Who is going to enforce this and what is the consequences of saying screw you!

Edit: Who is going to determine which mask is the one to stop the rona when worn by a mandate?
I'll report back on that because thats exactly what I'm going to do when OKC passes a mandate tomorrow.
I may say it with more tact though lol

It's a far stretch though. Covid can become TB, MERS, SARS, and the like. Present, but rare and confined. At the moment it's widespread, but if people worldwide can put aside their precious politics and selfish egos, it might fall into the rare category.

It’s not though. Give an inch...

The “widespread” nature of this is questionable given the faulty data being reported and the lack of detail concerning those being actually hospitalized for COVID as compared to being hospitalized for many other issues and coincidentally testing positive as well.

Not to mention this all surged to the front page once the protests and rioting took a break.

Nah, this surged to the front when China hid the outbreak of a virus to hide culpability in creating it. They told Russia and North Korea to close their borders long before they told the world they created a super-flu.

WHO towed the line for China to secure future finding from their largest benefactor.

We made memes and poked fun at China not being able to contain the virus the a very densely packed city of Wuhan as it spread. Then to the middle East. Europe. Australia. And when it stood on the doorstep of America, our elected douches were too busy playing politics trying to take down a commander and chief that played it off as a hoax. By the time the full realization of its reach was discovered, the only option was to fight it the only way proven to do so, social distancing... but we, the citizens, could only take that acceptance for a few weeks. It wasn't spreading in our solitude, so obviously it wasn't as big a threat as they said.

Then through the power of ego, people put smartass comments on social media. The gullible latched on to the sentiment and believed it to the core.

"They said up to 200,000 deaths, and only 30,000 have died. Boy are they stupid"

People grew tired, bored, and angry. Protests by both the right and left were the new thing in pop culture. Political rallies, college covid parties, big b-day parties, a total relaxation of common sense, and we'venow added over 100,000 deaths to the American toll quickly on our way to proving the stupid experts correct in terms of what they said in March.

Nobody is innocent in where we are now. We didn't create it, we didn't stop it, we've earned whatever the politicians force on us now.

For all our mask-skeptical friends, here is research on the effectiveness of various mask types at stopping the spread of aerosol droplets (<5 microns). Source: go to 11:30 in . The original research is published in Physics of Fluids.
Distance a cough will expel aerosols:
No mask 8 feet
Bandana 3.5 feet
Folded Cotton Handkerchief 1 foot 3 inches
Surgical Masks 8 inches
