You need a link to understand how your body builds immunities once you are infected with viruses?

Here you go

If no one would have worn their fricking mask then we’d be closer to herd immunity, which is what they’ve said all along we would need, and we’d be mostly back to normal by now.


It takes a special kind of stupid to trumpet this kind of belief. Yes, 200 million americans with the condition for which we have limited resources to treat, limited beds in hospitals, no guarantee of the long term effects or ability to get it twice, and no vaccine or proven effective treatment would've been a huge success.

Even if infection with the COVID-19 virus creates long-lasting immunity, a large number of people would have to become infected to reach the herd immunity threshold. Experts estimate that in the U.S., 70% of the population — more than 200 million people — would have to recover from COVID-19 to halt the epidemic.

So, let me get this straight. Your point is that by not exposing yourself to viruses and other bacteria that get you sick, you're more likely to get sick?

Jesus Tapdancing Christ there are some idiots on this board.

Actually no. The guy just said that wearing a mask prevents you from getting ill from stuff, and in doing so is admitting that masks do work (which he's right about). It was a dumb take no matter how you slice it.

Most people are just cowards and fear anything they're told to fear. Amazing how easily the very average American can be swayed. frick, they've shut down some outdoor rec areas over this shite.

People will believe anything that gives the illusion of safety and is hip.

This is true, in reality it will be a few decades. There was some information shown on here once and I did some looking into it. Liberals from liberal states are moving in droves into conservative states. For the most part, conservatives don't move to liberal states. I don't exactly remember the numbers but it was mind blowing. Liberals move like roaches, it is what it is though.

I meant in reference to what you said here.

It just kind of logically follows that putting the immune system out of practice is going to result in weakened systems across the board for whenever everything opens back up.

Not really interested in if they’re effective or not, I assume they are even though there’s been some conflicting reports on that subject. I firmly believe that we are destroying the economy with arbitrary practices that may not save any significant amount of lives relative to a full reopening, and may in fact actually frick us over even more due to the aforementioned weakened immune systems.

The City of Central said they will NOT participate in this mandate. Mayor Barrow said it's up to individual businesses- not the City of Central.

OP — Does it also bother you that some folks wear sunscreen to protect themselves from getting skin cancer? Why do you care what others do to protect their health?

The immune system is not a muscle...you don't need to work it out to "keep it in shape"

I'd like to meet the officer that will adamantly go around enforcing this. I doubt he/she exists.
