You're talking about symptomatic spread, which I don't dispute masks probably help. I'm talking about masking up if you do not exhibit any symptoms, regardless if you've got the jab or not.

But a general rule has to be applied, surely?

If masks prevent symptomatic spread, then it makes sense that everyone who has symptoms should have to wear a mask.

So how to best ensure that everyone with symptoms wears a mask?

A) Make everyone wear masks. Simple. And despite the vociferous objections from certain quarters, there is almost zero inconvenience. It's the obvious answer.

B) Tell people that you should wear a mask if you have symptoms. Result: some people with symptoms wear masks. Other people with symptoms see the request as (and I have no idea why) some sort of outrageous imposition on their human rights, and don't wear a mask, claiming not to have symptoms. Other people with symptoms don't wear a mask because "it's just a cough, it's not Covid", etc.

Option A is clearly preferable. Same reason that motorways have a speed limit. The blanket rule ensures optimum safety. Professional racing drivers would probably still be capable of driving safely at much higher speeds... but this isn't a reason to abandon the speed limit and ask people to drive at whatever speed they find comfortable.

Since when is lying a good public health strategy? Be clear, be honest. Bureaucrats have been telling people that "the science" says masks help reduce Covid transmission, they make no distinction between symptomatic and asymptomatic people.

If you're vaccinated, there is almost a zero percent chance you'll be symptomatic and have the ability to transmit the virus, so why mask up vaccinated individuals? It's ridiculous.

This is the Trump effect in action, where politicians will do a complete 180 given his position. We're at dementia levels of delusion when you tell people to start masking up 3 year olds. Orwellian type stuff, not rooted in any science, any logic, any rationality. I wish I was exaggerating.  I'm thinking that people associate masks with mental fortitude, so it just makes them more comfortable with their insecurities, so they push it on everyone else. I feel sorry for the hypochondriacs that are vaxxed and still masking, a very sad existence to live so fearfully.

The list doesn't make sense. If you "comply" with the vaccination, how would you stop complying further down the list?

Corona Viruses have been around for at least 90 years, and I have been around for 79 of them. This means that for everu day of my life I have been exposed to infection, and, apart from the usual childhood infections that built up my immune system, I haven't has any sickness other than a few overnight sicknesses. I don't take any pharmaceutical or recreational drugs, and I don't use any of the so-called health supplements. I've completely ignored the covid restrictions and recommendations, except when receiving a polite request to wear a mask when entering a supermarket. I am aware that every single one of the government guidelines id designed to increase the spread of the infection, reduce the natural immunity of the population, or to extend the period of infection in a person. Mask wearing is one example. All reserch shows that it has nbo measurable impact on the spread of infection, but it does give people a false sense of security.  The immune system has a variety of methods that it uses to dispose of infection and toxins, and these include exhalation of breath, urination and defecation. You don't need to be a brain surgeon to realise that reinhalation of exhaled toxins is similar to eating you infected excrement.

I have adopted a lifestyle that removes me fron most of the government restyrictions, but I an concerned about forced injection of poisons, and the so-called passports. I would like a cretifucate that states I am unvaccinated, and thus healthier than the pharma company slaves.

i would like to extend that number waaaaaay up.

corona viruses has been around for thousands and thousands of years, they are with us since ancient times and probably evolved with us since the dawn of time.

using corona viruses to scare the entire world is just a load of crap..."novel" my ass...it is/was raining novel/variants/mutations since corona viruses existed.

it is like seeing a new breed of dog evolved to another form of dog and the whole world goes ape shit LOL

People seemed all too willing in my opinion to give up their freedoms based on their government's wishes surrounding this Covid flu.  At what point would you as a citizen decide enough is enough and you are not willing to comply with their guidance any longer?  Maybe you were ok with masks, willing to get a shot, think others should before going outside, don't mind a 'jab' every 6 months, but don't think people should be jailed for not doing so...  I'd like to see the results of where you as a citizen would draw the line, and feel free to post comments about what you would do once that line is crossed by your government.

You are missing one answer in your poll and that is to always comply. I understand that people feel violated if the have to take the vaccine. But we need to think for other people, not only ourselves. I am fairly young and even if I would get the corona virus it would probably just be mild  symptoms. My grandmother however with 90 years is not going to have a mild corona infection. I don't want to risk getting her sick, that's why I got the vaccine.

C'mon man!  Do a real survey.  95% or more of the sheeple will NEVER stop complying no matter what is thrown at them.  That should be abundantly clear by now.

'Growning citizen pushback' is integral to the 'new normal' and 'great reset'.  The biggest problem the designers have is to how TO get people to resist.  In a funny way, it's probably the pliant masses who will cause the greatest hurdle to 'their plans'.  They overdid it on fluoride or something I guess.

This doesn't really make sense. They reduce transmission of the virus. Without masks, undoubtedly millions more people would have been infected, and thousands more would have died.

Hypothetically speaking:

If you're sick with the rona and you cough a giant loogie, and chunkies of it fly up your grandmother's nostrils and she catches the virus, its because neither of you are wearing masks.

I don't know what metric you're using to establish what "doing something" entails, but simply reducing transmission of virus-containing respiratory droplets definitely counts in my book.

You're talking about symptomatic spread, which I don't dispute masks probably help. I'm talking about masking up if you do not exhibit any symptoms, regardless if you've got the jab or not.

By the way, this is what most virologists were saying back in March -- that it it's useless for the general population to mask up unless you're actively exhibiting symptoms. The guidelines changed when there was speculation about asymptomatic spread, but even to this day, there isn't much evidence that asymptomatic/presymptomatic people act as chief vectors of transmission, there never was. And masks do not protect you from being infected with the virus, they only (allegedly) protect you from transmitting the virus, the CDC even acknowledges as much, and so does Dr. Facui. Masking only protects those around you, not yourself.

We have the data for children, 300 known cases of deaths from Covid of people under 18 in the US, and the data isn't clear what type of other conditions those children had, whether the had extreme obesity, whether they died *from* covid, or they died *with* covid, so on. EU, same story, less than one tenth of one percent of all Covid deaths are from children. You're talking about masking up 3 year olds with the new guidelines, they don't know how to use a mask and those masks will become germ traps. Is there *any* evidence at all which examines mask efficacy in reducing Covid spread in children? Doubt it.

Masks work if you're symptomatic and if you use them properly. For medical professionals, if you touch your mask, you need to replace it because you've now contaminated your hands with whatever is on your mask. Do we expect 3 year olds to not touch their mask? If you sweat in your mask, if you build up mucus and saliva in your mask, you need to replace it immediately because the efficacy goes down. Do we expect children to be able to do this?

The doctors know that children are extremely low risk of Covid, they know masks do nothing for children, and yet here we are.

Once a man, twice a child!
May be there's something political about the COVID19 pandemic in Africa that makes someone like me not believe it exists in that continent at all. I'm really nonchalant about the whole thing, honestly. How else do you restrict people and force them to wear masks and maintain COVID19 protocol in certain quarters and not in certain quarters? Take Nigeria for instance, banks, supermarkets, government offices and corporate organizations force one to observe those stuff but during political rallies and burials the guidelines aren't obeyed. It makes one wonder if there are certain areas the virus isn't permitted to move to. It's really hilarious.

I was okay with masks for about a week until I realize they do absolutely nothing for most people.

Everybody else, keep your panties on: most of you are literally at Stage 1 or Stage 0; you just don't realize it because its more exciting to pretend the government is after you.

I was okay with masks for about a week until I realize they do absolutely nothing for most people. I happened to see this headline today - https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/coronavirus/calls-for-renewed-mask-mandate-grow-as-delta-fuels-covid-surge-in-nyc-u-s/3161139

American pediatric association now recommends children, toddlers, above the age of 2 to begin masking up in school. There are something like 300 known cases in the entire US of those under 18 catching Covid and dying from it....there are 74 million minors in the US, so about 0.0004054054 percent of children have died from Covid. Child has a better chance of dying from literally anything else and yet they are masking up toddlers? Purely political, as with most things. No sense in complying with covid restrictions anymore. They aren't rooted in reality.
