ugh CNN - fake news. Increased testing uncovers more and more, fudged testing for antibodies and suspected cases with no confirmation proof needed also increase numbers. CA has seen a modest uptick in hospitalizations, but almost all normal or acute care, Covid ICU numbers have been pretty stagnant despite "increased" cases. It may even lose its epidemic status if the death rate declines enough. Only path forward is herd immunity which we may reach after this "2nd wave" - good before going into winter flu season.

Look at all those cases....... 🤦

Yeah cause he was visiting wounded warriors. You can easily infect somebody with regular bacteria if they have open or healing wounds and you're in close proximity, leaning over or talking to them. That's actually the main use of surgical masks, they likely hardly prevent Covid-19 transmissions if you believe the airborne super-spreader stories. Try N95 at a minimum (better N99), again if you believe the airborne super-spreader stories.

Lots of salt-of-the-earth proud American TexMex people in that video too. The kind that Brd6 has mentioned on here.

Sick people should isolate while they're sick and only go out with a mask if they don't have anyone else who can get them stuff. Indoors masks are a good idea. Note though if it is airborne surgical masks won't help much. Theres a reason health care staff uses N95 or usually above up to full body suits. If we're risking overwhelming the hospitals we need to go into distancing / lockdown mode. Other than that we can only tell the vulnerable to stay distant til there's a guaranteed treatment or vaccine. And appeal to the sick - i.e. with symptoms regardless if diagnosed or not - to stay home til recovered.

The Dr. Denis Mukwege Foundation website claims that statement is false.

I agree it's gone way overboard but I do still support the idea in general.

I really can't support it, but will fall in line if a business denies me entrance. The problem I had was the "expert" Fauci said we didn't need masks for weeks. Hell was it over a month? So if masks weren't necessary, but now they are, he was wrong. Who now knows if needing a mask is right or wrong now? 99.9% of the time I don't wear one and have been socializing like normal now for a good month. Maybe I got it and was asymptomatic. There's also been questions on whether some asymptomatic can even transmit it to others.

I still only know 2 people that tested positive. As the days go by I'm also questioning if it was for attention seeking, as they're the type of people that want that. I question if they're telling the truth basically that they had it. My wife has a network of people (~1k) that she knows through work and not one person she knows has gotten it. Not one. Clinics and hospitals by us are completely dead, nothing going on. A mutual friend of my wife and I is a ER nurse down in TN. Nothing.

I can't get anecdotal evidence from everywhere, but the media 1,000% is hyping this. And sure, people may test positive, but if they're not going to hospitals, who gives a shit? I think it's been around since December at least and we didn't get the mask recommendation until late April and early May? Now cases are spiking while wearing them? All this shit doesn't add up.

And now that the death rate is approaching sub epidemic levels masks are mandatory? Forever?

Fuck the new normal!

Kids need to go to school. Sporting events, art shows, rallies, and concerts need to go on. Life and culture cannot be held hostage for a small percentage at risk who could easily self protect rather than shut down the economy.

Fuck the new normal.

If you fear for your life, wear a mask, stay home, take Gate's vaccine, but don't insist that I do under threat of life and liberty.

Now cases are spiking while wearing them? All this shit doesn't add up.

Yep. One report showed that CV virus can live long on cardboard, up to several days. Maybe all this Amazon and other shipping is what is causing the CV to spread. Everyone is catching it from all those cardboard box shipments right to their homes. Similar to the rats/fleas that vectored the plague.

Kids need to go to school.

This is the biggie for me. My kids are in their most important years of learning right now. I'm intelligent enough, but I don't have the patience for teaching and I'd be the one more likely to do it because of my wife's pay being higher than mine. Our district sent out a survey asking how parents felt with some loaded questions. Not one fucking question had them in school all day like normal.

We've put too much effort into raising our kids for them to be morons. Not that public school is the best format, but home schooling isn't an option. We've started looking at private schools at this point. Our kids need structure outside of parents. Need to be held accountable by other people. That can't happen with this e-learning bull shit. And there's no chance 7 year kids are just going to sit there for even 3 hours with a fucking mask on. It ain't gonna happen.

Unfortunately my taxes are escrowed because I don't want to think about it. But now is the time I'd love to miss a tax payment and sue the county and school district. They wouldn't be able to do a tax sale with ongoing litigation because I'm being forced to home school my kids and pay for services not provided. And I have the cash to pay back taxes and attorneys. We need to fight this bull shit.

Possible but unlikely and not responsible for the large rise. It's all the youngsters partying since they can't work or go to school. What do you expect from them they got nothing else to do.

The problem is new cases include those that tested positive for antibodies I thought? Those could be from Feb through June and are no longer able to spread the virus. So it doesn't matter.

Also, every time I go to a grocery store I'd say 85% of the customers are 65 and older. Maybe a touch hyperbolic, but not that far off from my experience. AARP and any other senior organization needs to be doing the hard sell that the oldies need to stay home. Have friends or family get your groceries.

You shouldn't be leaving the house. You are the ones overwhelming the 1 or 2 hospitals in the country the media likes to report. Stay home. Nah, they'll just wander around a grocery store in the middle of the isle so you essentially have to brush up against them to get by because they're fucking idiots. I hope to god I'm not as fucking dumb as the old people I see at the grocery store. Maybe the mind starts going after a while and you don't give a shit about other people.

So you are torn between believing the lying media and what you have seen with your own eyes and info from people that you actually know and trust? Maybe one weekend you will go somewhere like to the beach and actually see 1000 people there and then the media will say nobody was at the beach and you will start doubting your own eyes.

Yes that too. They changed to include positive antibody tests and also very suspected or very presumed cases where they await test results, that's why numbers often are corrected or differ. Yes many of those probably can't spread it so this is a retroactive count. Even the stupid old people you see are not that high at risk. Most new infections are youngsters partying cause it's fucking summer and with everything closed endless holidays. I bet you could clean up on dating apps right now and fuck many of the few hot chicks left pretending/signaling on IG to be social distancing (too bad I'm married). It literally means fuck! me! I'm lonely! People yearn for social contact, actually even karening/getting mad at someone for not wearing a mask or being rays! cyst! deep down is a cry for love and contact. The opposite of love is not hate but indifference. The media and leftoid globalist cultural marxists are just exploiting these needs to turn them into negative emotions and actions. That's what the youngsters are doing, partying, fucking and spreading the virus. Good for them. Gets us sooner to herd immunity.

I wear a mask a few minutes a day when I drive because where I live, the cops will use it as a excuse to pull you over and fine you...but I wear it as a chin warmer, mouth and nose uncovered...and thats how i wear it when I go to the store until I actuall get to the door where I pull it up so they will let me in.....once I leave the store, its back down warming my chin....ready for the drive home.

I mean if you were on your late teens to mid 20s would you let some white haired leftoid harridans or old leftoid governors with fuhrer ambitions take away your summer beach vacation parties, chicks, boobs and beer over a respiratory virus that has zero chance of killing people in your age bracket? Fuck No. Party on Wayne.

Got it.
But what could possibly be the rationale for fining someone for not wearing a mask in their own car?

I can imagine a day when the special police stop you on the street and ask, "Show me your vaccination papers".

Here in SF the public is being riled up against people not wearing masks. it's Orwellian so of course those are all bullshit orders but everyone has a breaking point. Going out on a run now - I'm already avoiding people in my way but I can hear them sneering. Ready to kickbox my way through though while letting loose a few coughs. They are all leftoid sheep who have literally zero understanding of science but infinite subordination hunger for their leftoid big government. It's a shame what happened to the once "free" and "free-spirited" city of SF. Hippies got old, fearful and angry.

Not gonna lie, legitimately confused with what you're saying. My own eyes tell me there's not a pandemic. Not that it doesn't exist, I'm just personally not seeing it having traveled during it and knowing people in other states. I've anchored up at a sand bar in Wisconsin with at least 100 boats around, so probably 500-1k people there. Based on percentages and math, there's almost no way you'll die from this. It's almost zero for anyone say 60 or under. I'll look for data, but deaths under 60 I'm guessing are under 1k and most of those had preexisting conditions. So whatever...

About 23,000 deaths under 65 years old. Less than 1,000 under 35. No breakdown of those dying from Covid-19 vs those dying with Covid-19.

You diging up the year old videos, that the Commies have been using to gaslight useful idiots into thinking they are doing some just work.

Sort of like by this time next year, these same Shit Finger Commies will be saying the Catholic prayer group that mugged and beaten last week at the Statue protest was a Right wing hate group. The Left are dishonest and everyone sees through it.
