my mom was a nurse - wore masks all the the time during surgeries.
And why did she wear a mask in surgery?

To keep from spreading germs.

Anyone inside a surgery room must wear a mask for the protection of the surgery patient.
Exactly, yet the reason we were supposed to wear masks during Covid was so we wouldn’t catch it. It made no sense whatsoever.

A worthy choice.

One of my favorite Sowell quotes:

Imagine if a majority of black folk would idolize and emulate black intellectuals like Sowell and Clarence Thomas instead of Jasmine Crockett.

Boortz had an excellent analogy about government schools.
Imagine that a couple was moving to a new town and their real estate agent was showing them around. They are taken to a grocery store, and the agent tells them that this is where they'll buy their groceries. She tells them that even if the produce isn't great, the dairy is sometimes old, or the selection isn't what they want, they have to shop their no matter what.
It sounds crazy, but it's exactly what happens with government schools, and the system is so ingrained that it seems normal now.

I highly recommend reading Thomas Sowell. He is definitely one of the great minds of American history.

He indeed once was a socialist. Then he noticed what titties could do to a free man. A legend was then born.

Back in 2016 before he entered the presidential primary Dr.Ben Carson came to Shreveport for a book signing at Lifeway Book Store.
I drove from Grant Parish to buy his book,have him sign it,shake his hand and have a picture taken with him.
I would guess at least 300 people were in line ,all white.Not one black person.I would have thought black professional people,at least,would have celebrated his accomplishments.
I guess not.

Yes, your mother wearing surgical masks during procedures is the same thing as the population wearing cloth masks to contain a respiratory virus. Great work!
