Ever since the mainstream media declared Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election, he’s been prattling on about how a nationwide mask mandate is vital to slowing the spread of the coronavirus. But has anyone noticed that the disease is spreading like wildfire in states that already have mask mandates?
The day after he made up his “President Elect” signs, Biden declared that he would call on governors around the country to impose mask mandates. One Biden official told NBC News that “If a governor declines, he’ll go to the mayors in the state and ask them to lead.

I've been wearing that d*mned mask since August. Guess what? We still have the Covid and cases are rising, but guess what? The death rate is not going up. Cases are milder and people who have it are recovering quickly. I am so heartily sick of the mask and the fearmongering that our governor is spreading that I could just scream. He's been having daily briefings where he gives us all scoldings. I wish he'd just shut up already. I think of Covid as a very, very contagious mild flu and that's it.

Masks don't work for viruses. Note that masks can be made out of any old thing as long as it looks like a mask. It is like trying to stop mosquitoes with a chain link fence. Masks are to keep the subjects subjugated. All the plastic shields don't do anything either. We live in dangerous times and the danger is not the CCP flu.

Bottom line - if masks worked, the virus would have died out months ago.

Well after this election, we all know how much we can trust statistics coming out of blue states.

Masks don't work in Operating Rooms either... all they do is restrict your blood oxygen content and put people with respiratory problems further at risk for heart attacks, etc. Even Doctors don't recommend wearing them for extended periods of time for that reason. This is a political hijacking of our medical industry... oh, just like Obamacare!

The problem is leftists have a notion that they have the right to dictate rules to every person in this nation. They haven't grown out if their 4th grade infancy of "my daddy can beat your daddy." God help this country.

I was close to fainting in Walmart yesterday, because I was not getting enough oxygen through the mask, and was getting a headache. Walmart changed the checkout, so there were no checkout clerks. Only people standing around telling customers what to do. Everyone was being pushed to go through self checkout. I told them I was not able to check out, so they got me someone to check me out in the self check out area. Walmart does not need a mask mandate, they need to put some chairs in the place so old people can take a rest. Walmart has made the stores a mile across. If you want groceries, on one side. If you want a bar of soap, it is a mile on the other side of the store. By the way, the last time Walmart put any oil on their shopping carts is never.

Doesn't matter, now. The article is entirely correct (masks don't do a darn thing), of course. However, with the considerable help of the MSM and Big Tech, and Fauci and friends within Trump's admin, Biden was able to pin CV19 on Trump. Biden was able to stoke fear of its effects into the public to the degree that for anyone watching the MSM/Alphabet channels, the solution was "vote Biden, or die."
Election fraud notwithstanding, Trump surrendered far too many votes to Biden on this single issue, which was the main issue for many voters.
The point of the article, that masks don't work, was well-documented before the election, and Trump could've hung Joe with it...did Trump's campaign just misread how critical this issue was to the gullible public?

It's not the mask-wearing, careful people that contribute to the spread in any given area, it's the 5 to 10 percent of the population who party and attend functions where they are in close contact with others for hours at a time. That's why sports teams are hit hard. But so what? It's still a free country and people have been getting sick from similar viruses for centuries. Let the darn thing run its course and go on with your life.

Logic cannot overcome panic and fear. Joe doesn't care. The majority of people want government to "do something"...and this nonsense is a public display of government in action, saving grandma and the baby from the COVIDS.

Masks are a cruel joke. They DO NOT significantly reduce transmisison, clearly.
This entire Dem-Panic has been a political hit job on President Trump from the beginning. Fauci should be in prison.

I remember that Huckleberry Finn's grandma made him wear a small, stinky bag around his neck, to ward off colds and other things, so I googled and found it.
It was called asafetida, and had a putrid smell.
Perhaps we all should be wearing one of those. It would help with the social distancing requirement.
and there is no evidence that it worked, but isn't that the same with masks?

Masks,.. a strong visual for fear and panic. The dems love them, they're a reminder that the plague is out there ,......somewhere. And , it's going to get you unless you wear a mask.Masks take away our humanity, they conceal our smiles.

Masks are as effective as using chain-link fence as mosquito netting.

Masks invite self-contamination. Nose and mouth are the avenues for the virus to enter the body. Dirty hands on masks make dirty masks. Few people follow common sense methods for safe wearing of masks.
Sats show people have no idea how they contracted COVID.
"Don't touch your face" will keep you the safest.

Masks are BS. The two thing that I do which I am certain make a REAL difference in lowering my chances of getting this virus are:
1) I do stand back a touch from people
2) I do avoid handshakes, for the time being.
3) MOST important, in my opinion, I carry around a pocket spray bottle of isopropyl alcohol and spray my hands down after I leave any store or restaurant.
4) take extra Vitamin C and Vitamin D to help my immune system.
