So let's ask the question, "What is the expected health outcome of mask wearing?" Is it to reduce Covid-19 morbidity and mortality?
If that answer is "no," we can pitch the masks.
If that answer is "yes." Good. Now we know the plan. Reduce morbidity (complications) and morbidity (death) due to a objective criteria.
Let's start with cigarettes (decreased oxygenation of the lungs). Let's pitch the junk food (obesity factor). Abolish alcohol (alcohol diminishes the oxygenation processes). And on and on we go,
When I see someone pull down their mask to smoke during a C-19 "pandemic," it's probably best they not judge others.
Blessings! Mark

Steven, I did see that bill board.
The masks are just part of a bigger manipulation of the masses before an election. Trump will probably win despite the liberals attempt to control everyone and destroy the economy to make him look bad.
I'm not buying it, not wearing a mask to promote a political agenda., lol , ( or...not wearing one to do the same). Amazing how just a small few people would do about anything to win, and millions would blindly follow.

The Indiana mandated that all Indiana residents 8 and over have to wear them, only to be told by the AG it is illegal. No problem, it is the Gov's order. I refuse to comply. Guess I always was a rebel.

Sheep analogies have been used since biblical times, Our governor has mandated masks on the basis of medical treatment. How is a mask medical treatment? At best it would be medical prevention. At worst case, law enforcement might have a talk with you to encourage you to ware a mask but I have yet to hear of anyone getting fined for not wearing one. Right now the plan for school is the bus driver takes the students temperature and if the students has a temp or refuses to ware a mask, the driver still takes them to school and the parents are to pick them up. How is that going to do any good? This fall could be very interesting to say the least. If the Democrats get in, it's got to be a mess. If Trump gets in, the Democrats will be even more upset and things will get worse for all of is. I feel it's going to be a powder keg just waiting to blow. Really hope I'm wrong about all of this but don't see things turning out very well for the average Joe.

Can't go to school but we will need day care providers to ramp up. Good! Us conservatives don't believe in Socialism like Public schools. We hate Socialism. Seriously, You non-sheep are not sending your kids to a public school, like the sheep do?

What are the odds of me getting Covid? What are the odds of me dying from Covid? - Negligible, even as a septugedarian
What are the odds of the government fearmongers destroying the entire economy including my existence over this? - Danged near 100%
Here is my rational, if not scientific solution:
Mandate, and enforce masks and social distancing for 4 weeks--NOT ONE MINUTE LONGER
At the end of 4 weeks we will finally have a good understanding if this works or not. If it worked the virus will have been starved out of existence. It it did not work. pitch the whole idea as an ill conceived restriction. Either way, this crap is no longer necessary.

Sheep analogies have been used since biblical times, I am in agreement Les. As for the folks who favor masks, more power to you and be sure and stay 6 feet away from me. I assure you I’m going to stay at least 6 feet away from you. As a matter of fact I don’t even like being within 6 feet of myself but It’s a handicap I’m stuck with. Do the 6’ distance things and were all safe were told so be it. All good. Oh and please don’t judge wether that means I do or don’t care, and I’ll extend to you the same courtesy. Osky

There are too many Karens out there who act entitled to do their own thing which might endanger others. These people who just have to be entertained In bars because having a beer at home Isn’t good enough; or have to be buying knicknacks at Walmart because getting out of the house couldn’t possibly mean going into their back yard. all of this coupled with the “I Have A Medical Excuse“ lie to avoid protecting others AND themselves makes for lots of sick people. I agree with the governor because wearing masks, social distancing, and staying home have been successful in other parts of the world and can be here too. Minnesota’s numbers aren’t bad. The recovery rate is about 90%, meaning we only have about 5,000 active cases in the state. Many, many other states aren’t doing as well. With people taking precautions, fewer getting sick and a high recovery rate, we’re doing pretty well. And If wearing a mask allows me to get out and do things, I’m happy to do so if it will keep the retirees and others in my city healthy.
If you think it’s an imposition to wear a mask, at least show the curtesy of staying away from people.

Some of us wear the mask to protect others.Is that so hard to understand??? If it is,you have more than a mask problem. My main concern is my wifes health,and because I do the shopping,I appreciate those that wear masks,keep their distance from me,in an effort to keep from spreading the virus. Tom

Bigfoot died from the virus. It was on another tread. No mask was found near or on it.

Tom I'm sure you and others in the same situation would wear a mask even if it wasn't mandated. I can understand and appreciate that situation.
