There was the credible study recently, that clearly showed masks work.
The General Covid19 Thread
Not sure what we could’ve done. Seems Covid would’ve had its way with us irrespective of lockdowns, masks, etc. SF was early on shutting things down, people were good about masks, and our vaccination rate is around 82%. Still ended up with 50K cases and 600 deaths. Could’ve been worse and mitigation efforts certainly helped, but the idea that we could’ve gotten through this in a few months with stricter measures….I dunno. Covid is a bastard.
I just got back from my first post pandemic domestic air travel experience. Harrowing to say the least. International air travel sounds very safe, however domestic flying was atrocious. Outside of mandatory masking, there are absolutely no restrictions. No temp checks, no proof of vaccination, and no proof of clear test. The quality of masking really came down to our stewardesses. On one flight a dude so much a showed his nose, and he was told he would be placed on a no fly list if it happened again. However, the next flight had everyone wearing chin diapers with absolutely no push back. My last flight had a tandem of whales both of whom 1000% had COVID. They were blasting dry painful coughs the whole way. Based on our departing flights, we chose to upgrade to the pathetic first class section, in order to distance ourselves from the MAGA chuds. Was undeniably worth it. Doesn’t protect you from standing in line for TSA with adults pulling suitcases shaped like R2D2, but it does get you off the fucking plane asap, with a thimble of booze in you, without having to further cavort with the hoopleheads.

Fucking lol!
So a question for the board… you walk into a coffee shop… in the U.K. it’s not a legal requirement to be wearing one…70-80% of people have masks on… 20-30% don’t. What do you think of the 20-30% without masks?
I feel sorry for them.
Clearly ignoramuses.

If they were drinking their coffee at the time they get a pass. Doing that through a mask would be a challenge
