This is your argument for long term restrictions and wearing useless masksOnce you’ve done that, then tell me how severe my phobia is. Those are not unreasonable assumptions.

Yep. Same way the flu is transmitted. CDC has decades of studies showing masks don't stop the flu either.
And as stated we have the head of the NIH in his email to a colleague saying masks don't work.
But carry on believing.
Actually...phobia sums up your position perfectly. And explains why you argue as you do.then tell me how severe my phobia is.
So you are saying Fauci is incorrect when he refers to the small size of viruses?I point out that your "small size of the viruses" comment was incorrect. Then you suggest that I am the one just believing.

You have Google. Look it up it is easy. Stop pretending you can't and/or the email was taken out if contextProvide a link to your silly smoking gun email. We can read it for you and tell you what they were really saying
Bingo. He fears death and......Actually...phobia sums up your position perfectly. And explains why you argue as you do.
You have a phobia.
No offense but I don't need to run any numbers to determine that you have a severe phobia. You've proven it over 298 pages. The sky is not falling and none of your worst case scenarios have come true.Just run the number and tell me what happens over the next 9 months if the India/Delta variant is in the US now with 100 or so cases, vaccinations are 10% above at current levels, and we return everything to 2019 standards.

These Dads in Cali are milk toast wimps bro. I can;t take it anymore. I had one ask me kindly to wear my mask this morning. I kindly said i had my "Vs" and he said, "ok, but can you please put mask on. People are scared still." I said no more and he said, "ok."No offense but I don't need to run any numbers to determine that you have a severe phobia. You've proven it over 298 pages.

Even if we run into some future bumps with the virus, which I don't expect, but are possible, we are way past the point of further lockdowns which would be untenable, unreasonable and unproductive.
We're both entitled to our own phobias, but were not entitled to have the public cater to them. It's our own personal responsibility deal with them. You don't have to come out of your bunker, but we're not required to join you.
I said 2 months ago that my opinion on ending masks depends on what we learn about variants.This is your argument for long term restrictions and wearing useless masks

You are saying that we, as a society, should make a trade. Accept 50K additional deaths. In return, we do not have to wear masks.No offense but I don't need to run any numbers to determine that you have a severe phobia. You've proven it over 298 pages.

I'm following the "science" of the CDC.You are saying that we, as a society, should make a trade. Accept 50K additional deaths. In return, we do not have to wear masks.
That is a bad deal. The cost of 50K deaths is not worth the benefit of 9 months without masks.
School and business closures are a different question. But masks? You really want to accept a significantly higher death rate just to avoid masks?
Link? I have no idea which of the emails you are referring to. Sounds like you’re quoting Fauci from February, 2020, and some decades old influenza studies that never had the sample size to detect a moderate effect.So it is right wing now to review emails?
And the email in question regarding masks was not taken out if context. You are a believer and look for anything to justify your beliefs.
He was asked about risks and safety. Fauci said your typical masks are not capable of stopping something as small as a virus. He said masks are "ineffective".
That is not some right wing interpretation. That is exactly what he said and it wasn't taken out if context.
And that aligns with decades of research of mask effectiveness. They found that even in medical settings, used by people wearing them correctly, they had no effect in terms of stopping the transmission of the flu.
The only thing that changed this past yr was the politics of the issue and governments decided they needed the appearance of being able to do something. So they recommended masks.
Interesting. Did you have your Vs?These Dads in Cali are milk toast wimps bro. I can;t take it anymore. I had one ask me kindly to wear my mask this morning. I kindly said i had my "Vs" and he said, "ok, but can you please put mask on. People are scared still." I said no more and he said, "ok."

Do you believe in God, yes or no? Today is D-Day so answer honestly too. No more freaking lies, ok? If you answer correctly, I will answer honestly with you. If no answer to my God Q, then sorry Charlie, no "V" answer.....lol. Come on manInteresting. Did you have your Vs?
It isn't the numbers- not even the financial ones. There is no economic case for TX ending the mask mandates or FL picking a fight with the cruise ship industry. Those are political attempts to win the anti-mask and anti-vax vote.Florida & Texas stay open, but that doesn’t have anything to do with the numbers.

If you want to help the economy, you allow vaccine passports for high risk industries. Carnival can sell more tickets to “100% vaccinated” cruises than they can sell for unvaccinated cruises.
