    Not a damn thing will change. Wait for it.

    Well, you might die if your state becomes "no mask, no service." You might dumpster dive for your necessities. Or perhaps you are willing to pay huge fines whenever you go out in public. Masks should not be a political issue, but it is.

    I note growing pressure from the right to get Trump to start advocating masks.

    If Trump comes out tomorrow and urges everyone to wear masks, people on this forum would reverse their positions. You would be demanding that people wear masks, and the left would stop wearing them because of Trump.

    Your best option is staying out of the way of it then.

    Avoid large crowds where you’re in close proximity to other people for extended periods. Stay away from BLM protests. If it were me [I’m not you and I’m not going to tell you what to do] I wouldn’t worry too much about the store, the bank and what not. If you feel like you should wear a mask when you’re out—wear it.

    I have a stretchy spandex tube mask that covers my neck and up over my nose, and of course it says "MAGA." When I go places, I keep it tucked into my belt for easy access if i need it to get into a business. I boldly go into every business with no mask, but if a human enforcer enforces a mask policy for a private business I am ready to wear it. So far, nobody has enforced a mask policy, other than a stop in the VA emergency room.

    The energy source in the coat example would be the human body. The energy source in the Earth's example is the sun. We can raise the temperature of something that is creating heat by insulating it. This is all very simple. Insulation is a real thing, and it can raise temperatures when heat is applied.

    I hope you are right, but many people think they do not have Covid-19, and then do. They spread it, because they do not realize they are spreading it.

    Flus are caused by the influenza virus. That is a completely different virus, in a completely different family than the Coronavirus. It is like arguing that dogs are goldfish, because they both swim in water.

    HIV could be eliminated. I did not say it was eliminated. Smallpox has been eliminated, except for some samples kept in labs. It is no longer killing people.

    The WHO did not stop everyone from getting Smallpox, but merely reduced the transmission to a low enough level that it went extinct.

    You are just plain wrong. It has been proven that you are wrong many, many times. You refuse to accept any evidence.

    Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs. It can be caused by bacteria, virus, or several other possible causes. Covid-19 often causes pneumonia.

    Many of the super-spreaders had no symptoms. Choirs appear to be the ultimate spreaders. Speaking (or singing) loudly in doors is a major way to spread it.

    Most certainly not.

    And isn’t CO2 a greenhouse gas that causes warming?

    Therefore won’t people who wear masks overheat their innards?

    why is so important for you to be a moron. A face mask doesnt change the oxygen or the CO2. This is easy to google you inbred knuckle dragger

    If one is showing no symptoms of Covid19, they are not sneezing or coughing it on people. No problem. No vector of dispersal. Covid19 is an airborne virus. Masks won't stop it.

    It is not eliminated. People have simply received vaccines against it.

    The WHO did nothing. Smallpox infections were reduced by vaccines, not by any political organization.

    Pneumonia is a bacteriological infection. It can be treated. Covid19 by itself does not kill.

    Evidence? Note: You cannot use Wikipedia, any news service, the CDC, or WHO. You must declare who collected the data, when it was collected, the method used to collect it, and it's correlation to the statement you just made.
