So you're saying stupidity and ignorance are good things to be considered qualities not handicaps? You're truly a graduate of the public school system and that in and of itself is one of our greatest problems today. You're no longer taught to think but to conform. An Orwellian prophecy and nightmare come true.I've said it about a hundred times on this board already. Don't want to believe me? Fine get off of your dead ass and do your own research. The information isn't hard to find or even to understand for anyone with a reasonable degree of intelligence.Masks do no damn good except if you are down with the virus and are coughing and sneezing in which case it limits the range of aerosol spray but it does not contain nor will they filter out airborne virus cells. The virus cells are too small and pass right through any mask that can pass air. If it could block the virus, you'd likely suffocate.Over a requirement to where a mask.
These almost certainly conservitard hicks are threading to harm the people in the stores because their almost certainly conservitard city government declared they must wear masks in public.
Cries of "unconstitutional" were heard. It's not, BTW. Unless you think the "no shoes, no shirt, no service" policy is as well.
From the mayor of Stillwater OK:
"In the short time beginning on May 1, 2020, that face coverings have been required for entry into stores/restaurants, store employees have been threatened with physical violence and showered with verbal abuse. In addition, there has been one threat of violence using a firearm. This has occurred in three short hours and in the face of clear medical evidence that face coverings helps contain the spread of COVID-19."
My opinion?
Dumb-ass, selfish, redneck tRumplings with no common sense, no education, and the self preservation instincts of depressed lemmings.
Good to know. You should start contacting every hospital in the country with this information. I'm sure they will be glad they no longer have to worry about finding enough masks.
What you'll find is that spherical virus cells measure from about 30 - 200 nm in diameter. That's too small to see with an optical microscope and that size is equal to the wavelength of ultraviolet light. Even N95 makes are made to only filter out 95% of the particles down to roughly 0.3uM that's micrometers microns X10 to the negative 6th or an order of magnitude (X1000) larger than nM or nanometers, X10 to the negative 9th.
Of course if you're an idiot incapable of independent thought, you'll just have to sit there and drool as someone else tells you what to think and say. Maybe wear a bib to keep the drool off of your clothes.
Talking about the size of the virus, of course you are correct.
But what you are failing to take into consideration is that there are other things other that the coronavirus involved.
The Corona Panic is also psychological, and a lot more powerful that even the nastiest virus. When people who have listened to and absorbed the Hysteria going around see someone without a mask within 6 feet, the fear of death by COVID takes over and they suffer very real symptoms. They can easily end up in the ER waiting for the results of the Q Tip upside their nose, worried to death about being put into a ventilator to await their return to room temperature.
As a matter of public health, and concern for your fellow man, there is a lot to say for even useless masks.
