How long until we no longer have to wear masks?

[Markle]

As I have pointed out, a mask is not to stop the virus, but to slow the chances of spreading it, when coupled with 6ft of separation and constant hand washing or sanitizing.

What part of a cloth mask does nothing to slow or prevent a virus from passing right through do you not understand, and why?

NO ONE, in the general public, you know, private citizens have anything close to an N95 mask. Why do you demand to ignore the fact that cloth masks are useless? Do you demand that people believe that cigarettes are perfectly safe and do not cause cancer?

Many Studies Find That Cloth Masks Do Not Stop Viruses Like COVID
By Lisa Mair
NOVEMBER 23, 2020

A thorough marketing campaign for the use of low-quality masks has convinced millions of people that masks will reduce COVID-19 spread, but do they really?

Much Recent Pro-Mask Research Is Deeply Flawed
The only statistically significant data on preventing viral spread is for N95 masks worn indoors when one can’t socially distance, which is not the type of mask required nor typically worn by the general public.

Thank you

My prediction is that after a few months of Biden pretending to do stuff, the cdc will change how they count is done to lower the count so that Biden can declare victory.


Sometime in the summer, so that Biden can be given credit for the end of the disease and the economic rebound.

Europe's Top Health Officials Say Masks Aren't Helpful in Beating COVID-19
The top medical experts in the world can’t decide if masks are helpful in reducing the spread of COVID-19 or just make things worse.
Thursday, August 6, 2020

Denmark boasts one of the lowest COVID-19 death rates in the world. As of August 4, the Danes have suffered 616 COVID-19 deaths, according to figures from Johns Hopkins University.

That’s less than one-third of the number of Danes who die from pneumonia or influenza in a given year.

Despite this success, Danish leaders recently found themselves on the defensive. The reason is that Danes aren’t wearing face masks, and local authorities for the most part aren’t even recommending them.

Public health officials in Denmark, Holland, and beyond say they have no intention of recommending face coverings, saying the science does not support it. “Face masks in public places are not necessary, based on all the current evidence,” said Coen Berends, spokesman for the National Institute...

CDC Study Finds Overwhelming Majority Of People Getting Coronavirus Wore Masks
OCTOBER 12, 2020 By Jordan Davidson

A Centers for Disease Control report released in September shows that masks and face coverings are not effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19, even for those people who consistently wear them.

A study conducted in the United States in July found that when they compared 154 “case-patients,” who tested positive for COVID-19, to a control group of 160 participants from health care facilities who were symptomatic but tested negative, over 70 percent of the case-patients were contaminated with the virus and fell ill despite “always” wearing a mask.

In truth, we wish masks worked. If they did, it would be a cheap, and easy way to control the spread of Covid. The idea that they protect not only their wearer, but also those people around them seems noble. We wished masks worked because citizens are spending billions of dollars on them.

We wish masks worked because most Americans wear them now. Telling them it was unnecessary will not make them happy. We wish masks worked because they have become a symbol for virtue and social responsibility. Anyone who doubts their utility is personally attacked; as though they don’t believe the viral pandemic is real, or don’t care about those who die from it.

Old misinformation!

The Danes are in complete lockdown! I guess that non mask wearing they claim in your article, didn't work!

Now all is completely shut down but grocers.... k-4TH grade will finally be reopened this week.

In Denmark, some school classes resume amid lockdown easing

Danish schools on Monday resumed teaching younger children — from pre-school to the fourth grade — as Denmark has seen a steady reduction in COVID-19 infection numbers in recent weeks

abcnews.go.com

Most any masks will block a significant amount of the virus being expel but they do not do as good a job blocking incoming virus particles because most of the masks do not fit tight enough and most masks are not made well enough.

The main reason masks work is because most of the virus when expelled rides on respiratory droplets which are far larger than the virus itself. They are simply caught in the mask when you exhale. How much is trapped by the mask depends on how it's made. A simple bandana will stop only about 20% of the droplets. A double layer surgical mask or double layer cloth mask will stop about 50% to 70%. An N95 mask will stop up to 95% of the particles with the added bonus that if properly fitted, it will stop most of incoming particles.

The likelihood that exposure to the virus will result in illness depend on how much of the virus you are exposed to (viral load). So if you are in a room with infected people and they are wearing double layer cloth masks, then virus in the room will be down 50% to 70% less than if they were not wearing the masks. Masks do work, but they're not perfect. Scientist say if everyone had an ample supply on N95 masks and wore them when they should, we would eliminate the virus in about a mouth.

I think it will take Pelosi to gather up her Politburo and take a vote on when it suits them to lift the mask order, I don't figure anything will happen until the commies think it's done helping them politically. Nothing is for real with these Democrats lowlifes. It's all about politics with them.

could all start wearing PEDOPHILE BIDEN MUST GO or something else that the dems hate masks which might make the dems want to get rid of masks.

The Spanish flu lasted around two years. Even with a vaccine, it could take another year or two to get everyone vaccinated.

you are assuming everyone want to get vaccinated

Well first of all it's not really a vaccine. But yes, you are correct I won't be getting the experimental mRNA in me even if they make it mandatory. It will be over my dead body.

COVID-19 mRNA Shots Are Legally Not Vaccines

• By referring to COVID-19 vaccines as “vaccines” rather than gene therapies, the U.S. government is violating its 15 U.S. Code Section 41, which regulates deceptive practices in medical claims

Here's How Dr. Fauci Tricked the U.S.

Since 2003, Fauci has been responsible for civilian biodefense research, but there is no oversight. What can the citizens do to correct this?

Everyone doesn't need the vaccine.

70% to 80%, not everyone, but if the new variants are more infectious as claims then likely the 80% will be needed for SO called herd immunity...

But truly, I don't think we will ever have a future without COVID deaths, this virus is the mother of all mothers of viruses.... smart as ever could be.... and so far the virus and army of strong variants is winning....

That's BS..........

Phantom Virus: In Search of Sars-CoV-2


Even the Robert Koch Institute and other health authorities cannot present decisive proof that a new virus named SARS-CoV-2 is haunting us. This alone turns the talk of dangerous viral mutations into irresponsible fearmongering and the so-called SARS-CoV-2 PCR tests definitely into a worthless venture.

In a request for a study which shows complete isolation and purification of the particles claimed to be SARS-CoV-2, Michael Laue from one of the world’s most important representatives of the COVID-19 “panicdemic,” the German Robert Koch Institute (RKI), answered that:


I am not aware of a paper which purified isolated SARS-CoV-2.

This is a more than remarkable statement, it is admitting a complete failure. This concession is in line with the statements we presented in our article “COVID-19 PCR Tests Are Scientifically Meaningless” which OffGuardian published on June 27th, 2020 — a piece that was the first one worldwide outlining in detail why SARS-CoV-2 PCR tests are worthless for the diagnosis of a viral infection.

One of the crucial points in this analysis was that the studies contending to have shown that SARS-CoV-2 is a new and potentially deadly virus have no right to claim this, particularly because the studies claiming “isolation” of so-called SARS-CoV-2 in fact failed to isolate (purify) the particles said to be the new virus.

This is confirmed by the answers of the respective studies’ scientists to our inquiry, which are shown in a table in our piece — among them the world’s most important paper when it comes to the claim of having detected SARS-CoV-2 (by Zhu et al.), published in the New England Journal of Medicine on February 20, 2020, and now even the RKI.

Incidentally, we are in possession of a further confirmatory answer from authors of an Australian study

and like hell would I take a chance and choose not to wear a mask if there was a chance that the mask captures some of the viral load coming out of my mouth and nose if I were infected, which could infect or kill one less person....

Most any masks will block a significant amount of the virus being expel but they do not do as good a job blocking incoming virus particles because most of the masks do not fit tight enough and most masks are not made well enough.

The main reason masks work is because most of the virus when expelled rides on respiratory droplets which are far larger than the virus itself. They are simply caught in the mask when you exhale. How much is trapped by the mask depends on how it's made. A simple bandana will stop only about 20% of the droplets. A double layer surgical mask or double layer cloth mask will stop about 50% to 70%. An N95 mask will stop up to 95% of the particles with the added bonus that if properly fitted, it will stop most of incoming particles.

The likelihood that exposure to the virus will result in illness depend on how much of the virus you are exposed to (viral load). So if you are in a room with infected people and they are wearing double layer cloth masks, then virus in the room will be down 50% to 70% less than if they were not wearing the masks. Masks do work, but they're not perfect. Scientist say if everyone had an ample supply on N95 masks and wore them when they should, we would eliminate the virus in about a mouth.

Thank you for agreeing that cloth masks, serve no purpose other than the Democrats old stand by, IT FEELS GOOD!

You could have used a lot fewer words!

I don't call people stupid on this board, but your comments are really stupid. First, that is not what I said. Second, masks do serve a very usefully purpose. I suppose you think healthcare workers have been wearing masks in airborne epidemics for over a hundred years because it makes them feel good.

Democrats, true to their heritage, demand to do something so they FEEL BETTER.

From day one, I could not imagine how a cloth mask would do diddly-squat for a virus. A virus, as most people other than Democrats know is a minuscule fraction of the size of bacteria.

Europe's Top Health Officials Say Masks Aren't Helpful in Beating COVID-19
The top medical experts in the world can’t decide if masks are helpful in reducing the spread of COVID-19 or just make things worse.
Thursday, August 6, 2020

Denmark boasts one of the lowest COVID-19 death rates in the world. As of August 4, the Danes have suffered 616 COVID-19 deaths, according to figures from Johns Hopkins University.

That’s less than one-third of the number of Danes who die from pneumonia or influenza in a given year.

Despite this success, Danish leaders recently found themselves on the defensive. The reason is that Danes aren’t wearing face masks, and local authorities for the most part aren’t even recommending them.

Public health officials in Denmark, Holland, and beyond say they have no intention of recommending face coverings, saying the science does not support it. “Face masks in public places are not necessary, based on all the current evidence,” said Coen Berends, spokesman for the National Institute...

CDC Study Finds Overwhelming Majority Of People Getting Coronavirus Wore Masks
OCTOBER 12, 2020 By Jordan Davidson

A Centers for Disease Control report released in September shows that masks and face coverings are not effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19, even for those people who consistently wear them.

A study conducted in the United States in July found that when they compared 154 “case-patients,” who tested positive for COVID-19, to a control group of 160 participants from health care facilities who were symptomatic but tested negative, over 70 percent of the case-patients were contaminated with the virus and fell ill despite “always” wearing a mask.

In truth, we wish masks worked. If they did, it would be a cheap, and easy way to control the spread of Covid. The idea that they protect not only their wearer, but also those people around them seems noble. We wished masks worked because citizens are spending billions of dollars on them.

We wish masks worked because most Americans wear them now. Telling them it was unnecessary will not make them happy. We wish masks worked because they have become a symbol for virtue and social responsibility. Anyone who doubts their utility is personally attacked; as though they don’t believe the viral pandemic is real, or don’t care about those who die from it.

Old misinformation!

The Danes are in complete lockdown! I guess that non mask wearing they claim in your article, didn't work!

Now all is completely shut down but grocers.... k-4TH grade will finally be reopened this week.

Would you agree that healthcare workers wear clean masks vs. most people who wear the same ones over and over again. I would guesstimate that only 20% wear clean masks all the time.

The thread isn’t a mask debate but it masks worked as advertised then we wouldn’t still be having all these infections worldwide

I'm not sure what you mean by "worked as advertised" but the CDC has made it quite clear that masks help prevent the spread of the the virus by blocking expelled droplets which is the primary means of transmission. Unless the mask is an N95, it provides little protection for the wearer. Most of the protection you get from masks come from others wearing masks. The goal of mask wearing is not to eradicate the virus but to lower the transmission rate and thus reducing the number of hospitalizations and deaths. Covering your mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing will help prevent other from catching your cold, but it will not eliminate the common cold.

How about that masks should be clean?

Wearing a masks is a sign of virtue-signaling by Democrats and a sign of conformity for the unwashed masses.

Where in the world, and how do you guys even come up with this kind of bizarre crap?

What's bizarre is that your far-left leaders have convinced you that a cloth mask will any effect, whatsoever, to stop a virus. Do you even know the difference between a virus and bacteria?

Difference between a virus and bacteria

As I have pointed out, a mask is not to stop the virus, but to slow the chances of spreading it, when coupled with 6ft of separation and constant hand washing or sanitizing.

And the funny gobbledygook about a mask is some secret plan for gvt to control us is just bat shit crazy! Imo

Masks doesn't stop transmission, that is what you ignore over and over.

According to who? You? And your sources?

It does help reduce transmission according to most experts
in the know,

and like hell would I take a chance and choose not to wear a mask if there was a chance that the mask captures some of the viral load coming out of my mouth and nose if I were infected, which could infect or kill one less person....

Wear a 3 ply mask, stop trying to kill more people with your whacky opinions just to cause political hay.

Little Miss "I never give sources" is asking for a source? Pound sand twit.

They’re here to stay so we’d better get used to them.

Sorry, but this shit is temporary and not the new way of life.
