LOL,moosey ,seems like some on here do not read well--or don't comprehend what is written. I never said Nugent was going to wear a mask. I said that those he once called sheep-pretty much were'nt so sheepish now. But you know how it goes on here. Makes a guy wonder--How many are actually trappers or just pot stirrers. Tom

After contracting covid,Ted no longer considers mask wearers --the sheep he called them. He actually thought he was going to die from the disease. Get well soon Ted,A journey to the center of the mind,without you is hard to imagine. Tom The article i read didn’t say anything about him changing his stance on masks, he just said he was sicker than he’d ever been in his life.

Tom Well I guess I could be called a pot stirrer, I had to log in to post. But you could call you self a pot stirrer also, your post was for nothing more then to get a reaction. Why did you feel the need that we need to know what's happening with uncle Ted? Maybe it made you feel some what good that he got covid and had a some what hard time with it? I mean after all he has a different view Point on it then you.

It seems like no ones opinions on medical matters mean anything to anyone--unless they are the same as what you believe. It isn't just medical matters, it is pretty much everything--human nature. Tom Couldn't agree with you more

I read the article and see no change on his stance. I have a fairly decent ability to comprehend. I would argue, if he called people sheep, he still views them as sheep. Sheep are followers without regard to consideration. Read into it what you want, but if you follow others telling you what to do without thinking for yourself- you are sheep. If you are fearful of a virus, I would wear a fitted respirator designed for keeping virus sized particles out. I am not. I am not living in a spirit of fear. If I get sick, I get sick. My trust is completely in the Lord. I know I am fearfully and wonderfully made and by His stripes I was/am healed. Again, for me death has no sting. I choose to not live in fear and would like others to have the choice how to live their lives without imposing their fear on me and my family. Very simple.

Tom Couldn't agree with you more Problem is when opinions are asserted that have no basis in facts but in emotion, you can't have a meaningful debate.

It seems like no ones opinions on medical matters mean anything to anyone--unless they are the same as what you believe. It isn't just medical matters, it is pretty much everything--human nature. Tom Yep, exactly right about that. Pandemics, politics, religion, trapping, etc. The problem I see with this pandemic is that nobody actually knows enough about it to know anything about it. It's only been in existence for a year so the scientific world has little baseline on it. And for those that should be in the know, like the previously mentioned scientist from Stanford, who's to say that he's not being influenced or pressured by one political party or another. Follow the dollar, there are always strings attached somewhere. That being said, we are left to make our own opinions based on our own anecdotal experiences. I'm required to wear a mask every minute that I'm at work as an elementary school teacher. I can't say one way or another if wearing a mask has or hasn't done anything to curb Covid but I can with certainty say that all of the precautions that our school has done with quarantining, mask wearing, and classroom sanitation has resulted in much, much fewer other sicknesses than in previous years. Ever since I've been a teacher, for over a decade, the flu season hits hard between December and March. No flu season this year. It's the first year in all of my years teaching that I personally haven't been sick. My three kids never got a cold or flu all winter which has never happened before. So, say what you want about masks, quarantining, and other precautions related to Covid. I have no idea if any of them have made a difference. I will say with certainty, however, that there have been some silver linings that have come out of all of this. Maybe we've learned something more about the flu or how to keep our society, schools, etc., safer for people.

Careful, Tom! No matter how much you have done to promote trapping, some of your fellow "trappers" on here are about to call you a sheep. Take that, and them, for what they are worth...to you...in your decision to wear a mask.
Still with ya!
Moosetrot Well said MT! I don't get on here nearly as much as I used to but at a glance I can see things have changed. In the "Old Days" everyone was entitled to their opinion. We were also taught that if you didn't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

I send my daughter to a private school (not rich, it's a real struggle making it work) that did not do masks or distancing the entire school year, they simply took the students temperatures as they came in (they're not even doing that now) . . they have had no issues whatsoever; oh sure there's been a few colds here and there but that's the extent of it . . that's my first-hand experience with it

Yep, same with Florida's results...there are people at risk and its a small percentage of people who need the extra precautions.

Hope all's well with you and the misses Tom. I understand you being cautious as I told ya early on, especially about wearing a mask during every flu season if yuns are at risk.
It will help as much for that as it does for this and my wife having worked at nursing homes her entire career she's seen her share of the flu killing the at risk. Do your thing!
What I'm against is officials killing the country when for the majority of the country, this is no worse than catching the flu.

It seems that with COVID, we had to construct a parachute while on the way down. In that scenario, mistakes and misjudgements will be made, but we all have our right to make personal decisions. Unfortunately that also results in unwarranted name-calling and other schoolyard antics. Moosetrot
