These So Called Experts

[b]Think we are idiots![/b]

So they don’t want to call them “masks” but “face coverings,” 🤦‍♀️ In case we get the notion to wear surgical type masks, or we get mixed up with surgical masks. Then they are afraid, we won’t stay 6-feet apart, or wash our hands, if we wear face masks...I’m not kowtowing to their stupid political correctness. Honestly, we are treated like 5-year-olds by the task force, the CDC, and the corrupt WHO. 😡

If they are trying to get people to protect themselves and others, who cares? In reading posts on this site alone, it's frightening how ill-informed many people still are when it comes to transmission.

People need to quit expecting to be coddled and just take care of their shit so we all can be safe.

I would think those who have lost loved ones would care. I care, for one. They could have saved lives and suffering...because this disease causes great suffering when severe... if they had been up front in the beginning.

I used my own common sense from way back, and bought my masks before the sh*t hit the fan, having just recovered from the flu and bronchitis, at that time. I was taking no chances once I knew it was in this country. @TheFlippantSide
@Carissimi That's not what I meant. I mean, why get offended by public health officials' attempts to keep people safe? "Common sense" doesn't always cut the mustard. I'm in the medical field and constantly having to educate people on taking proper precautions, and I'm surprised at a lot of the misinformation I come across.

What I meant is...who cares about appeasing anyone's delicate sensibilities? People need to get over themselves and quit being so sensitive about things. It's not about you.
