says the virus is not airborne, it only exists on floating water droplets which is why the N95 is effective for that size of particle matter. When you cough or sneeze, the virus is released in water droplets--the virus doesn't float alone in air. On surfaces, it lives in bacteria up to 24 hours. It cannot survive alone. Concentration affecting life or death again is nonsense, as it can replicate really fast if the immune system doesn't respond properly. Where are you getting this from??
Preexisting conditions plays a large role whether you live or die. What they've found is the highest risk factor is morbid obesity, a BMI of 30+ or 40 lbs overweight because your lungs aren't large enough to handle the spread. Dr. Vuong's collegue in NY found 70% of patients who have no other preexisting conditions were hooked up to ventillators only had morbid obesity in common. His collegue in NY has patients in their 30s hooked up to ventilators with no other condition than morbid obesity, 40+ lbs overweight. It's not an old person virus. Watch this video explaining what COVID-19 is and how it can kill you from a Dr. Duc Vuong, a general surgeon from Texas who wrote 13 books. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J0d59dd-qM

But it does provide some protection. Some is better than NONE. It can reduce the amount (concentration) of viruses entering your body. Concentration of initial infection probably plays a large role in how bad you get, if you live or die.
Face Mask best use probably is for the infected person to wear it. Stoping/reducing the spread at its source.
And since we don't know who's infected or not, best everyone wear a mask.
Some protection is better than none. Some prevention is better than none.
