The reality is people have always been like that though, the internet just gives them a microphone. It's even worse today because people's opinions on this are largely based on what their political views are and little to do with the actual facts. Go team, rah rah rah. |

It’s a simple concept that some people seem incapable of grasping

I stop at using government force to make people do as I seem fit... to a certain point.

I certainly prefer that is doesn't come down to that as well.

Only in America could wearing a mask during a pandemic become politicized.

My wife had a miscarriage around Christmas with our first expected child since we got married last July. Now, four months later, we're lucky to be expecting again but hopeful for a different result. I saw how it affected her, so if I can do anything in my power to not have that happen for her, or myself, again, I will do it.
Do I know that Corona will affect us negatively? No, there's a chance it could pass through easily on both of us. However it could have the exact opposite effect, and that risk is too much for me to take at this time. But I have to get out, we have to go to the grocery store, we have to eat, eventually we have to get haircuts, we have to have some social interaction with our friends to remind us that we aren't alone in the world and that there is an end to the tunnel. I get both sides, I apologize if anyone feels attacked by my comments in this or other threads, but for me there's no question why I do what I do. Rather safe than sorry is the name of the game for me, but I get why there was a massive party at Lake of the Ozarks on one of the only nice weather days of that weekend. I wouldn't do it, but I get why others would. Try not to shame others for what they do, but respect my choice to wear a mask and take risk averse actions to keep my family as safe as possible. Everyone you see out there has a reason to believe what they believe in this pandemic, but don't think you have the right to tell someone to believe something different then what they know is the right situation for them. |

Not sure if this has been brought up before but I found an interesting piece of history about the anti-mask league of San Francisco. Seems like we’re definitely just repeating history in a way.
The first mask requirement law in San Francisco was in place from October 25-November 21st 1918. Fun to note that the city health official and mayor paid fines for not wearing masks to a boxing match during this time. When another wave hit in January the masks were required again on January 17, 1919. This is when the anti-mask league of San Francisco was formed. The group presented a signed petition to the cities Board of Supervisors on January 27th, 1919 requesting the mask ordinance be repealed. February 1st 1919 it was officially repealed. Just found that to be pretty interesting. It sounds like people had similar ways of thinking about the masks 100 years ago. https://www.history.com/.amp/news/19...ing-resistance Last edited by POND_OF_RED; 05-28-2020 at 02:34 AM.. |

Department of health is paying for my antibody testing.
Not sure this will mean much as studies on antibodies for this look weak and scattered with what it means. |
