Can You Get COVID Or Any Virus By Touching Your Face? Then Why Wear A Mask?

You are embarrassing yourself and dont even know it. We DID accomplish that. If you dont understand that you shouldnt be posting here.

200,000 dead

hello!
 
Then feel free to wear one. Just don't tell me too! It does not take brains to quote the CDC. It takes brains to know that something's not right and that this is a flu..

When the CDC tells you to put a bag over your head to stop the flu, with no idea of how long it will be there, please do it.
here is a novel idea...if you don't want to wear a mask stay your nasty butt home.

hello!
Not one of you liberals is capable of comprehending the written word. What is being discussed is avoiding the overwhelming of hospitals, which has been accomplished.
 
Then why will it spike in the winter?
because during the cold people stay home or inside...

My mother's church just opened up 2 weeks ago...we convinced her not to go back to church and I am glad we did....in the first week they had 8 positive cases from the same church and their member roll is like 42 members, if that many.

you are getting ahead of yourself...returning to the same old same old would cause another outbreak, thus once again putting our hospitals at risk.
 
When NY open back up, the virus will come right back. Even on lock down they have a thousand new cases per day. Luckily for them, though, they managed to kill off most of their vulnerable population through left wing incompetence, so their death rate may not rise so dramatically.

New York is open. And we have 600 new cases a day for a population of 19,000,000.
 
Funny, it was "Europe" a second ago. Here is per capita:

I doubt WP said "Europe was erupting" like you did, its not, and I'm willing to bet you wanted the same opening up here as the EU tried.
Try and be honest. Wait, never mind. Forgot who I was talking to, the poster with the most ironic name at DP. I was discussing the article and the three countries listed there who all have higher infection rates than the US. And I said that Europe is erupting and it is. Spain and France are in the worst shape with Belgium and the Netherlands right behind and the UK, Ireland, Austria and the Netherlands are seeing sharp increases as well.

Ive not advocated returning to 'the same old same old' whatever thats supposed to mean and our hospitals are not at risk

How about you stay home dig a hole, get in it, and live in fear because I am not.

Restaurants are open? Bars are open? Theaters are open? People working from home have returned to their offices?

Restaurants and bars are open though at lowered occupancies for inside dining and drinking. Theaters aren’t.

People who can work from home are.

Life is a lot closer to normal here than it was three months ago.

to this point.... just barely

because you are a very tough guy, lol

why not be a man of reason and wear a mask, distance and avoid gatherings, particularly indoors?

Oh, yeah, you are too tough for reason, you are a Trump fan.

"people inside", vague as usual. 60% were in Maricopa Co, which is Phx.

inside can be in your ac controlled home....limited spread.

inside can be at a bar/restaurant with ac....super spread.

Douchey was late to respond.

and as of Sept 12, ASU +UoA went from zero to 2500 cases.

It's my stalker!

I'm not sure who is angrier, you or the guy who is in every thread and still thinks I'm voting for Trump!

You don't accomplish that, you keep working at it until the threat is gone. You really need to learn about this. It's embarrassing for you. Please stop posting for your own protection until you understand how this works. Being from Ohio isn't in itself enough of an excuse. Close, but not enough.
 
The article basically points out that these countries imposed sever lock downs that did dramatically reduce the virus but the virus came roaring back as soon as these lock downs started being lifted. You cannot lock people in their homes indefinitely. Eventually they have to be allowed to come out. And when the do, the virus will be waiting. They now have higher rates of infection then we do and their populations are hardly ready for lock down #2. And the virus is erupting throughout Europe. Even that great socialist motherland known as France is on fire again.
The way to handle this virus is simple. Protect the at risk population and let everyone else go about their jobs and their lives taking the basic precautions.

Again, the problem will depend on how reopening phases are implemented and adhered to. Europe eased travel restrictions and Europeans went on holiday and weren't as precautious as they should have been. Israel reopened with little in the way of phased restrictions and the same thing happened; they are now imposing a second lockdown. Here in the northeast, the restrictions were gradually eased and we didn't have a surge during peak vacation season. If people are out there spreading the disease in large numbers, protecting the vulnerable becomes seriously compromised. The vulnerable also depends on the health of a country's population; in one like ours with high percentages of co-morbidities, that becomes more than just protecting the elderly.

Its beyond me how its become a political statement to refuse to wear a mask and ignore the science. The jackass of Pennsylvania Avenue has destroyed this country. I am not opposed to many of the platforms of the Republican party, but because they have selected a total jackass as their leader, they have lost their way. Its possible to hate the jackass, but not his party. Too many people forget that. In fact, my choice for president (John Kasich) is a republican who, unfortunately, didn't run.

Did the US actually do that?

or are you only parroting the latest version of the currently operative, officially sanctioned, "Team Trump" approved, White House issued, truth-of-the-day like every patriotic, right-thinking, patriotic, hard working, patriotic, honest, patriotic, real, patriotic, true, patriotic, conservative, patriotic, Christian, patriotic, White, patriotic, American, patriotic, patriot has been told to do?
 
There are only 195 countries on the planet. Lol liberal facts.
The UN recognises 251 countries and territories. Lol conservative facts.

Some people can't be counted on for anything, that's pretty clear. Just cross their arms and refuse to be inconvenienced. "I don't want to and you can't make me!"
The same people ignore the open burning ban during fire season and make campfires because that rule doesn't apply to anyone as smart as they are.
Anyone who refuses to follow the safety rules should be handcuffed for a few hours to the bedside of someone dying badly with a tube snaked down their windpipe and a machine pumping air into them.

None of your graphs even remotely address what I said, nor do any of your dopey comments. Try again.
 
The UN recognises 251 countries and territories. Lol conservative facts.

So according to that math, the US has done better with Covid than 51 countries. I can name one of those pathetic countries that have done a worse job than the US in handling the virus: Yours. Yet you still have the nerve to show up here and criticize the US for its handling of the virus. 😂
 
Did you just hit me with another "I know you are but what am I?" retort? Lol. Talk about lame. Youre the king of the sandbox 😀
Your comments never make much sense, other than most of them seem to be efforts to run away from earlier ones. But that one is just plain gibberish.
