    That's the same question the maskers asked a few months ago, seems they refuse to speak the truth about masks and that is they expect people to wear them forever.

    That one is crap, single element filtration, which does nothing to protect the wearer and by design provides zero protection to others, should the wearer be infected.

    The 3M respirator has a fiber pre-filter, two layers of electrostatic filtration and a carbon gas trap, it can actually trap a virus protecting the wearer (me) whereas that other one is 100% virtue signalling and 0% protection for the wearer and those around the wearer.

    And that is a major problem with masks, people have no clue as to how they work or don't work, they wear them to show off how much they care about others, or think they are protecting themselves, something masks are not designed to do and cannot do.

    Using a mask like the one you posted is akin to using a chain link fence to keep mosquitoes out of your yard.

    Rationig to meet budget constraints. The published US life expectancy is bogus.

    Is there no unfavourable stat that you won't call fake news?
    Wiki has rankings from 6 different organisations and the UK leads the US on life expectancy in every single one of them.
    At half the price to the consumer.

    It is fake news because crime and highway accidents skew the US figure down. Take those out and the US ranks very high.

    So you don't deny that you were told what to think, only try to insult those who call you out on them.

    Saw something today, "don't argue with those who believe their own lies". Seems appropriate with you.

    Who told me what to think? Of course "Her daughter, Carol Huben — a registered Republican, according to voting records — is listed as residing at the same address as her late mother." must mean that the daughter didn't use her dead mother's ballot to vote for Trump

    I did, you should now. It makes the case there are no observable or measurable benefits to wearing a mask.

    Because he "found" exactly what he was told and paid to find. Prove that statement wrong.

    No proof of that and you know it.

    Just because that is the type of thing that you democrats do does not mean that your lies are true.

    Life is full of risk. Let's see I have to go to the doctor tomorrow. Now there is a risk I will be in a car wreck and die during the trip. So I could cancel and take the risk of being sick. Well since there is very little risk I will be in the car wreck...............

    There was the initial OH no one can fly because that puts you in a confined tube with other people. But as this study shows that's a false conclusion and following proper protocols flying produces very little risk that you would contract COVID and especially if you just leave the overhead vent open and blowing on you, that's filtered air and will keep an viruses from getting to you.

    Sure, they would be better off with this...

    .... but good luck getting people to wear them if they could even find one.

    The mask has been tested and is comparable to an N95 respirator.
    I didn't figure you for someone who would pass along misinformation. Live and learn.

    Dunno about that. China has officially eradicated poverty for the first time in its 4000 year history; its citizens are very pleased with this situation and mostly support their government. (90%+ approval according to a recent Harvard poll).


    Dunno about that. "You are living in poverty, your neighborhoods are like war zones....." (DJ Trump on the inner city ghettos).

    Doesn't sound like much of either freedom or prosperity there...

    Poor old Friedman, just another dummy who couldn't work out how to deal with the stagflation in the 70's...
