  1. The maskless — are at the same time — potentially choosing to risk their own life or to take yours —- if you see some without a mask, protect yourself — -avoid them —- they are not “pro-life” they are potentially pro-death.

    1. @William H here you are again spewing you MAGA… Manipulate American Gullible Aholes and trumps supporters are proof of that

    2. Masks will be law. No Trump malarkey. Biden will finally give governors the power to dictate there own covid policies and regulations. Clearly all the deaths are Trump’s fault even nursing homes. He forced Cuomo and other governors to put covid cases back in nursing homes. Trump targeted minority communities with the covid virus his plan all along.

  2. As an RN working in critical care,
    wear a mask!
    This is worse than the flu;
    otherwise, I’ll be seeing your parents in the I.C.U.

    1. @BIgPimPing H to the izzo , Hey Hairy Nosepicker,
      Why can’t you upload a channel image? Are you really that stupid?

    2. @Ann van de Kew Hey there MSM lover still eating bat soup? Better stay back 6 feet or I’ll cough on ya😁

    3. Thank god Biden is our president now. He will mandate masks and social distancing. Lockdown entire country if needed. Jobs and permanently closed businesses can be replaced. People can’t. This is what our country wants a national lockdown its what our country needs. It worked in England, Germany, Greece, France etc. There covid problem is virtually eliminated. A success story. Bidens help and the help of his covid council Pfizer was able to announce news of a successful vaccine. This would not of happened if Trump was president. Our savior and chief has arrived. Thank you mr and ms Biden for creating such a great man that would be solely responsible for saving our country.

    1. In that case you put on orange makeup, dance to YMCA, and tell all the men in the front row that you want to kiss them. 🧚‍♂️🌈 Oh my!

  3. God Bless The United State of América in the name of jesuschist amén 💕 amén ❣️ amén 💖🗽🎺🇮🇱🇺🇸😷

    1. Free or low cost healthcare and college for everyone living in the country. Everyone. Citizens non citizens. No more borders and border wall. No more ice or border control agents. Unlimited immigration of anyone that wants to live here. A true utopian society.

  4. The Corona SARS-2 virus require a water droplet as protection and to infect. Aerosols are generally droplets which have many different sizes. . Although the virus diameter is <5 µm, the relatively large droplets are 10 µm to 100 µm, easily filtered by cloth.

  5. We Have finally got a vaccine against covid-45, and we may have an effective vaccine against Covid-19 very son, so Please wear a mask!

    1. @Jimmy Bagodonuts goooo MAGA… Manipulate American Gullible Aholes and his supporters are proof of that because birds of a feather flock together

    2. In only 3 days of Biden being president a proven vaccine has been announced. His covid task force and Bidens greatness have worked. He solved covid. Kept his promise. Masks will be mandated by law. Except if a minority is seen not wearing one by a caucasian American systemically racist cop. In that case the cop needs to call it in and get a neutral non racist murderer to enforce the non mask wearing person or person’s. No one deserves to get shot or killed for not wearing a mask. The African American community has suffered enough.

  6. It’s rather odd that no one questions a doctor for wearing a mask during a surgical procedure to prevent infection of a patient, to protect the patient and themselves, and they blindly follow those that say masks don’t work. People will die for the politics of the matter when the politics was intended to save lives. How ironic

    1. MuayThai forever Yeah… doctors, surgeons, surgical personnel, nursing staff, veterinarians, dentists, dental hygienists, clinical staff, researchers morticians, medical examiners…. it’s all been seen as necessary and sensible and required for a hundred years. And now, a bunch of ignorant right-wing thinkers are questioning the efficacy of masks. (Uhhh… will they understand all the big words I used in my comment ?)

    2. @K. McKee no the ignorant once will never understand the comments because they are FACTS… Facts Always Confuse TRump Supporters

    3. Yes I agree and with the comment bellow about convincing the ignorant. I will throw in also that the anti mask protests are anti compulsion of what are seen as Democrat mandates. Would mask wearing have been more common if Trump worried a bit less about the economic decline caused by social isolation? Maybe. He might then have had no reason to play down the pandemic and sugested mask wearing.

      Politics sometimes has perverse outcomes.

    1. BIgPimPing H to the izzo You’re correct! It kind of lends credence to that statement, those that forget history are doomed to repeat it!

    1. I was laughing about that this morning. Apparently nine white house staffers have Corona. They can’t even protect themselves.

    1. @James T. Kirk don’t forget the freedom of all murderers, rapists, bank robbers and tell the gray aliens they have permission to abduct all
      Democrats at will for probing and other experiments.

    2. when walking past people wearing masks i put mine on and vape trough it. The look in their eyes when they walk through a vape cloud blowed out of a mask is one of absolute pure defeat.

    3. @ari b lol. Masks stop all of the covid from spreading to others. Not. If Biden makes it law the government better provide fitted n95 medical grade masks or it will be pointless. The loop masks have been proven to not block covid either way. Bandannas are useless as well. Little or no protection.

  7. And trying to limit you and your families exposure to risky situations! Common sense for the common good and with common decency.

  8. There is a great video from when t’rump was getting corona treatment by a dozen of our best doctors where an unmasked t’rump supporter said he doesn’t think he’s at-risk for the corona because he’s young and healthy. The reporter asked him, well, what if you’re asymptomatic and you don’t know it, then you’d be spreading it to everyone around you unknowingly.
    The light bulb that went off in his head was almost visible.

    1. As well as protecting yourself and those around you, you are also doing your duty as a citizen to keep the hospitals from becoming swamped. Kudos to you!
