thats not the argument they are making at all. They're trying to say masks don't do anything. It's even in the OP.

I have pointed out masks don't really do anything the Kung Flu is aerosol transmission not droplet


No one ever said masks are a panacea that will stop transmission. The aim of masks is to REDUCE transmission.

Saw on news tonight it’s recommended to wear masks … in public, transport etc because the flu is on the rise.
Well… I don’t mind wearing a mask in public…. It may offer a little protection and wether or not I still have antibodies from my covid episode in January… I will still seek to make use of all those pretty masks I bought.

Hopefully I won’t catch the flu …. Strange things is… I would always catch it every year! Like an old friend coming to visit me  Roll Eyes
Yet… 2020 and 2021 no flu at all.
Of course lockdowns, masks, sanitizers, social distancing etc may have helped.
It will be interesting to see this year … winter months barely started … yet today felt very icy outside!
In the car I have a tube of hand sanitizer and spare masks in glove box.
Has become “must haves” when travelling.


Masks don’t work against viruses 🦠 - PERIOD… the virus would be approx 100 times smaller than the smallest hole in your mask ...


Lol   Grin

The virus hitches a ride in bodily fluids, and the masks do a very good job of stopping those liquid droplets.



They might do a good job but it's not 100% ...is the argument.


Correct.

Not 100% effective at all.

Neither are seatbelts - hundreds of people around the world die in automobile accidents every day, even though they were wearing seatbelts.

I still put mine on every time I get into a vehicle though.


I think the underlying issue here is this : From the get go there should have been a clear up front admission that masks are not THE ANSWER....but they are a step in the right direction in trying to contain this virus.

In any event that has always been our understanding here.

The CDC is not the media, dear.

COVID-19 is spread in three main ways:

1. Breathing in air when close to an infected person who is exhaling small droplets and particles that contain the virus.

2. Having these small droplets and particles that contain virus land on the eyes, nose, or mouth, especially through splashes and sprays like a cough or sneeze.

3. Touching eyes, nose, or mouth with hands that have the virus on them.

Thats what the experts have ALWAYS said.

It's only the anti maskers who were pretending anyone said they would 100% stop the virus so that they could argue that it wouldn't.

That's exactly what they did.

They've never claimed that masks are "the answer".

It's always been a combination of vaccinations, masks, personal hygiene, and social distancing.

The WHO is not the media:

Current evidence suggests that the virus spreads mainly between people who are in close contact with each other, for example at a conversational distance. The virus can spread from an infected person’s mouth or nose in small liquid particles when they cough, sneeze, speak, sing or breathe. Another person can then contract the virus when infectious particles that pass through the air are inhaled at short range (this is often called short-range aerosol or short-range airborne transmission) or if infectious particles come into direct contact with the eyes, nose, or mouth (droplet transmission).

The Australian Government Department of Health is not the media:

COVID-19 is a new disease, so there is limited natural immunity in our community. This means that COVID-19 can spread quickly.

The virus is usually spread from person to person by:

- close contact with an infectious person

- contact with droplets from an infected person’s cough or sneeze

- touching objects or surfaces that have droplets from an infected person, and then touching your mouth or face.

Masks are for lowering the spread of the virus to other people. The infected person contains the virus to themselves. It also offers a little more protection from catching the virus from other people. And when most people use masks, the rate of transmission is lowered considerably.

Masks don’t work against viruses 🦠 - PERIOD… the virus would be approx 100 times smaller than the smallest hole in your mask let alone gaps all around the edges..

As DeSantis in Florida said - Masks are only for Thearter…

So, without the masks, TV and wireless - would you even know that there was a “so called” pandemic? …. I wouldn’t ..

And i would also not be using hand chemicals - this obsession about sterilising everything with poisons has to stop as…

Most of our sicknesses have come from our households full of chemicals that we wipe on everything …

This is my advice only.. you do not have to take it…

Btw lols - did you know that in 1918 Bacterial Pneumonia Caused Most Deaths in 1918 Influenza Pandemic???

The pneumonia was caused when bacteria that normally inhabit the nose and throat invaded the lungs…

So how did this bacteria 🦠 get into the lungs???

Back in 1918 they did the “exact” same thing they are doing now - they forced everyone to wear masks which catch the bacteria and then you rebreathe it…

Masks are nothing but filthy disgusting disease carrying pieces of cloth…

They killed 10 of thousands back in 1918/19 and then 100 years later they are killing people now.. in fact… they say over 50 Million people died back then 

Its the same “Plan”


That's interesting about the bacteria and bacterial pneumonia....
I wear a clean mask every time for a very short time (about 3/4 hour at most in supermarkets, but only if overcrowded....otherwise, I'm happy to keep distant) I also wore it to avoid a fine. People were taking phone videos of those not wearing it and dobbing people in.
I once forgot at a service station....and there was a creepy guy taking a phone vid of me.....I found out, the service station is private property, so that video was not legal.

Anyway, I don't like to be told or lawfully told to wear a mask, I do so if I wish to, depending on the situation.
I feel for the medical staff wearing it for hours during operations, as I can't stand wearing it for too long.

The one thing I know for certain that stopped transmission....was keeping away from public places and people....and not having visitors.
That worked...for 2 years of our lock downs in Victoria.

Now, my situation, about a month ago, I got diagnosed with Lupus, something that should've been diagnosed decades ago  Undecided

It's any wonder I was so damned susceptible to any flu going around!
And sometimes twice in the one year!
People would say....not the flu again Lols!
I started to wonder what the heck was wrong with me....I took enough vitamins and minerals to sink a ship....I don't drink or smoke and don't mind spending on supplements....maybe that's a lucky thing....it probably helped me a little bit somehow, and I have been on rain water all my life...no chemicals or fluoride.

So no surprise when I got Covid in January this year since I still didn't know about that lurking evil Lupus.
And still have long covid….smell/tase affected, loss of hair, and a little bit of dizziness.

This wonderful specialist (took 3 months to see him) ordered the nuclear injection and scan and blood tests, and I've been prescribed...
hydroxychloroquine and prednisolone, as I have never liked prescription drugs, and avoided it (I am now 68) , I think this time in my life, I will try them, and it's already making a difference.
I feel calmer within my body, less pain (from inflammation) and changing diet too (less inflammatory foods and carbs)
And the good thing about plaquenil is that it's the controversial one re: covid...so maybe in the next few months, I will get most of my smell/taste back and my hair!

Time will tell. So that, is why I think I should feel a little better with a mask on, when I feel the need to depending where I am, and I want to do any mask wearing on my own free terms..I have to do what it takes to protect myself now....so far, no bronchial pneumonia and if I do get that....I take colloidal silver....it's helped in the past...au naturally.  Smiley

Post of the day lols ! ….  Smiley

Yes i found the bacterial pneumonia Interesting myself which you can find on the NIH website - one of the biggest Health institutions in the world… if not the biggest..

At work, we called the mask the “Fine Stopper” … you only wore one so you didnt get a fine… so wore it under my nose so i could breath FRESH AIR..

So one question is - what are your lungs for?
You breath in fresh air and breath out dirty air.. wearing a mask, you rebreath your contaminated air.. this is not Rocket Surgery ..

At the start of the pandemic Dr Fauci, Virologists, all the CHOs, Dan Andrews etc said that masks don’t work against viruses… they were right..

Then they all backflipped .. why?

They are flatout liars and criminals ..

Wearing a mask for a virus is like running water through a strainer … it goes straight through ..

BTW…

If folks want to wear a mask then they can..

If folks don’t want to then thats ok too…

If we have governments and one part of society trying to tell others what they can and can’t do then thats communism/ Nazism …

This is why history is important- so we don’t keep repeating it..

But whats exactly what we keep doing …

Re.. Creeps dobbing in others…

During WWII the German Nazi’s had “BROWN SHIRTS” … Civilian scum of society who dobbed on others… look it up.. “Brown Shirts Germany”

A bit like George Soros - he dobbed on his fellow Jews and got them incarcerated…

Re getting flu lols…

I think everyone is different in that regards - i get it every once in 4 to 5 years …

But the one thing I’ve learnt is that you can minimise the worst effects it has..

Take Vit C (im sure you already do)
Vit D - everyone seems to be low on Vit D these days

But the most important Vitamin for colds and flu is ZINC………

The second most important medication is the delivery system for the zinc to your cells…

Ivermectin
Hydroxychloroquine
Or
Quercetin

One of those 3 taken with Zinc will massively help you with Flu and auto immune system

One more thing lols…

I’ve been hearing recently about Super Charged Vitamin Therapy by using IV Drip …

Why IVD?

So it bypasses your stomach system which can filter out all of the vitamins- (yellow pee)

I’ve heard about folks that have had this done have felt a massive boost or wellness and energy…

Not sure if this is your cup of tea of not but its becoming very popular..
