America's snowflake virus-phobe masktards are hogging all the

protective gear and now America's healthcare workers can't get
them.

Liar, it doesn't say that at all.

Forget that google search result bull****, I'm willing to bet none
of
them say that "masktards" are causing the deficit.

That is true. The medical establishment has said we should not
actually be using the effective PPE they use. Just wrap a rag around
your face and pretend you have a mask.
I still see people with N-95s but about half of them have the checker
(check valve) and are doing absolutely nothing to stop exhaled
contamination. These things are usually months old, physically dirty,
contaminated with all sorts of stuff and I wouldn't touch them
wearing
nitrile gloves. Unfortunately those masktards are fondling them all
day and then touching everything around them.

Yes, how great Trump has made America. The country that put man on
the moon
has had over 4 months now to ramp up mask production. By now the
right masks
should be available to all Americans for free. Trump, always behind
the
curve. Actually that's being far too kind. He;s on his own curve.
Instead
of taking the necessary steps to combat Covid and save lives, Trump is
helping spread it. Rallies in Tulsa, Mt. Rushmore, no masks, no
social
distancing. Now it's on to NH, a state that has a low infection
rate,
Trump's going to help drive that rate up with a rally there.

Yes, we 'were' one of the few states with a downward trend, maybe we
still are, but for how long. Have you seen the venue or heard about it?
Most people are supposed to be outside the hangar in the open and masks
made available and the weraing of them strongly suggested.


Well that's a step in the right direction.



Will this be enough? I hope so, because I live here and must avoid sick
people, doctor's orders.


It all depends on what the people showing up do. In Tulsa the place was
two thirds empty but the dummies still all clustered together. I know
for me, no political rally to see a president speak is worth the risk.
And with America struggling to get businesses open, schools open, every
unnecessary event like this can only add to the more Covid, as I see it.


I have managed to live a long and fruitful life without ever attending
a political rally, demonstration or convention.
OTOH it is not much different than going to a movie, a sports event or
a make out bar. It is just more politically charged.


We still haven't seen anyone talking about
the bloom of cases from the BLM riots.


Maybe there is something about being outside


Very likely given what we know about what
has happened with that choir practice and
in prisons and nursing homes.

or maybe tear gas and the smoke from
burning buildings does kill the corona.


No evidence of that at all.
