I have never been entirely clear what masks are for. Is wearing a mask intended to help you, the wearer from catching Covid ? I thought regular vaccinations did that. Or is it to stop you passing on Covid ? If so you would need more or less permanent testing to ensure you remain free from infection. Or is it to protect the NHS or even just because the 'science' says so ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I note she explicitly pointed out "medical grade masks" in that article, rather than the totally pointless bits of cloth the "experts" told us were helping. Might be time to buy shares in an FFP3 production facility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Brazil Forever Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 14 minutes ago, oaksoft said: The idea was that they help protect others because will help stop people coughing and sneezing into each others faces which is why surgeons use them in hospitals but the problem with covid is it doesn't travel just in large droplets of breath and the WHO now accept that. Covid travels mostly in nano-particles of moisture which are around 100 times smaller in diameter (or 500,000 times smaller in volume) than the pores in the mask. More than 90% of what you breathe out and in will escape via the sides of the mask and covid will largely escape the mask in the same way. What is deeply frustrating is the number of professional scientists (like Sridhar and Gurdasani) who have no opinions of their own and can't argue the case for masks using their own logic and will only ever point you to papers describing what other scientists think - papers they haven't fully read or understood themselves. IMO, governments know all this but they can't be seen to do nothing. Therefore they ask the public to chip in and help. Masks are there to give the public some feeling that they can do something about the virus. The idea is to encourage a bit of of "we're all in this together" Blitz Spirit. The entire thing is utter bollox. Thought as much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd_is_God Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Good. It can now dawn on another absolute weapon just how much of an idiot they have been for the last year or so, and the damage they have caused over what is, by now, no worse than a moderate cold. I see he has already hit out with the "thank god i was vaccinated" patter as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loonytoons Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 I wouldn't be surprised if masks and another booster/vaccination are on the cards from October through to Easter in Scotland regardless whether there is any COVID variant doing the rounds or not.If the booster isn't tied in with this winter's flu jab I'll be very surprised. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given compliance with mask wearing largely evaporated up here before the mandate was finally lifted I'd be surprised if that happened tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The evidence used for that assumption was based on how quickly facemasks were dropped after the facemask restrictions were lifted. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a very clear reduction in compliance with mask wearing up here when England, then Wales, ditched them and NS kept extending them. Claiming otherwise is just lying tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingswellsRed Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Think it definitely depended where you live. Around here masks were above 95% until a few days before 18th April. Was in Tesco tonight and didn’t see one mask. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
