Im sure that has happened, but I'm pretty confident saying most doctors are not going to call it a covid death if the person did not have covid at all.

Happy trapping! ScottW

They could call it a covid death with out even testing them. All they had to do was suspect covid. Covid did not kill the most of them, they died with it not from it. Many had their lungs blown out while on respirators. When their bodies did not process the oxygen they cranked it up, until it blew out their lungs.

I guess if I was as afraid of this virus as much as they want me to be afraid of it, then I would stay home. Everyone is delivering or "safe" pickup so, stay home. People wandering around wal mart looking for someone to yell at that don't have a mask on is not a problem solver.

Now that everyone is wearing masks, cases are up , so the masks don’t work.

Even after the ground crews and waterbombers got on the scene dropping retardant, the fires just grew. Surely the efforts of the crews don’t work.

Those statements are about equal to me.

Fauci says it's common sense to wear 2 masks. Wonder why he didn't tell the public that a year ago? Is it because he recently got common sense? He helped politicize it and in my opinion has zero credibility.

Let’s just ask everyone a question here. I’m interested in the responses.

Let’s just say masks work to stop spreading viruses.
- influenza cases are down this year and they claim the mask wearing and social distancing has contributed to that

So here it is,

Will those of you who do it to protect others continue to do it for exactly that reason from here on out?

Pawnee, are they making the boys wear a mask while they play. My understanding is here in MN they have to wear a mask to play. My kids are grown and I can't watch the nephew play because of capacity rules so don't have first hand knowledge. I also understand they aren't making the wrestlers wear a mask but aren't allow to shake hands before and after.

I spent all fall in KS working and I'm here now visiting my daughter. It's refreshing.

I suggest some of my fellow Minnesotans who have completely drank the kool aid get out and see what conservative states are doing.

For what it's worth I don't have a problem wearing a mask, it's the shut downs and the utter disregard for businesses that have me peeved

My hope is the government will have to start making employment cuts.

I usually don't wear one and most places are understandable if I tell them I'm medically exempt. Costco employees are "mask nazi's" if masks falls below the nose they are quick to "remind you".

For those that don't research, just look at the warning labels on the box which usually state not to be used for infectious diseases or medical purposes.

Let's see the warning labels on your masks packaging.

Here's a box I have. The first 10 warnings are the original the last 2 warnings are the "pandemic exemption". I just took the pics on my phone.

With all the lies we are constantly bombarded with, why would you believe anything your told by a tv talking head??????????

DR Fakery was telling everybody masks don't work just a few months ago. You know back when he said millions would die in the next few months here in the U.S.

Tv's make good long range rifle targets. You will be much happier and better off.

Like I said in my last post. I have never taken to wearing a mask. I did to gain admittance to a dermatologists clinic because I need some skin cancer care. Would not let me in other wise.

Since last Spring, about May I think, I have made 3 trips to CO, one to WY, one to PA and one to NM. Got home yesterday from a pheasant hunting trip to the KS CO border. Didnt even take a mask with me on any of them. I did get told in PA I could not walk into a bar without one and once in Olathe I was refused entrance to a restaurant. I wore g string like a mask into a beer store in KC. MO.

A few people have given me the stink eye but no one has flappped their lips at me. I just look people in the eye when I see that pinched face Nancy Pelosi expression.

You don't carry a mask but just happened to have a g string. That's great!

The g string was made by my wife just for that occasion. It entertained me and upset the guy in the beer store. I also wore it into the bass pro store in Olathe several months ago. I ordered a case of ammo and went there to pick it up. Was told on the phone I had to have a mask. (since then I have discovered bass pro wont ask you to leave if your not wearing one) The manager asked me about my mask and I told him it was my way of protesting. He laughed and said he understood.

From your article in the Daily fodder.... "The CDC quietly updated their guidelines to say that masks don't work if you've come into close contact with someone for 15 minutes or more"

How often do you come into close contact with people when you run to the store? Me, almost never. So, by your own article it is still recommended to wear a mask if the exposure is <15 minutes.


Your WalMart store must open more lanes then the ones here.

The best way to avoid exposure to this virus is by avoiding people.
People are mistakenly believing that as long as they wear a mask and stay six feet away from people, they will be protected. This gives them the idea that they can go where ever they want no matter how many people they will encounter.
This virus is airborne as per the CDC. The virus can pass through the mask. Most of the air one breathes out goes around the edges of the mask.
You will more likely become infected, or infect the gal behind the counter from the exchange of cash, credit card, or from the goods purchased due to continuously adjusting masks without washing your hands after EVERY time you touch your mask.

I believe this is correct. It also make perfect sense to me that the virus is passed through the wearing of mask, because we touch them a lot and then touch our money or whatever we pass to someone else. I've worn one and not worn one, depending on the situation but I don't believe they do a darn thing to keep you from getting the virus.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

There is so much evidence that masks dont work that you would have to be blind not to see it. There is also a ton of research that says the same thing if you're willing to look. Most arent though, they just do what they are told. So many highly educated doctors out there have said as much.

I know when I wear a mask I am constantly messing with it, probably touch my face 50x more because of mask. And my hands are already dry and cracking this time of year so if I tried to use sanitizer everytime they'd really be a wreck. I only wear mask when it's absolutely required like taking my baby boy to the Dr

I think a mask slows down and often stops water droplets, which is why we wear them.

Maybe so, but is the "virus" only in the droplets? If in the air to, it will still get out.
