    Neighbor tested +, has symptoms

    Neighbor is a Fireman. Said one guy came to work knowing he was sick and got everyone at his station testing + and 2 other stations he filled in for at night all those guys are also + with most having "symptoms".

    Neighbor says he has a dry cough and is fatigued. His wife is a nurse so she can't go to work per protocols of coming into contact with a + person.

    He was at his mail box and I was in my garage just "waving hi" when he told me. He was not wearing a mask but I was at least 30' away and his wife screams to him from inside their house "put on a mask"

    Sucks one person who was sick FU so many peoples lives and some of those people may have significant consequences. Neighbor is in great shape but not a kid anymore. He is just a few months from retirement. Hope he gets through it ok like the majority of people do.

    It just make me think when I go our for whatever and put on a mask to go in stores who else is actually sick but does not give a F about anyone else

    I see tons of people wandering around stores with the mask below their nose. I don’t say anything, I just avoid. The Dems blame Trump for whatever the infected / death toll is, but the truth is a huge percentage of our ill comes from people just not caring, or even infecting on purpose. Americans are selfish and entitled.

      That's how it works. I work at a hospital and the hospital does just enough to cover their *** to "screen people". But in all reality, if someone was sick and needs money, they're not going to stop at the screening station and tell them "yes I have a cough, please excuse me from work today even though I might miss my rent payment." No, they're try and slide into work unoticed because thats what we humans do.
      F**k the boating accident. If it's time for a "boating accident" it's time to start F'n shootin.

        That's because healthy people wearing masks do not prevent anything.

        Sick people shouldn't be out at all.

          Get at least one of the Chinese N95's that are called KN95. It's the minimum that provides you some protection. If I'm going to wear a mask, I want one that will at least provide a little protection for me. Some protection is better than none at all.

          The T shirt fabric ones are worthless at giving the wearer any protection at all. They do still help the "other guy" though.

            Good luck to all that test positive. The friends and relatives of 216,125 dead Americans can attest the Covid-19 is no joke.

              We get it. You want everyone to wear masks and you’re scared. There’s a whole sub forum that is right up your alley.

                Which is the dirty little secret the media won't tell. You wouldn't (well. you probably would) believe how many people I talk to that believe the mask will protect THEM! Same with the 6' thing. It's always been 6' OR mask; not both. I used to have to deal with that at work with the 2-dimensional thinkers in a 3-dimensional world. Separation was 1000' OR 3 miles, not both.

                  Let it run its course and those who are at high risk, mask up and isolate. I had it, was tired for a few days, then done. It didnt rule my life before, and its not running my life now.

                    Here's how the professionals protect themselves. They tell me a mask will protect me and others.

                      This is a point that Matt Walsh from the Daily Wire has been beating home for a while. Not only is there evidence that says masks don't really stop the spread of virulent injections, but they would have to be worn 100% correctly and if you look around it's pretty obvious that 99%+ of people aren't wearing the correctly, washing them correctly, changing them when needed, etc.

                      It's essentially futility at this point.

                      But man, I'd be furious at my co-worker for knowingly coming to work sick. Especially in a FD!! Those are critical workers and they get tons of sick time. That's a BS move.

                        ..ah no....it's about some dumb ahole who came to work infecting others that is BS and now many peoples lives are affected, some potentially severe. Go post your wrong BS assumptions somewhere else

                        It is not a post of wear or not wear masks, its about people not caring about other people if they know they are sick

                          Were there 216,125 autopsies to determine the exact cause of death? If not, how were these categorized as deaths caused by the Wuhan virus?
