AUSTRIA has made MASKS mandatory! | |

It is a testament to the incompetence of the CDC that they aren't directing people to make home made masks and making them mandatory. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76445806 United States 03/30/2020 03:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | so stupid it took this long for some nations to start requiring masks video at that link ... nations where exponential spread stopped early are the ones that adopted policy of everyone wears a mask in public the explanations as to why WE don't are self-contradictory health care workers DO wear masks, and I'm not talking N95 but surgical masks or even less, they will wear homemade masks if thats all they have so its not because they're not effective they say, well, we don't have enough masks couldn't we make MORE ? they say, people don't wear them properly, if they touch their mask, I guess, while wearing it, that could increase the spread can't we tell people not to do that ? aren't most people able to take heed of instructions and warnings and learn to use their face mask properly ? I just don't get it ... its some kind of pathological elitism, they want to believe only highly trained professionals with MD or PhD can wear a face mask I guess |

Butters User ID: 78707970 United States 03/30/2020 03:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think masks would definitely help stop the spread. I think the only reason they are saying they don't work is because they are in such short supply. Officials don't want people buying them so they are available for hospitals. I get that hospitals need them, but maybe if people wore them more, there wouldn't be as many sick people? It makes sense to me, but I'm certainly no expert.

User ID: 78674794 Hungary 03/30/2020 03:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As I understand the masks do 3 things: Quoting: Elihua 1. Prevent infected people from spewing their virus. 2. Help remind people not to touch their face. 3. Possibly prevent inhalation of virus from air. 4. Keep reminding people to be scared shitless here, fixed that for you :) so, are you saying that you think masks are only to scare people and not to prevent spread? have I deleted points 1-3? :) |

[link to nypost.com (secure)] i'm continuing to see the english articles say only supermarket, but all the german ones say that it is in public. here is one from google translate [link to www.20min.ch (secure)] Fingers crossed the person handing out masks is covid free.

Universal mask-wearing is the most overlooked COVID-19 lifesaver Western countries are experiencing higher rates of COVID-19 infections compared to Asian countries because of the West's aversion to wearing masks. We need universal mask-wearing to aid in lowering COVID-19's virality. [link to www.maskssavelives.org (secure)] [link to youtu.be (secure)] |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 14633252 Canada 03/30/2020 05:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | so stupid it took this long for some nations to start requiring masks Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76445806 It would have been stupid if they had billions of masks laying around somewhere. Governments have been downplaying the usefulness of masks because their embarrassed how ill prepared they were for this on the one hand, and they need to give the masks that they actually have to medical professionals on the other. It's stupid to have a mandatory mask policy when there's only enough masks for 5% of the population, and essentials are selling out on the internet. Do you see why that would be catastrophically stupid? |

Quoting: JJ Johns many have suspected they do in fact help, and why wouldn't they... in the german articles on this, it is saying that this is meant to prevent people from spreading it. so, they mean normal surgical masks and not an N95 mask, it seems Of course masks help, if you mistakenly touch your nose, you touch your mask instaed, but when you get home you need to get rid of the mask a halfa minute in microwave should suffice. |
