Do you think wal mart greeters are going to stop you? I personally wear them when business require them but have seen multiple times people walk right on by the greeters as they are trying to tell them to put on a mask.

I think this is purposeful by large corporations. I think the directive is to require them but also accompanied by a directive to not confront people that dont.

At the Walmart i shop at 30-40 percent of the shoppers wear a mask and that's probably as high as the amount of mask wearers gets.

Do you see the irony in throwing out a percentage with only observational data while condemning such things?

I didnt see a scientific breakdown tying mask wearing to Trump. It was just as much supposition to start as his observation was.

Frankly, that's a stupid publicity stunt. The problem is not outdoor activities, especially if you're keeping social distance. But none of that changes whether he's reporting accurate numbers or not.

A local infectious medicine doctor said yesterday on Nashille radio if Trump had put uniform federal corona virus rules in place from the beginning, we would already be out of this mess. Since there are none, states and localities have been free to do what they want.

Universal rules make no sense. None what so ever.

It makes no sense to treat Anywhereville USA to NYC at the height of the crisis.

The German government made universal rules and Germany appears to be in great shape now. First of all, we needed coordinated supply acquisition and testing. We should have still been on mandatory masks. Unfortunately, little hands Donny abdicated his authority out of concern for being re-elected.

At some point it may become necessary no? I mean if you were Trump, how long would let the state officials continue to let their states and cities degrade before you step in?

No it's not. It's not the feds job to baby sit people or local governments.


It's the people's job to vote for responsible individuals who can actually lead, instead of following.

Sad thing is no changes will be made.

Heh. Oh, really?

Questions for you then:

(1) Does contracting CV-19 confer future immunity to it? If yes, for how long?;
(2) Does CV-19 cause any LT effects on those who survive infection? Asymptomatic patients?;
(3) Is herd immunity possible?;
(4) Are we really "close to a vaccine" if it hasn't even entered Phase 3 clinical trials (Moderna's candidate);
(5) How many vaccines (or any products, for that matter) has Moderna had approved by the FDA to date?;
(6) If a company does pass its Phase 3 trials for a vaccine, when would widespread inoculation be available in the US?; and
(7) What percentage of Americans have indicated they do NOT intend to take a vaccine, even if one becomes available? How might that affect the pandemic?

This is dumb, but I will play along.


1. We'll never know with 100% certainty
2. We'll never know with 100% certainty
3. We'll never know with 100% certainty
4. Shutting down until a vaccine is available isn't an option
5. Shutting down until a vaccine is available isn't an option
6. Shutting down until a vaccine is available isn't an option
7. We'll never know with 100% certainty


You know what we do know with 100% certainty? The testing and statistics to date, are wrong. Period.

What we do know with more certainty than your questions are this:

This affects primarily older and sick people. It's lethality is highly dependent on the patient and we know what those factors are. Younger healthy people tend to be fine.
