Many folks on this board were praising Europe and Asian countries in handling covid specifically with universal/mandated masks.

France and Spain are seeing positive case spikes.

quote:

Japan confirmed cases for weeks ending: June 13: 279
June 20: 417
June 27: 498
July 4: 985
July 11: 1,847
July 18: 3,003
July 25: 4,654


quote:

Reuters: Countries around Asia are confronting a second wave of coronavirus infections and are clamping down again to try to contain the disease, with Australia recording a record daily rise in cases and Vietnam locking down the city of Danang.

At this point I guess we need to do a mass suicide
It’s never going to be safe for anyone again

Someone needs to control the media and their spreading of the covid hoax.

It's become a war of political misinformation fought with disingenuous memes designed to reinforce preconceived notions and insult those with different opinions.

Common sense tells me that they help contain larger drops of saliva, but doesn't stop all of the particles that could contain virus.

The entire population will fall into one of these three categories:

1. Had COVID-19
2. Has COVID-19
3. Will have COVID-19

how's Sweden's curve


7 Day Average
158 cases
3 deaths

Population over 10 million.
Basically, sheltering frail people. And no huge events.

Getting the herd strong.

Some Japanese have been wearing masks almost their whole lives.
I'm in the "masks help some" camp.

Yep, the current narrative is “anyone who is anti-mask has very low intelligence and educational attainment levels,” and people are eating it up.

That is one side of the coin, but it goes both ways. People on both ends of the spectrum may disagree about particular points, but they are very similar to each other in how the act/react.

The media is driving the narrative that "everyone" isn't wearing them and that's causing our spikes.

It's just very political obliviously but facts are facts.
