    So basically virtue signalling. Unless you have the habit of sneezing in people's faces (which I consider to be pretty rude).

    Why do you cover your naked body when you go out in public?

    Do you do it because it is the law? Or do you do it out of respect for others?

    Because if you went out naked, it would show disrespect for the law and others!

    You are not being asked to wear a mask to prevent yourself from catching the disease.

    You are being asked to wear a mask to prevent you from spreading the disease to others.

    Until we are all tested to know if we have the disease ourselves, no one knows who is affected, or who is not, so every one is suspect until we are able to know one way or another.

    It is simple courtesy with a side of smart health care. It keeps you from spreading your deadly viruses among strangers.. You can have it and not show symptoms. The wise and kind thing to do is to not broadcast your viruses everywhere you go, Unless you are a righty and think "fuck everyone else, I do what i want:".

    An infected person doesn't have sneeze in you face to infect you. In enclosed places like shopping aisles the infected droplets can stay suspended in the air for up to 30 minutes. So much for your smart ass response.

    Actually it's both for personal protection and not spread the virus if infected.

    Do you breath that same air while wearing? Because if you do the mask does nothing.

    Yes, if I go in a store. I figure, surely it can't hurt anything.

    I don't wear masks outdoors, never at the beach.

    Doing the right thing is not virtual signaling. It is however shaming those who don't.
    Russian trolls and their supporters go on Ignore, automatically: no second chance.

    Have you ever heard the term filtration? Most masks filter up to 95% of the droplets that land on them, at the same time they stop 100% of the sneeze thus not contaminating the surrounding air. Why do surgeon's wear a mask when operating? Not to contaminate the wound, I guess you are smarter than the medical profession.

    Do you have filters in your AC/heating system in your home? How about your car do you change the oil filter, and the air filter.

    Your argument is as asinine as going out in public unmasked.

    I won't argue with that!

    But, there will be others that will, and that's why I didn't mention that.

    Anyone stupid enough to argue the facts won't be arguing with us but the brightest and best the worlds medical community has to offer.

    Just remember, all the non-Trump supporters have to do is tell the truth about DOnald Trump.

    That puts us in a much better position that the Trump Base who have to rely on lying about EVERYTHING- EVERYTHING!

    Let me tell you, when the truth is this bad, there will never be a reason to lie about it!
