    I will allow my OP to stand as written.
    The only points I have to make are inside my OP and in my follow up
    posts. I have no other points to make right now. I do not need to make
    any other points. You have made your points and you can continue to
    make your points.
    Calling him Dr. "Foochie" is not name calling. I prefer to call him
    Dr. "Foochie" and will continue to do so. My opinion of Dr. "Foochie"
    is he is a fear-monger with a political agenda that sides with
    the Liberal Democrats and the likes of Biden -- the Liberal Democratic
    Party is THE party of fear-mongering in order to hawk their political
    agenda -- and Dr. "Foochie" is their political tool to do exactly that
    in the midst of this COVID virus.

    You have a good mind and you can instantly spot something
    that is credible and convincing. I dare you to read this article
    titled , , ,
    "A Sensible and Compassionate Anti-COVID Strategy
    by , , ,

    Jay Bhattacharya [who} is a Professor of Medicine at Stanford University, where
    he received both an M.D. and a Ph.D. in economics. He is also a research
    associate at the National Bureau of Economics Research, a senior fellow
    at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research and at the Freeman
    Spogli Institute for International Studies, and director of the Stanford Center
    on the Demography and Economics of Health and Aging. A co-author of the
    Great Barrington Declaration, his research has been published in economics,
    statistics, legal, medical, public health, and health policy journals.
    End quote.
    A Sensible and Compassionate Anti-COVID Strategy - Imprimis (hillsdale.edu)
    Imprimis is the publication of Hillsdale College.

    I get the hard copy of this magazine and I just recently read this.
    It is the October 2020 issue -- so its current stuff -- and it is really
    a very helpful article -- not to long either --its short and to the
    point.

    Read it and discover what The Great Barrington Declaration is.
    "To date, the Great Barrington Declaration has been signed by
    over 43,000 medical and public health scientists and medical
    practitioners."__from the article

    A Sensible and Compassionate Anti-COVID Strategy - Imprimis (hillsdale.edu)

    You make many reasonable points.

    Best.

    That sounds expensive.
    So to the tune of lets say 50 grand a person that gets infected (thats cheap), do you think the results of having all of them stand at measured distances to evaluate mask effectiveness is a priority?
    Is that what you want to see to "believe"?

    Revealing the same thing my video failed to demonstrate to you for what ever reason.

    He claims to be a scientist yet asks for "scientific proof"?
    Proofs exist only in mathematics and logic, not in science.

    You know what they say about grandmothers having balls. If there was an educational campaign on proper mask usage, and if people took it seriously, and if everybody stayed the hell home until they tested negative, and if...

    Do you remember the hours and hours of long winded sermons from all those idiot politicians on what people should do? I managed to watch a few minutes of Cuomo, and just couldn't figure out why he kept telling people his opinions on what he planned on doing for Thanksgiving (something about not inviting a lot of people?) Trump had quite a few of those as well, but I don't have the attention span for that kind of stuff.

    Did any of them ever take five minutes to show people how to properly use masks? How to wash their hands? That rings really should be taken off until this virus is yesterday's news? I'm guessing no. So while your utopian dream of Americans taking things seriously and being properly educated sounds nice, I'm afraid we will have to deal with reality.

    You strike me as the type of person that wears a mask in the car when you're by yourself. Is this an incorrect assumption?

    That would be a very incorrect assumption on your part. People wearing masks in their car while alone drives my wife and I nuts. It makes zero sense. Just like your assumption about me makes zero sense. Carry on.

    Thats funny cause, you strike me as someone like the OP, Borat, the guy i was stationed with in the navy who protested showers, and every other Trump supporter that still doubts climate change, and mask effectiveness.
    Is that an incorrect assumption?

    Simple common sense tells you touching the face diaper can spread cross contamination.

    Every day.
    Once again you thought wrong. No idea how you could even think that. Unless you’re just trolling.

    So you're not afraid of Covid and you agree it's just like any other virus one could get on any given day.

    Well then why are you guys so butthurt with Trump? We are all on the same page.

    If you're not afraid of the virus that has an EXTREMELY low mortality rate and has hundreds of thousands of False Positives...what exactly is your problem? You should be rooting for governments to open back up because you're not afraid of it.

    Well clearly I was mistaken. The arguments you've made have been about Trump's handle of this...but it appears we are all on the same page. That this is blown way out of proportion. I sincerely apologize for generalizing you. My mistake

    You clearly have me confused with someone else. I haven’t said anything about how Trump has handled COVID.

    Yea, I think all but 2 of us are on the same page about this mask situation.
    Borat, and the OP.
