Chicago Mayor Lightfoot violates mask mandate

Not really. For that to be true there would have to be a gain concerning the control. There isn't. Trump did not gain anything when he said to wear a mask if you can't social distance. Biden doesn't gain anything by telling you to wear two masks.

 

They are selfish baby killers. Abortion is a DNC platform.

But no, wearing masks is a medical issue that both political parties have decided to make political.

Until covid you would be considered an idiot to claim masks provide no protection from viruses. And until covid you would have been considered an idiot to claim people needed to wear masks even when not in close contact with infected people.

 

No. That actually was not what Dr. Fauci said. But I do think there is more about politics to him. He was a Reagan guy, after all. (What Faucibsaid was the typical masks bought ay drug stores were not very effective protecting against viruses).

Let me ask you - we know that P95 masks provide a protection rating of 10 PF against alpha particles (which is not good.....but it is better than nothing).

Now, if these masks provide at least some protection against alpha particles (3.6 fermi) how do they provide absolutely no protection against a covid virus which is 1000000000 times larger?

 

I also heard him. I know what he said about the drug store masks.

I am asking you if it makes sense to you that P95 masks provide some (not much) protection against particles that are 3.6 fermi but absolutely no protection against a virus that is 1000000000 times larger.

 

Let me ask another way, @canadyjd .....

P95 masks are at least (minimum) 95% effective at stopping particles from .1 to .3 microns. The virus itself is 0.125 microns. But the virus does not travel alone (viruses travel in aerosol droplets).

And while not very effective they do provide protection (10PF) against alpha particles which are much smaller.

Do how does these masks not provide at least some protection against viruses?

 

Funny....I had thought the same about you from time to time.

I do not believe the DNC thinks things through. You may agree with Fauci. That's your business.

But I will ask you -

P95 masks provide a protection level of PF10 against alpha particles. Not very good....but some protection.

P95 masks filter 95% of particles .1 to .3 microns. The covid virus is .125 microns not counting suspension.

How can P95 masks not provide any protection against viruses?

 

Why is it you guys believe Fauci when it suits you?

Why don't you explain how P95 masks filter 95% of particles .1 to .3 microns, provide a 10 PF protection against alpha particles, yet can have absolutely no protection against .125 micron particles suspended in aerosol droplets?

 

I am trying to get what you ate saying, but it does not make sense to me.

Why do you think that a .125 micron virus (just one particle) in suspension would not be stopped by a mask that filters 95% of particles .1 to .3 microns?

How can these masks provide at least some protection against alpha particles (PF10) but absolutely none against particles even larger?

That does not even make sense. Even if the P95 masks were not 95% against .125 particles they would provide some protection.

 

Driving to work this morning I was thinking about how to explain to an adult what was common knowledge just a few years ago. I love you, brother, but I also think you are rejecting what you know to be true as you are a bit "over influenced" by the anti-science liberals.

I think I know how to explain this to you. Rather than focusing on radioactivity and the fact P95 masks provide some radcon protection let's look at a more elementary school explanation.

We know respiratory viruses are in the bodies of effected people. They spread through droplets when people talk, caugh, sneeze, yawn, etc.

The anti-covid-vaxers will say a mask cannot stop a water molecule because of its size. Get a hot cup of coffee. Put a mask on top. The anti-covid-vaxers believe the mask will have no effect and the steam will pass through unimpeded. But you can see for yourself they are wrong. Some steam (depending on the amount) may pass through but a lot of the moisture will be in the mask.

Now get a mirror or a pair of glasses. Breath on it. What you see is moisture. Get a piece of cloth. Breathe through it for a few minutes. Doyou feel the warmth on tge cloth? Put it against your cheek. Can you feel the mixture.

This moisture is what we call "droplets". When we exhale (breathe out) we exhale moist air (we "breathe out droplets").

As you have seen, these droplets can be stopped by a mask.

What, you may ask, does this have to do with viruses?

Respiratory viruses are spread through these droplets when a person is infected by a respiratory virus. We do not just exhale separate water molecules, bacteria, viruses, etc. We exhale droplets which contain (are made up or composed) these things.

If you stop the droplets you stop the virus, bacteria, etc that are in the droplets.

Does that help you understand?

 

So e of what I said was for you to figure out (like radiation vs contamination).

I did not mean to speak to you as a child, I just didn't know of another way to explain it to you.

Two concrete barriers set 3 people apart may not stop a person but it will stop a vehicle containing people.

Viruses are not just floating out of people. They are in a type of suspension (like saliva, sweat, mucus, etc.).

You can deny that masks stop these droplets, but I belueve everybody (including you) knows better.

You can deny that stopping droplets containing viruses is a protective measure, but again I think everybody (including you) knows better.
