I believe I already used this one today, but it's none the less appropriate for this situation as well.The ONLY conspiracy is among the mask cultSpewing crazy conspiracy theories is getting people killed.Wow, I hadn't realized you were an anti science nut.Sigh.Actually by talking about the "pores" in masks you have proven you are the one who knows nothing about how masks workSince mask culture is one of the hottest political topics, I post them in politics. Since no lefty has any idea how masks even work, or even how many hundreds of times larger the pores of masks are compared to the virus, mask culture is obviously faith based. This means you could post mask threads in the religion section. If lefties think that masks are somehow connected to health care policies and insurance, this could be where the threads wind up. If you see mask threads that are started by me in rubber rooms, flame rooms, and heath insurance sections, be aware that they were all originally posted where the hottest political topics belong, and that they can only move for political reasons.
Not really.
To allow airflow, there have to be openings, and pores are a reasonable term for them.
The fact they likely are spaces between cross hatched fibers, makes no difference.
Not what I meant. I've explained how masks capture particles far smaller than the openings between the fibers a dozen times here, and I'm tired of dealing with you denier types.
Skip the mask, do the world a favor and autodarwinate for the common good.
Yes we all know about how the water droplets in our breath are much larger than the virus spores they contain.
But we also know that water evaporates, causing those spores to be blown away when we exhale, after the they have dried out.
The ONLY advantage of a mask is to shorten the range of a cough or sneeze, which people can and should be covering when needed only.
But that is not the real people with "flattening the curve".
The real problem is that herd immunity saves lives by local burn out of hosts, so if we had LET the virus spike back in March, it likely would have burned out in March and have been done with, greatly reducing the death total, which would likely have gone on forever, due to our meddling.
Letting the virus peak deliberately at any time would and still might overwhelm our healthcare infrastructure.
Do you understand what that means?
Wrong.
Anyone who has used any science to study any epidemics at all knows that ONLY herd immunity ends or has ended any epidemic. Vaccines not only rely on herd immunity, but take too long.
There is NO use of the health care infrastructure at all if healthy young people use variolation to speed up the herd immunity, local host burn out, of the spike.
The difference in age factor changes the mortality rate by as much as 630%.

Do YOU understand that by reducing the initial spike by less than half, we have increased the duration and death total by a factor of 10 or more?
Stop.
