https://files.fast.ai/papers/masks_lit_review.pdf I think the biggest difference between a mask and the seat-belt argument is that the primary purpose of the mask is to protect others. I get that people don't like to be told what to do, but it seems like such a minor inconvenience to take to ensure the safety of those around you. | ||

I agree that the seatbelts doesn't affect others. Some view wearing masks like smoking. There are smoking and smoke free zones. | ||

Police told us early on they will not enforce mask wearing. It is not against the law. It's only a mandate. If a company requires to wear a mask, people wear it. Public and private areas, people often don't wear them. The hilarious part is most people don't get COVID. The people here are give me liberty or give me death type of people. The libertarian movement is strong here on both parties. I forget about COVID often. People will still quarantine if they have symptoms or know they were around someone with COVID. But wearing a mostly useless mask, good luck getting them to wear one. Some people here are still upset that the government requires people to wear seatbelts in vehicles, which drove the prices of vehicles up. I'm not libertarian, but I have to stay I respect their stance and can't say they are logically wrong. One thing for sure, these people will give up their bullets before they give up their guns. Where I am also libertarian I did not know these places exist My wife must know freedom. She is too attached to LA by fear. She needs to be free from fear. Some... strange rants I released, shrouded in the mists of the past... come from the onerous overlording in my state. I don’t care about democrat. I don’t care about republican. I care about let me work! Let me produce! Let me fix! Let me live! I hate the people who view the common man as lesser and act like this: Also, a recent study has been done on the efficacy of the N95 mask. They work. Staying home does not. I’m living in the case study. Fucking hell. We fought it off (my family) because despite my wife thinking we are frail (we’re all thin and physically weak) that we aren’t tough as nails. Spoiler: we’re pretty fucking tough. Lungs still work fine. I’m back at it with Uber. N95 all day every time. Never sick after January. Anyway. Yeah I am more referring to the freedom. That place that lets you not wear a mask in public without a $1000 fine might let me be poor without a $1000 fine This shit knocks you out though, I get why people are scared. I couldn’t breathe and just lay down in the back hall (I was at school when the first major attack came on, another teacher covered with my students) and I was like “holy hell I might have to take tomorrow off” took tomorrow off was back at it following day- no coughing ever except during the attack. (I’m Scandinavian by descent) Wife was knocked out for a week though. Not unconscious I hope you know what I mean. | ||

I wear an N95 every time I uber. What I dispute is EVERYTHING IS CLOSED | ||

I was only in El Segundo for 6 months before I decide I hate most people more than the place. (Ps. Little one doing good?) Glad to hear BH! I'm doing good! Travel was hard but I mess up a few things in the paperwork. So it was a easy problem, that I made 3 months of headache's for °~°.. [Edit] (We might take this to the community thread though). She is! Yeah. Political extremism here is pretty bad, it's breeding another extremist in me though so I need to back off on the hypocrisy. | ||
