Massive dust cloud reaches South Florida
Outbursts of Canadian wildfire smoke have filled the sky over the eastern United States in recent weeks, but a new airborne danger from a different source has reached another part of the country. This past week, AccuWeather meteorologists were tracking several large clouds of dust from Africa's...www.yahoo.com
Seems to be aimed at the Gulf Coast and Eastern Seaboard for now.
Meh, fire will cleanse it.Have you ever seen what its like to have Ebola?
I just wanted everyone to know the sorts of things you find entertaining.
WARNING: IMAGES BELOW ARE DISTURBING
Shit, is could be Diane Frankenstien's coffin opening up on a daily basis. All that gas coming out from over night.Actually the dust cloud started in DC, from the White House.
Scientists thought it was snow at first but then realized it was far too warm for that.
Did you know, that the brown turd Obammy was the first President ever to allow Ebola into the United States, under the supervision of one Tony Fauxci?Have you ever seen what its like to have Ebola?

.But a cloth mask can stop dust particles which are larger than virus, You will have to clean the masks if they get too caked up with dust.
Lets invade Canada and then we can all piss on the fires to put them out.....It's time to declare a state of emergency and immediately close down small businesses, prevent people from going to church and to set up an elaborate network to silence anybody who tells the truth about the dust.
Do you actually believe that surgical masks do nothing? Does that mean you'd willingly undergo surgery under non-sterile conditions?
Non sequitur.Do you actually believe that surgical masks do nothing? Does that mean you'd willingly undergo surgery under non-sterile conditions?
WrongNon sequitur.
So they stop the spread of infection. That is not doing "nothing", is it1) Surgical masks are used to keep the attendees from infecting the patient via the open wound.
Wrong. Isolation rooms are kept at negative pressures but operating rooms are kept at positive pressures. No one is going enter an isolation room in a cheap knock-off mask. See COVID-19 and Hospital and Facility Administration.2) The environment in which they are used is closed and under negative pressurization (try that in your local grocery store).
For a doctor in an OR, sure.3) They have an effective life span of 1/2 hour +/-.
Do you think people are wearing such masks into ORs?4) The admonition on the off-the shelf face diapers....
You haven't answered the first one. Would you be willing to have surgery under non-sterile conditions?Any other silly questions?
Right....Comparing a closed system with everyday life is a total non sequitur.Wrong

Yet all the hoi polloy wore were cheap knock-off masks...Do you ever even give a moment's thought before hitting that "Post reply" button?Wrong.

Is a fucking grocery store an OR?For a doctor in an OR, sure.
Fucking idiot.Do you think people are wearing such masks into ORs?
You haven't answered the first one. Would you be willing to have surgery under non-sterile conditions?
ORs are not closed systems and whether or not the environment was controlled has no effect whatsoever on what the mask does and does not do.Right....Comparing a closed system with everyday life is a total non sequitur.
Cloth masks were popular at first and were very ineffective. Then they moved to surgical masks which would provide 20% protection for a 5 minute, 6 foot exposure if both parties wore them. Then they moved to N-95s and KN-95s. Now, with the widespread vaccination of the population, mask use has declined significantly. I don't wear a mask unless I expect population density to exceed roughly 1 person/100 sq ft. Then I use a KN-95. Here is a graphic from a study comparing N-95s to cloth masks augmented with HEPA filters.IN A CLOSED ENVIRONMENT.

I'm still wondering why you won't answer my question? If you think surgical masks do nothing, why would you care whether or not your surgeon was wearing one? It could be argued that it might detract from his concentration and technique. Mightn't you prefer he go without?Do you ever even give a moment's thought before hitting that "Post reply" button?

Fucking idiot.
Always with the silly-assed charts and graphs that prove nothing.ORs are not closed systems and whether or not the environment was controlled has no effect whatsoever on what the mask does and does not do.

Obviously, these masks are reducing exposure.

I'm the head of a family all of whom have had every vaccination and booster available and who have all worn masks when needed and who have all completely avoided COVID infection.Always with the silly-assed charts and graphs that prove nothing.
Real surgical masks weren't readily available to the general population and might have been marginally effective, if used properly and changed every 15 minutes or so...Neither of which was the norm for any of the ninnies walking around in useless off-the-shelf face diapers.
FACT: Face diapers in the general population are inefective for anything other than virtue signalling or announcing to the world that you believe everything you're told, without a single analytical thought in your head.
Oh, and you're still a fucking idiot.
Have you had a chance to try them on wildfire smoke? I'm in northern Wisconsin and we got a few days where the haze from the Canada fires was visible within a single suburban block and the smell of wood smoke was strong. If you put on an N-95 mask you couldn't smell it anymore.I got some o' dem dere pull-over-the-head stretchy "masks" that are basically like a stretchier bandanna.
I use 'um for mowing/weedeating. They filter dust OK.
Science has never told you any of those things.
