The golden rule was deemed less important that abortion and deep-nanny-state-socialism I guess.

If someone is infected with a virus, I'd much rather they act like a courteous human being and stop as many air droplets to slow their spread which science shows masks can do. Yet here in the "Christian" nation of the USA, it seems puzzlingly hard to convince people to be that type of person.
It may be all he's capable of.All you ever seen capable of doing is insinuating everyone else but you is dumb.
That is pathetic argument tactic.
Facts are what they are you call people names for not agreeing with you.You think whatever you want mate.
That's the assumption.It may be all he's capable of.
He is indeed capable of being correct in his perceptions.It may be all he's capable of.
Ah, no. Attempting to assert that everyone is at equal risk from COVID (as you imply with your edits above) is nonsense. The risks are not equal, and they never have been.I would modify it to be more accurate
Arguing the other side of then coin for a moment, one could see this study as demonstrating the limits ofheavy-handedpublic policy. What these results may show is that with or withoutthe nanny statepublic regulations, thoseatwho perceive risk will do what they need to do to protect themselves (like wear a mask, even if there's no mandate to do so) and others whoare at lessignore risk will take the opportunity to exercise a small measure of civil disobedience with little legal risk.
But the core of your statement is correct, compliance levels were low and there was inadequate cultural support in this country to do what needed to be done in order to save lives.
You had too much spin to be "arguing on the other side"
Well at least I don't post dumb threads which say the opposite of what the poster thinks they say.It may be all he's capable of.
I suppose you're right, it's just that we haven't seen it, so your assertion remains theoretical.He is indeed capable of being correct in his perceptions.
I haven't called anyone names, especially you. Of course you're free to point out where you imagine I insulted you.Facts are what they are you call people names for not agreeing with you.
That's pretty fragile
I wasn't.What if you were asymptomatic?
Don't sell yourself short.Well at least I don't post dumb threads which say the opposite of what the poster thinks they say.
not directly no you know better than that.I haven't called anyone names, especially you.
you didn't insult me. You just don't have a point except for you think you're the smartest person alive apparently.Of course you're free to point out where you imagine I insulted you.
So don't make up crap. Simple.not directly no you know better than that.
you didn't insult me. You just don't have a point except for you think you're the smartest person alive apparently.
I don't think you would be capable of that. You can't present anything. All you do is insinuate everyone else's dumber than you.Well at least I don't post dumb threads which say the opposite of what the poster thinks they say.
Yeah you just follow those that do. That's even worse.So don't make up crap. Simple.
You mean when the surgeons are coming straight from their very own barroom brawl?~..............................When surgeons wear a mask it's to prevent debris from their mouth getting on the patient it's not to stop viruses it doesn't do that.
No when you speak or you sneeze. Mucus and saliva comes out of your mouth and nose.You mean when the surgeons are coming straight from their very own barroom brawl?
I have been saying this for over a year. Plenty of examples here at DP
Mask don’t work

Study Finds Face Masks Didn’t Slow Spread Of Covid-19
The first ecological study of state mask mandates and their use to include data from the winter case spike has found that widespread mask-wearing likely didn’t slow the spread of COVID-19.
The study, conducted by the University of Louisville using data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, found that “80% of US states mandated masks during the COVID-19 pandemic,” but while “mandates induced greater mask compliance, [they] did not predict lower growth rates when community spread was low (minima) or high (maxima).” The study also found that “mask mandates and use are not associated with lower SARS-CoV-2 spread among US states.”

What lives in mucus and saliva?No when you speak or you sneeze. Mucus and saliva comes out of your mouth and nose.

I wasn't.
Yeah and if that's how covid was transmitted you'd have a point. It's largely transmitted by exhaled micro droplets that pass right through that scrap of dirty tee shirt you smear all over your face.What lives in mucus and saliva?
Oh yeah, bacteria and viruses.
You wouldn't call such substance debris? Flotsam perhaps?debris
