What exactly do people have against wearing masks? I could wear one for the rest of my life

Is it really that hard??

Yes. Decreases oxygen intake plus you breathe back in all you just exhaled. Most likely your blood will not be oxygenated enough. Low oxygen may cause cancer. Ineffective against any viruses and more. Whats the point just because your TV said so?

@Nobody00 Not to get into too much of a dispute, but the actual science does not support you claim of mask lowerring your oxygen saturation. There has been a couple of scientifcall-based studies showing there may be a inconsequential drop, as like from 100% O2 saturation to 97%.

@Nobody00 Masks decreasing oxygen intake is a myth that has already been debunked. A nurse and a doctor demonstrated that they were able to receive the same level of oxygen with or without a mask. The point is to just be safe anyway

@StarletPea so if you already decided on all your “answers” ....why ask this question?

@samueltyler2 I doubt the "demonstration" was taken for long term mask wearing. It was probably structured and performed in a small amount of time, minus the subject moving around a lot. Common sense says our air ways are made to be open and breathing freely..

@Magenta Actually hey even did the study with subjects who have chronic pulmonary disease. There was no significant change. The studies did not last 8 hiurs, but, in all honesty, no one would suggest anyone wear the same mask for that long anyway. When I worked in the ER I wore masks almost sonsistently for my entire shift.

@Nobody00 The obsessive fearmongering is mind boggling. As if it's the only illness the world has ever suffered or IS suffering daily.

Fearmongering @Magenta is based on the financial gain the “experts” on TV are looking to obtain. They are not independent experts , biased and pushing it toward that side that will benefit them. CDC is invested in vaccines. Gates said that this Covid mRNA injection will bring him 20x return on what he invested in it. I listen to experts that don’t gain a penny whether I wear a mask or not. That is why they are not on TV telling their independent side of the story. I even heard someone say “if it was true it would be on the news”.Fauci , CDC (Centers for Disease Creation) , Gates are marketing and selling this bio product that is still in trials till 2023 and all these people taking it are nothing but are lab rats. Other independent experts say that most vaccines even old fashioned have never been tested. Also constant mask wearing and breathing back your own bacteria plus moisture and CO2 may and have caused bacterial pneumonia for many already. Some people here just post so they have something to argue about.

@samueltyler2 says CNN?
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Nobody00 no, says me after a critical review of the literature published in medical journals since 2009. You can go onto Google Scholar and read the research if you care to.
Nobody00 · F
Google is censoring everything right now that differs from that narrative spread by the rest of social media FB Youtube Twtr etc and only pushes what the CDC says “fact” checked by paid “fact” checkers. Months ago info leaked and other doctors complained that some Covid cases are misdiagnosed, people are suing over their loved ones death certificates , the deaths numbers were @samueltyler2 manipulated has also been admitted by CDC. If you have any other sources besides Google sponsored articles, I will read otherwise I’m done with this; but nothing financed by any third parties that are invested in all of this propaganda. They are biased. Have a good day for now and PM any sources you want to share.

@Nobody00 what do you not understand about using Google Scholarto sesrch for articles? If I did the search for you, you will say I was biased. If you don't like that search engine, choose another. You can try PubMed as well. I give up you are unwilling to listen to anything that might suggest that some of the politics divide what should be simple science. For over 150 years people in medical delivery have warn masks and saved lives, since HIV came along we have practiced "universal protection," to protect ourselves. So, the usefulness has been proven by BOTH experience and research.

@samueltyler2 Actually, my mother was a devoted masker ...Last month started feeling sick fever her oxygen went down to 70 she passed out my brother started running out in panic screaming covid covid covid covid rushed her to the ER. there she TOLD them everything that has happened to her . Immediately they tested her positive for covid she was ready to die freaking out, crying...Over night they did other tests, Xrays etc Next day Discharged with pneumonia on loads of antibiotics. Day four— I call her , she sounds like nothing happened cause antibiotics worked. Worked for Covid??? Antibiotics? Wasn’t she “positive” for covid just four days ago? Things just don’t add up anymore...to many people by now. I’m shocked to see that some naive people are still glued to their TV s , believing every single word and blindly obeying, still not asking any questions. Do y’all actually believe that Bill Gates , after openly saying on TV that he wants to reduce population with vaccines, is working so hard to save your lives, please. Do you think that Fauci actually gives a damn about some John Doe out there....Do you ? Really?

@samueltyler2 I think you might still be very far from seeing or understanding what this is all about. Some day. I hope. Bye

@Nobody00 good luck to you. Please consider protecting yourself and your loved ones.

@Nobody00 Then why do doctors wear masks? You must have gotten your medical degree from Trump University.
Nobody00 · F
No, from Bill Gates medical school @LeopoldBloom
@Nobody00 Next time you have surgery, please tell the surgeon that he doesn't have to wear a mask because you don't want his oxygen intake during the operation to be compromised.

I never cease to be amazed at the level of stupidity coming from conservatives.
Nobody00 · F
@LeopoldBloom SURGEONS ARE A DIFFERENT STORY. DO YOUR RESEARCH and not with google.
@Nobody00 Surgeons wear masks to keep from infecting their patients. It's the same reason people are wearing masks now. I did do my research, dumbass. Please post a credible source that explains why it's a good idea for surgeons to wear masks but not anyone else.
Nobody00 · F
Some mask info here @LeopoldBloom

And I swear to God this is the last time I am posting link for anyone. SO DONE WITH THAT.


If you don’t like the post, scroll by. I am not spending hours arguing or trying to prove anything. Have more important things to do . Have a great day and breathe in as much fresh air as you can. Take care
@Nobody00 I never said cloth masks were as effective as medical masks. You didn't differentiate; you gave some bullshit response about "masks" in general decreasing oxygen intake and causing cancer. I guess you won't post a link supporting that, but don't worry, I can navigate to the Alex Jones site myself.

So based on the link [b]you[/b] posted, can I conclude that you agree that people should wear medical masks to stop COVID from spreading?
