Masks arent about protecting ourselves as much as protecting others.

I have no problem putting one on or covering up as I get close to someone else, especially an older person.

In 1917 they stayed home, covered up and distanced until they found a cure.

In 2020 some are now programmed to think measures and a vaccine are worse than the virus, or worse: believe its fake.

No way my words even reach the white matter of those who think Covid doesn't exist. Unfortunate.

We can slow this down in its tracks if we distance, and wear masks but everyone has to try. And....it probably won't happen...and we will probably be stuck in this situation for longer than we need to be.

Personally, I only wear one when I know I will be in proximity to others who arent in my household.

Ill get called a Karen and all kinds of crap on a site like this. Whatever. Wont be the last time...certainly not the first since coming here since y2k lol

I have formal education and a degree, plus decades worth of experience working in science and medicine. I side with the institutional medical advice on this particular issue, which I know is very hard for many of you, too (me too, sometimes)

I think the real conspiracy isnt about control via masks/vaccines but involve foreign agents dividing us by removing stability and creating issues that get us fighting over issues like masks and defunding our police.

We need to start working together to save our country, and our world. God bless.
