    Mask wearing is about compliance to government, not public safety.

If someone has the flu , and they cough in your direction or close proximity , you get the flu . If you wear a mask , more than likely , it will prevent you from getting the flu . In the current circumstances , there is a flu virus that is highly contagious , and can spread rapidly.........best option= just wear the fcking mask , and stop searching for idiotic reasons to not wear it.........this is a classic no-brainer .

    Masks prevent nothing, regardless of what you claim. IF they did work, why are enough people getting sick?
    Everyone is going to come into contact with this bug. There is no getting around it.
    The masks serve to prove that some people will buy anything, including BS from msm, and submit themselves to government intrusion AND cast chains for the rest of us.
    It only makes sense to the insane...............

    You are right, you didn't say anything about Trump; I did. My apologies if what I said made it sound like you were supporting this treatment because of Trump. I introduced Trump just to say how politicized this issue has become; I also said that from extreme left (Maduro) to extreme right (Bolsonaro, who is to the right of Trump), leaders have touted this drug ahead of scientific scrutiny, making of it a politicized issue.

    The Lancet study, like I've already said, showed the drug enhancing by more than 30% the mortality rate. Look, these are 100,000 patients on it versus 90,000 without it. Whatever the South Koreans are saying, I trust more The Lancet's study because of the sheer N (number of subjects, thus, statistical power).

    Sure, doctors have prescribed it... even to family members, which resulted in a sell-out, with lupus and RA patients having had trouble finding it. But this was mostly in the early days. Like I said, the EVMS protocol *used* to have HCQ, but no longer has. That is, those doctors in Virginia started by prescribing it... but no longer do, once the studies came out.

    Anyway, fine, it seems like I won't convince you of this, so, like is often the case in debates when there is an irreconciliable difference, let's agree to disagree. I enjoyed debating the issue with you anyway, and you do make many good points like I said several times. For example, what you just said about the politicizing of the lockdown. Agreed.

    By the way, I want to finish by agreeing with you once more: indeed, I just read a Chinese study with 7,300 cases of transmission being looked at, and do you know how many occurred outdoor? One!!!! One lousy freaking case!!! All the others caught the disease indoors.

    So, it does seem like you are right that whatever is being imposed on the population regarding outdoor activities (and even masks when worn outdoors) is overkill. With sunlight and winds, it seems like the possibility of outdoor transmission is minimal. Like I said, I'll remain cautious even outdoors because of my underlying medical conditions, but it gives me hope that all that we've seen with beaches and parks and pool parties and people watching the SpaceX launch and demonstrations, all outdoors, won't result in a second wave of contagion, after all. And it gives me hope that we'll see an NFL season with people on the stands in open air stadiums (the team I root for has an open air stadium), college football (most stadiums are open air), concerts in parks, etc. We need some fun. Here is the study, you'll like this one:

    Cheers!
    Thanks for the discussion Centerfield.....and the links. Of course you need to do whats Right for you above all or anything else. You wont see me fault you or any other that has to watch themselves. To do whats Right for you or them.
