Results The rates of all infection outcomes were highest in the cloth mask arm, with the rate of ILI statistically significantly higher in the cloth mask arm (relative risk (RR)=13.00, 95% CI 1.69 to 100.07) compared with the medical mask arm. Cloth masks also had significantly higher rates of ILI compared with the control arm. An analysis by mask use showed ILI (RR=6.64, 95% CI 1.45 to 28.65) and laboratory-confirmed virus (RR=1.72, 95% CI 1.01 to 2.94) were significantly higher in the cloth masks group compared with the medical masks group. Penetration of cloth masks by particles was almost 97% and medical masks 44%.

97% seems to be better than 100% no?

They took a little different route, there is pros to that too, however the numbers don't lie. They have more deaths per mil (~530) than the US (~407) and much more than Germany (~110) or their Scandinavian neighbors in Norway (~46), Finland (~59) or Denmark (~104).

And that with them having a far healthier population than you have and also we have. Not so many fatties there.

So far it looks like their model wasn't that good regarding protecting their population.
The thing you need to keep in mind is that they're pretty done where the rest of us are still largely locked down.

It's served me well so far buddy. My personal frustration comes from the complete 180 on public medical advice. The medical community at large was just telling us a few months ago masks weren't effective, that they'd instill a false sense of security, and needed to be reserved for medical providers and the sick.

And now everyone should be wearing one and we're all idiot Trumptards if we don't. Maybe if one of those public officials came forward and admitted they were wrong in the beginning, we'd have a little easier time accepting their advice going forward.
I think it has been admitted that they lied in order to preserve masks for healthcare workers. But the topic has been politicized which may have drowned that out.

I'm impressed that Florida has so many cases and still manages such a high positivity rate.
This is a once-in-a-generation viral phenom.
Florida is dynamic and explosive all at once. Florida can drug you, rob you, infect you. Wherever you go, Florida is gonna take you down.
Were cut from a different cloth. If you can survive gators, flakka and violent crime this covid19 is some pussy shit.

A prison inmate was stabbed 11 times and they said he died from covid. I'm more worried about mosquitoes

Try this redneck mosquito spray for your patio or any other outdoor areas. It works

Maybe were you hail from, we are pretty much 2 months out of lockdown now.
Sweden still has more new cases than we do, with 1/8 of the population that is also less dense.

They went herd immunity route didn't they?
Numbers would suggest so wouldn't they?

If so then I like that model.

and yes, way too many fat fatties...way to much fat
So far they have chosen the more deaths way. We will see how it develops. Sure in the end it could have been the better way.
But are you aware the main virologist from Sweden said a couple days ago that with what he knows now, he would have advocated for stricter measures?

What percentage of the German population had it?

Yet selling of N95's, N99's, or surgical masks is banned by OfferUp, LetGo, and Facebook Marketplace, despite a mandatory mask order.

This has nothing to do with disease and everything to do the adaptive facial recognition.

Part of the equation is adding all the variables.

The United States has more damage to its citizens than most on earth.
Obesity is #1 by a longshot, then everything in and around that, including diabetics, sleep apnea, anxiety, psyhological disorders, heart conditions, asthma, high cholesterol and stroke risk, deviated septums.....pretty much everything under the sun.
How is this a factor in mask-wearing?
Because restricting airflow means increased stress and lower oxygen in the human body, which means compromised immunity and susceptibility.

So everyone judging everyone need to STFU forever, because none of us know exactly what is what and we're all sure to die.
Those chances are 1/1. More important is how people treat each other while they're here, and for the country, it's liberty and freedom of information.

Between all information sources, I wear an N99 with easy exhaust when I must go somewhere populated; easy in and easy out.
I have a routine I use for everything I do, and do it to the best of my ability.
My regime is juicing outdoor plants, particulary dandelions, kale etc., things with high Quercetin levels, zinc, vitamin C, anti clotting micro and macro nutrients, etc.
In addition, daily Centrum(old man silver), 2-3 grams Vit.C, 5grams Vit.D, Vit.K500mcg, VitB625mg, Zinc 50mg 2x daily, echinicea/goldenseal 2x daily, Quercetin Bromelain with stinging nettle, NAC 1000mg, and an acidophilus probiotic about twice a week.
Exercising and losing weight(sweating) and outdoors as much as possible, and **sleep**. No alcohol, no takeout, no smoking.
I spend time in the garden because it's imperitive.
I don't "put on Covid weight", that's literally the stupidest thing one can do.

This is just what I do.
With all the purposeful misinformation, all one can do is continue to learn and adapt, and not judge others because no one knows another's circumstances, and it's only poison for the soul.

Social media is the worst; the memes I see..."If you're wearing a mask in a car alone, you're a special kind of stupid", and so on.
How the heck does anyone know why they're wearing the mask?
Maybe they're sick borrowing another's car and trying to be helpful.
Maybe they're test driving a car.
Maybe they share deliveries.
Maybe it's a service-related drive of a customers vehicle.
Maybe they don't have triple HEPA filters on their vehicle air intakes and driving through a high-risk area during an airborne declared pandemic, and want extra protection.
Who tf knows?

This entire plandemic is TO create division(maybe civil war/police state), a soft war, leading into a hard war.
I no longer see a JFK-type assassination as low-probability.

You and I are so ridiculously different in our thinking and approaches to life and I love you.

You...


....are a very interesting person.


As a side note, I sometimes wear my mask in my car becasuse I can't be arsed to take it off after leaving the last place I was at that required one especially if I have to put it on at my next destination.

Plus I think it actually looks cool. I look like a Sub-Zero type superhero.
