I have heard that BS story before. No proof of it.
try being a teacher before you decide what it takes.

The problem with being 'scientifically' accurate is that it was impossible in the beginning. There was very little known about this virus. They know much more now but the learning curve is still challenging since Covid-19 mutates. The newest mutation is 10 times more infectious, and much more devastating. The new Covid has 'S' shaped spikes that latch onto cells in the body.
This is what the newest COVID-19 looks like. As you can see, it has dramatically changed since the last images we've seen.
The novel coronavirus uses its spike protein (dark blue) to infiltrate host cells, whose machinery it uses to replicate its RNA (yellow).
You are correct a mask is not an end all protector but it better no mask.
I bolded your sentence about the mask being contaminated by the virus.
Do you realize that if you did not have the mask on your face would have been contaminated?
That would been direct contamination to your face instead of indirect and would be stronger / more powerful than touching a contaminated mask.
One thing people forget all about. When one removes the mask, they touch their face and carry it from the hands to the face.
A bachelor degree in education takes four years.
Strawman ^
Oh for fs, read this forum and tell me that some leftists and anti-Trumpers aren't calling mask deniers killers, murderers on various threads throughout the forum. Hell, I've even read where they have claimed that Trump is complicit with getting people killed by the virus.
Look it up. I'm not your go-for.
A master's degree will earn a credentialed teacher who earned a four year degree more money but a four year credentialed degree will earn a beginning teacher entry level pay for their district.
We should have been like Sweden The death toll would be about 225,000. Well worth it Leftists wouldn't have that.
Sweden will have immunity and we still don't. They won't have NEW cases You watch. Why? Because they did it right while America lived in fear because the MSM kept you guys in abject fear of dying.
I listen to "science" AFTER I confirm they are correct.
Still waiting for New York to be under water like some scientists predicted.
Trump has not demonized science ever.
Trump is not in charge of mandating mask wearing in OK or any other state. That doesn't mean he doesn't encourage mask wearing because he has...
Many people have not been educated properly on how to safely use a mask. People are reusing surgical masks not knowing that the virus can stick on it for several days. Many people aren't aware that you can't clean these masks. Many people just lack awareness in general. This is true in other safety areas. I see people wearing gloves all day long or taking off the gloves and putting them in their pocket. People touch things without even realizing it all day long. There are tons of C19 safety mistakes being made every day by thousands, maybe millions of people. This is a huge reason why we still see big numbers.
Based on the information I have now, wearing a mask helps to reduce the spread of virus. Just because people aren't doing it correctly doesn't mean we shouldn't push mask wearing. We need to do a better job of teaching people the fundamentals of using any protection gear. I have to go to a sexual harassment training every year(all workers, not just me BTW). I would think businesses would have Covid safety training. Also, people need to be taught awareness. The amount of people walking around in a daze is scary.
not if you wash your hands before taking off the mask - or use a disinfecting wipe
He has in the sense that he cherry-picks science that he wants to hear
A literacy rate of 99%.
Before that "socialism" was around, what do you think capitalism left our literacy rate at?
Based on what I have witnessed on the TV many people are definitely not educated properly on how to safely use a mask.
I have no problem with pushing mask use... I’d like to see more pushing about how to use those masks safely every time the masks are being pushed.
Hubby and I have a large collection of masks. We are properly educated on mask and glove safety use. We have and use full strength alcohol bottles of hand sanitizer. We also wash hands properly. We do not touch our faces until hands are properly sanitized.

If we are going to force everyone to wear a mask then let's open up the businesses and schools and social events and lets get back to normal, except for having a mask on. Doesn't seem we should be ruining the economy and ruining peoples lives for a small chance of someone contracting and dying from the Covid 19. I'm not trying to be cruel but we just don't react like that to other diseases. That is pretty much the political side to this. I don't believe if we had a democrat in office right now the reaction by the left and by the press would be at all the same.
capitalists prefer the average American to be uneducated - easier to use for cheap labor
Why do you persistently ask silly questions? He did not claim he is a teacher nor did he allege he is in college.
sorry, actions speak louder than words - he gutted the mask precaution attempt
but why not? He obviously thinks it's a great gig so why doesn't he get in on it?
kind of like closing the barn door after the horse gets out, no?
Good for you. I never did well in algebra. Now what?
PS. How has solving that equation helped you in your understanding of humanity and in life? I can add, subtract, multiply in my head better than most can do on paper. For that matter, my entire career has been using math and numbers and never once did I need algebra.
Good try at demeaning though and a fail. I am on to the left wing tactics of ridicule and denigration. Try someone else. I find most left wingers to be evil and despicable POS.
