    In order to be logically consistent, all trumpers refusing to wear a mask and going into surgery soon, should DEMAND that for the sake of their right of choice, no one in the surgery room should wear a mask.

    Hell, be a real man and ask your surgeon to sneeze and cough in your open gut, or chest, or head. Prove that these masks are just political tools used by weak liberals.

    You can get infected through the eyes, but you are not spreading the virus with your eyes.

    And that is the point of the mask - to prevent you from giving the virus to someone else.

    Just gonna note that her mask had a filter inside. So yea, still vastly more effective than not wearing a mask.

    A) It has absolutely nothing to do with Sharia.
    B) The countries which are handling this virus the best - i.e. East Asia - are also the countries with the highest degree of mask usage before mask usage was being recommended for everyone.

    Why is it that trumpers rarely have even the most elementary information? I guess Fox and Limbaugh et al avoid any real science altogether.

    What's a "Trumper"? Is that a cheeky way to say a Trump voter?

    Exactly, or at least below the nose. If masks are not properly used by trained people, it's worse than no mask.

    Keep your damn sharia law out of hospitals too. Own your truth and mean it everywhere. Masks are useless symbols of virtue signaling that do nothing. A surgical team is only placating fear mongering cowards. Germs are everywhere. No point in keeping them out of your chest, your vital organs, or your brain. Only 500, 000 people die from post operative infection a year so there is plenty of leeway. If people die from infection, then its probably time anyway.

    and those who buy into and believe his delusions and lies. Not to mention those who condone his calls for mass murder, extreme torture, and support his coddling of cold-blooded killers.

    Zip ties work good to snug up a foil cap. So you are insulting a group?

    If 1 in 50 is half then he is exactly right. Though people should be more informed about how to use a mask but even if incorrectly worn it is not worse than no mask

    Try responding to the content of my post rather than changing the subject. It was masks and whether consistency in RW arguments against masking, should not extend to hospitals and the medical profession

    It's pretty comon sense. If you think you were in an exposed environment, take your gloved hands (ideally) and take off your DISPOSABLE mask (not your washed rag) and toss the mask and gloves...wash your hands (and / or sanitize) right away.

    Depends which side of it you are touching! One side has your spit, the other whatever you have walked through to get where you are.

    As I read these Right Wing Republicans and Trumpers talk about how they joyfully ignore the warnings and recommendations and glory in the paid propaganda from the top 1% wanting to be recapturing the heady days of new stock market highs at the expense of encouraging new Coronavirus highs death rates, I am so happy I have not started eating and using the preps I got procured earlier in earlier January.

    In many locations, the USA is getting out and dancing about without even minimum precautions for infectious disease.

    For God's (or maybe Satan's sake?), the supposedly most advanced superpower hasn't been able to produce N95 masks for any of the general population to be able to buy one, and still often ration those masks for health care workers.

    This President's actions and this pandemic have exposed the fact that the supposed primacy of the USA has become a joke.

    True, but the mask would have trapped whatever you walked through going straight into your mouth or nose which would have presented much more of a risk

    Which is a valid argument for compulsory mask wearing. If everyone wore a mask there would be a lower risk of touching a contaminated surface
