Coronavirus

[Hoddle is a god]

So worn properly, and in conjuction with hand washing and social distancing, masks can be effective in reducing transmission then ?

There’s no conclusive evidence for that.

There’s no conclusive evidence for that.

Apart from the findings from Stanford University like.

 

[CFC: Champs £launderx17]

Stanford University along with the Centre for disease control have concluded that worn properly, face coverings can reduce the transmission rate, especially amongst asymtomatic population, who would otherwise not know that they are shedding the virus. They also backed up their findings by citing the reduction in transmission rates in countries where mask wearing was introduced early.

But don't worry, HIAG is about to blow that theory out of the water with Mystic Smeg's youtube video on why masks are a precursor for the new world order wanting to microchip everybody.

Or the fact that people have been using masks for centuries in disease and medicine

It’s to help protect the patient against bacteria, not against viruses.

Also, the surgeon wears a face mask in a sterile setting, and in conjunction with other safety measures.

Also, a surgeon will change his mask, gloves and gown, and wash his hands several times during the day, and each time he sees a different patient.

The wearing of a ****ty mask in ordinary day circumstances without any other precautions being taken is going to do absolutely nothing good, and will cause more harm than good.

you are so ****ing stupid, even i'm not gonna argue...

You ignorant ****....Does the examples you have given above not even stir a though, that they maybe a wise move?

He is that alternative

 

[Libby]

There’s no conclusive evidence for that.

What's your evidence for it making things worse out of interest? Are you talking just that people will be more slack elsewhere and/or not use them correctly or are you saying that they themselves make it worse?

fatboy slim?

fatboy slim?

They are now.

They are now.

without the fatboy

 

[Tobes]

There’s no conclusive evidence for that.

Even if that was true, so what?

It’s an airborne viral infection and if wearing a mask in a shop only might reduce the chances of either you contracting it or of you passing it on, then where is the issue with just following the guidance for a few minutes in the enclosed environment of a shop?

You can’t enter a hospital without a mask, are you saying you’d refuse to enter one of those as well, on the basis of your ‘freedom’?

That is not conclusive evidence that face masks do anything to prevent the spread of viruses in outdoor every day life.

This is the question that I was trying to ask him. Worn properly and in conjunction with other measures like hand washing and social distancing. Face masks definitely do reduce the transmission rate.

The problems come from people not doing that, wearing old masks again and again, touching their faces etc. But that is about human behaviour, not the efficacy of face masks.

 

[PINKIE]

That is not conclusive evidence that face masks do anything to prevent the spread of viruses in outdoor every day life.

We're not talking about outdoors. The Govt mandate is for them to be worn inside in shops.

That's the type of every day experience I am talking about.

 

[PINKIE]

Well then you're making another non argument.

The issue here is about face masks being worn in shops.

 

[Tobes]

But there is no evidence that it does anything but potential harm.

That’s simply not true though.

Oh and you avoided my actual point.

 

[Commachio]

That is not conclusive evidence that face masks do anything to prevent the spread of viruses in outdoor every day life.

Does the fact that Thailand, roughly the same population as the uk, had under a 100 deaths not speak volumes?

most SE Asia had very few... a combo of lockdown and masks ffs...

why are you afraid of protecting yourself, and adamant to disregard goverments rules?

it's no big thing. you sit indoors anyway you fat useless ****.
