The opposite of freedom isn’t a mask, it’s a ventilator.
@Sean Hovan how can you compare hitler to a pandemic? lololol.
@SMS enterprise inc. yes their is. those that called it a fake virus, CAUGHT THE VIRUS, spent weeks or months on ventilators and now are all over t.v. screaming IT’S NOT A HOAX lolol. those that died of this fake virus are the ultimate in being ignorant. be well.
@Freedom & Liberty Bot i don’t have a political party but why don’t you just live your conviction? keep NOT wearing a mask, social distance, or anything else that would help and once you catch it just live OR DIE with it at home alone? seems simple to me. be well.
@Sean Hovan so this is just a way to stick it to your political rival? lolol. hope you live your conviction and once you get the virus live or die with it at home alone. DON’T go to the hospital asking for help.smh. be well.
😂
You have the freedom to be a moron, don’t abuse it.
@Tom Manley No, Tom, we READ, unlike you and Trump.
@J M M https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/47265/has-the-number-of-pneumonia-deaths-in-the-us-dramatically-dropped-in-2020…. Some facts for the child.
@J M M You watch the black box. If you would read you would learn something instead of regurgitating MSM talking points..LMFAO …AGAIN
@J M M Me & Trump are well to do, how about you child…LMFAO…AGAIN
Doc says they have not run out of PPE. That is because Newsom’s 990 Mil$ deal with China to buy PPE instead of buying American:
https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/Newsom-extends-California-s-medical-mask-deal-15426955.php That is what you can expect from A democratic gov’t. Buy from China when we make this PPE in America now. Vote Republican across the board! How can you vote for Democrat dictator Newsom as he sends CV19 relief money to China?
“President Shrug Emoji”
How are we taking your freedom away by telling you to wear a mask is beyond me. Protecting your colleagues and neighbors should be priority number.
These are Trumps folks! Plus I ask, why wasn’t this Event Shutdown.
@SMS enterprise inc. I guess you missed biology class, probably with quite a few other classes. Explain droplet transmission, why your comment is just idiotic, and then apologize for spreading misinformation.
@Becca K congratulations genius, you stopped someone from spitting in your mouth 🤣 however, so how exactly does it stop airborne pathogens? a pathogen smaller than a micron 🤣 if you’re getting oxygen through your mask, you are consuming airborne pathogens..fact. now put that empty space you call a brain back into the sand
@SMS enterprise inc. ” pathogen smaller than a micron 🤣 if you’re getting oxygen through your mask, you are consuming airborne pathogens..fact. ”
How do you say such stupid things without being embarrassed? Go look up droplet transmission and then come back and apologize for trying to spread your ignorance. Are you trying to make anti-maskers look stupider than they already do? Your misplaced confidence is kind of impressive, you absolute, ignorant joke.
@SMS enterprise inc. oh look here a supper duper smart trump fan LOLOLOL why would you embarrass yourself trying to act like a intellectual with such Bullshit?
This isn’t ABOUT “You don’t want to be in our ICU bed.” These people do NOT have the right to put OTHERS in an ICU bed. We do NOT have the “freedom” to HARM OTHERS.
@Pokarot Only problem with that “argument” is no one is forcing people into doing anything they’re uncomfortable with.
@Pokarot buy online…. anything else you haven’t heard of? Seems you’ve been living under a rock so long….. that you having nothing to worry about at all.

@Pam Deshane I would rather have a dictator like Newsome than trump. I don’t care if he bought the ppe and n95’s from Mars. PPE and N95’s are needed to protect the doctors and nurses who care for the patients. You do know that nurses and doctors have died because they did not have the proper equipment. I don’t care if you vote for trump that’s your choice.
@Freedom & Liberty Bot “Only problem with that “argument” is no one is forcing people into doing anything they’re uncomfortable with.”
I’m uncomfortable with being sent to the ICU and put on a ventilator, your bullshit is enabling that. Just like how I can’t scream, “FIRE!” in a crowded movie theater you have to realize your right to swing your fist stops exactly where my nose begins.
These people don’t love freedom. They love their entitlement. This isn’t about being free, this is about hubris.
Mr. James – that is a DIRECT quote from #AgentTang, the Russian moles in the White House, not Andy Anderson.
@Leslie Witherspoon The only thing that brought the virus out here was the BLM protesters who came here from St Louis. They admitted it on their FB page because locals there with them got it too. Some old folks in nursing homes here died as a result. I guess old lives don’t matter to them if it’s the rights they like.
@Leslie Witherspoon Here we know who’s vulnerable and protected them without talking anyone’s rights. It was the people who went to the protests with the people with Covid from St Louis then spread it to their family who went to work at the nursing homes. When they let BLM protest but closed business while keeping Wal Mart open, they lost all credibility. I didn’t go to church for months of my own free will but BLM didn’t care.
Ehh, they’re just researched….

Leslie Witherspoon what a jackass.
The fact that people still think it’s a hoax. They are the ones that should be going to school. Wear a mask. Honestly saying wearing a mask is tyranny, your just making the problem worst.
ZeroMass also how am I ignorant. I’m not the one calling the pandemic 👆”Fake News”👌
Pam Deshane thank you for your so called “expert” opinion 🙄
@SuperThunderGoodGuy quote where I said that? Just another spin master eah, Kiddo?
ZeroMass huh?
@SuperThunderGoodGuy You misunderstood my comment which was directed at the hypocrisy of Mr SMS enterprise inc. I liked your original comment, I agree with masks, and I believe Trump is a huge knob spanker
The solution . Broadcast a new patient being put on a ventilator . Watching the hoses being installed might make some Americans wear a mask .
maybe if they just stop smoking

🖕🏻GOLUBOI
Broadcast this at CNN HQ https://youtu.be/5K5Sf3yix9o
That strikes at the heart of this situation. The people screaming about their liberties are among the class that has seldom had to endure any real hardship. They live relatively easy lives and are completely numb to the suffering of others. They haven’t been forced to confront harsh realities of life. They need a great big dose of humility. I agree that they should witness the ICU experience of a Covid patient, but best choose one of the healthy 30-somethings to show them, otherwise they’ll just find some reason to blame the victim.
They won’t show an extremely obese person or an 80 year old being put on a ventilator. Masks are a Vaccine, MSM has told U this over and over again until you believe it! If your not over 65 or not Fat with diabetes , heart disease, cancer, etc. You will be just fine! Doc says they have NOT ran out of PPE.

90% of the Americans hospitals put on ventilators for Covid 19 have DIED…
You just gave me chills!
EU and U.S. Covid-19 Statistics, including U.S. Children as of 08.06.20
[Due to shifting COVID-19 cause of death criteria amongst and within governments (not to mention possibility of artificial inflation or deflation of numbers), these numbers are inherently inaccurate to some degree]
EU Population=~445.2 million
EU Cases=1,461,441
EU Deaths=136,863
EU Percent infected= ~0.39%
EU Chance of death after infection=~9.37%
https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/cases-2019-ncov-eueea
U.S. Population=~329 million
U.S. Cases=4,802,491
U.S. Deaths=157,631
U.S. Nursing home related deaths=~60,000 (some Governors mandated nursing homes to accept suspected and/or confirmed covid positive clients, which may, in part, account for these deaths)
U.S. Percent infected=~1.46%
U.S. Chance of death after infection=~3.28%
U.S. Tests performed=65,756,307 (approximately Twice as many as the EU)
Speculative guesstimates:
1. If EU did as many tests as the U.S., reports might show 0.78% of the EU population infected.
2. If some U.S. governor’s did not mandate nursing homes to accept COVID-19 positive/suspected clients, US death toll may look something like 110,000.

In regards to children, many are either asymptomatic vectors (commonly conflated with immunity) or have mild symptoms. As of May 16, 2020, 176 U.S. children under the age of 18 have died of the flu, and some months have passed since then; so, current numbers are likely higher. Currently, there have been 180 U.S. deaths for people from ages 1 to 24 years of age due to COVID-19 (obviously some of these 180 deaths are probably not children), It appears that the lethality of covid-19 in pediatric patients is equal to or less than the flu’s. However, there is anecdotal evidence suggesting a possibility of medium to long-term damage in some individuals who had been afflicted with COVID-19

Ok but it’s not that many.
328million people in the us 5million cases 162k deaths(which is probably way off) that’s less than 1 percent chance for dieing from covid. Let’s not talk about that sends out the wrong narrative
ICUs are where people go when they stand a really good chance of dying. Once they hit a week, they are not going to make it. Wear the mask so you don’t spread it. Hope that others wear the mask so they don’t give it to you.
@Nicole Zanders First, you are assuming that every other patient in the world is as resilient and has the same good fortune you had.
Second, COVID, as you should know, even though you are not a physician, attacks multiple systems simultaneously. You can have major systemic failure SIMULTANEOUSLY. Lungs, heart, kidneys, liver, bowel, circulatory, etc. Very ugly and very fast.
Your sepsis is comparatively easy to treat, with fluids, antibiotics and other supportive care. With COVID, they have little to nothing in the arsenal for treatments and, depending upon other underlying conditions, it will kill you much, much faster than 3 weeks.
As someone who is supposedly in charge of the care of infirm and elderly patients, your attempt to downplay this is very, very disturbing. Very.
That’s why you starting HCQ immediately. World studies:

@Diane Hooper Thank you for being a voice or reason! I’m an RN and have been wearing a face mask for 12-16 hour shifts for 35 years…other than dealing with a sweaty face now and then, no harm has ever come to me (or any of my colleagues for that matter). Get a grip people…it’s all about protecting and respecting each other!
@Pam Deshane Many countries have contained the spread with varying degrees of success, but the US is near the bottom of the list. Taiwan is at the top. They never closed schools or shut down their economy. They test, quarantine, contact trace, socially distance and all wear masks (since January). This will end once we have a vaccine. The US is failing catastrophically.
I’ve heard it said, “If you don’t like masks, you’ll really hate a ventilator.”

LISTEING. AT HIM. SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO WANT TO DO THE RIGHT THING. I M. SORRY. I WANTS TO LIVE. STAY AWAY FROM MEEE.
its just a mask, its just a lock down, the courts was closed for a long time, many people killed by murder during lock down, the crime rate went up 80% in most bigger cities, they didnt demand the face mask at first, they closed down small stores but allow you to go to packed walmart stores for your safety, its just a mask, and you dont even know what event 201 is or who owns it and why it was created to push a certain product, its just a mask so wear it, then its just a vaccine, take it, what could go wrong, Bill Gates cant even make a computer that does not get virus. and you trust him to make a vaccine for you? but its just a mask, submit and kneel, stop thinking. its just a mask, wear it, show us your loyalty to your slave master that wants to kill you. and give you vaccines that will limit your ability to reproduce, its just a mask, now surrender your freedom to travel or get the new REAL ID, its just a mask, nothing more, what could possible be later forced onto you and your loss of rights and freedoms for your demand of temporary safety and your feelings, its just a mask, many people living in fear have killed themselves now due to this, they locked themselves inside their homes and died, its just a mask, wear it, farmers in the philippines are being forced to go back home and not allowed to go to their farm lands to hire help for harvest and now going broke and world food shortage, and police given shoot on sight orders, but its just a mask, wear it, submit now, your being told to give up everything, including your life, but its just a mask so wear it.
Let’s hope that only Trump’s base gets covid from ignorance

@Sexy Scorpio ain’t that the truth 👍
I see all kinds of people wearing mask tripping in public.
Reduced oxygen is not good, especially for illness.
I’m a biker and I feel compelled to state this. We are not all idiots.

most bikers consider posers on harleys idiots…
Let’s review! Home Equity Loan to Purchase an overpriced motorcycle to put in a trailer to haul to Sturgis to call wearing a mask stupid.
@Electoral College Enslaved Alumni i AM CRACKING THE HELL UP AT YOUR NAME LOLOLOLOL. BRILLIANT lolol.
@quest 77051 thanks. I have great respect for everyone that notices.
Have fun riding your Harley’ when you are tied to a ventilator. Stupidity has its own rewards and stay tuned for forthcoming regret stories.
Jeff Dude, America is going to be Canada’s b****. They’re handling this pandemic way better than us, and are actually keeping us out of their country now. We’re the unwelcome immigrants/visitors almost everywhere around the world because of lil’ Donnie “It’s going to go away” Trump.
Bubba and Skeeter still havent figured out why Mom doesnt answer the phone anymore.
Chicago and New York still had their gay pride parades this summer.

I say fence them all in together somewhere and let them get their herd immunity. Keep those non believers together so we can get better and move on with our lives. These upticks are THEIR faults and the POTUS and his administration

These people need to understand that things like this can get out of hand quickly and if they want to go to this event next year they should skip this year for their safety as well as their families and friends once they go home.
What about those that are protesting, rioting and burning down cities. Should they also wait until next year, or are they immune as CNN and the DNC would have you believe? What’s your stance on all the congregations for the sake of rioting and whatnot?

@A Team It should be clear that this wasn’t directed to essential workers and businesses,
@Pam Deshane STFU !!!! PAM
It’s unfair the people who don’t take this seriously ruin it for everyone
@Paul Knowsit You need a test to tell you you’re not sick. Otherwise you can’t be sure. You could be asymptomatic or presymptomatic.
@Stephen M Look at Colorado’s numbers it’s a 25% difference between deaths caused by covid and deaths with covid. They are the only state currently putting out those numbers. You still don’t know what your talking about and you will still be in the herd with the other sheep. Its like talking to a wall with most of you popular opinion over facts people.
@miracle2012102 Nope. Don’t need it
@Paul Knowsit oh good, because you definitely dont sound nuts. But why even risk it? What if just on the slightest chance you’re wrong and a mask would help? It’s just a fucking mask.
