No Mask, No Entry, No Exceptions

By the way, even if it just reminds people to keep a more sensible distance, what’s the harm with a mask?

Ah yes, The Science™. Once again it shows itself to be utterly hopeless when confronted with the real world.

The good people of China are some of the most enthusiastic mask wearing folk out there. Yet they're also currently one of the biggest sufferers of covid - so much so that some countries are imposing sanctions on travellers from China, including the UK.

Science eh? It sure is fun to do stuff in the lab.

why not stop trying to tell other what to do.

If you have been jabbed which is your free choice then you are protected are you not?

Virus is going to spread no matter what - has this not been clear from the last 2 years?

Can you hear that whoosh?

nope? was it?

Maybe a bit vague, but my original post was intended to convey the hypocrisy of not wanting to do something myself but being keen to inflict it on others.

An explosion of covid cases in China - think how much worse it would be if there was no mask wearing.

Still don't understand how anyone can actually believe wearing a mask has any effect on the spread of covid, under no circumstances will I ever wear one in the future.

Can I ask where you get the evidence for your decision and/or opinion?

One alternative to your view is https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-cor...

I just skimmed through that. That is the WHO saying you should wear a mask to help stop the spread of covid. No great suprise there.

What It doesn't do is show why, with proven stats, per each different type of mask, WITH covid used for testing, or similar sized particles.

So yes, it IS an alternative view. But it's just that.

What people like me have been banging our heads against the wall about for years now, is, clearly, proper medical sealed type masks DO work, but flimsy paper masks and "fashion" fabric masks, don't make a jot of difference with regards to containing covid. If you are worried, wear a proper, medical N95 type mask and leave the rest of us alone. It is not our job to comfort you.

Two of your statements that seem to contradict them selves:

"Still don't understand how anyone can actually believe wearing a mask has any effect on the spread of covid,"

"clearly, proper medical sealed type masks DO work"

And you provide no proof for any of your statements.......

An N95 sealed mask, which is fitted and swapped regularly, does help. This is proven in data.

Cloth / "medical" masks do not. This is also proven in Data.

So the statements are correct , just with the omissision of specifically saying what a "proper medical sealed type mask" is (N95 being the only type that does help)

Indeed, thought that was clear but I obviously wasn't .
