  1. Q: Do t’rump supporters not wear masks because they don’t know how viruses are transmitted or because masks as a technology are too dang complex for them to grasp?
    A: Yes.

    1. Look on YouTube for DYI no sew masks using shop towels. All you need is shop towels, a stapler, rubber bands, tape and pipe cleaners. Double layer is better than single layer. I’ve read that, if fitted tightly, these have a very good filtering rate. I use double layer shop towel filters in the pocket of my cloth masks.

    2. @Elaniago , can’t be the Antichrist and not win the popular vote, lol
      Donald is WORSE than Lucifer, Satan and the devil put together, lol

    3. @just me
      The corporate beast system and all of lucifers kids prove Christ is real instantly proving you’re a fake news bimbo babbler. You be nipping on the devils sphincter lips is what i think. All them yrs I was a whipper snapper and u never met satan, huh, Pumpkin?
      You tell ol Sty the piggy wiggy to cram a dehydrated cucumber up his unholy keyster, hotrod, we’ll have your geritol when u come back

  2. Masks being mandated in UK Shops from July 24th, with £100 on-the-spot fines being issued by Police for people refusing to wear a Mask in a Shop.

    1. Leroy, Only the dumbest people would demand that the government tell you how to live and enforce it!

    2. If we had a real “President “Without his GOP enablers we would be in a better place Months Ago !

    3. @Dementia Joe Fingers – you need some love, you sound so angry. I bet you turn it down when the government offers to help you.

  3. I have stopped opening my mail.
    Since then, i have become healed from debt..
    I no longer have any bills to pay…life is great

    1. I got bitten by a rabid fox this afternoon, but I don’t want my county’s rabies statistics to look bad. I’m just gonna ignore it.

    2. LX, Corn Pop was a bad dude and he ran with some bad boys! So I cut off 6 feet of chain that divided the Deep end of the pool and I told Corn Pop you might cut me but I will wrap this chain around your head! I told Corn Pop I was sorry I called him Ester Williams and he left!

    3. @Kittykitty Katt Kids used to rub my hairy legs and watch the hair stand back up, kids would jump on my lap and I learned about roaches! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🐕🐕🦧

  4. KNOS ticker Kronos makes air filtration systems
    New data is showing that Coronavirus is much more airborne than first suspected. State of the art filtration for commercial and residential use. Kills viruses and bacteria in the air.
    This company is producing top of line filtration units. This company will help save lives.

  5. Rethuglicans are facilitating the spread of C19 to keep us sick and dying so as to cancel the vote. Think an authoritarian take over couldn’t happen here? It is happening now.

    1. @Billkwando How about New York and California? Son please think before you comment! 🤣🐕🐕🐕

    2. @bingo_fuel You are scaring the snowflakes you know Democrats are sensitive, now I think you should apologize so that boy can come out from under the bed.

    3. @King Schultz i’m not “afraid” to wear a mask LOL it’s about freedom to choose. in both those examples you gave it was people _protesting_ orders by the government that restrict _freedoms_ 🤦‍♂️ i couldn’t care less who wears a mask, i wear one so i can still go shopping, but if anything it’s you who is afraid of other people having the right to choose because they might choose something you don’t agree with lol. see how that works?

    4. @King Schultz Shut up Corn Pop if I capitalized all my letters you know you will hide under your bed! Don’t make me do it!

  6. Les masques ne vous protègent pas, ils protègent les gens en face de vous, en plus gardé la distance entre vous et les personnes qui vous entourent, lavé vous les mains, désinfecté les, quand vous devez aller par ex. Super Market, éternué dans votre coude, les autres personnes doivent également porter leurs masque alors il vous protègent. C’est tellement simple, ne fait pas mal et montre votre empathies pour vos concitoyens. Si vous respecter ces quelques petites règles, les infections vont baisé dans les 3/4 semaines etvous aurez participer à sauvé la vie de vos proches, amis, voisins.Hé les Rép. pas porté de masque n’est pas un signe de liberté mais de stupidité

    1. Herd immunity requires 70% of the nation to be infected, currently only 1% has been infected.
      Now imagine what the hospitals would look like with 70 times more patients let alone 70 times the death rate. If that is the desired response of the Trump WH – goodbye the worlds largest economy, hello banana republic.

    1. If you don’t want too wear a mask don’t stay in your house. But most businesses say where a mask for service. Everything else you on your own me I putting on mines. I don’t know what the agenda with this virus. But not gonna risk my life to prove no point. This too shall pass.

    2. @Hebrew people wearing the mask brings down your immunity. and this is not going to pass. wearing a mask, shutting down the economy with a switch on and off anytime they want. this is the new normal

    3. @Walter White so what if they shut down the economy. So what you saying I should die. To keep the 1% wealthy. How come smaller countries than America got the virus under control the Tiny island of Trinidad is coronavirus free you know what they did they shut down everything only places that was open was the groceries and the hospital. Everything else locked down problem solved. America ain’t got no leadership 45 is trash and the economy that Obama built is what he needs to try win another 4years. Shut it down saves lives

    4. @Hebrew people …..not only do you digest the fake news very thoroughly you are good at it and i think you actually like being lied to……….LOL!
      wtf? if you spend just a few minutes watching FOX news everyday you would have all these questions answered for you. 90% of fake news is owned by 5 to 6 major corporations. most of the stockholders in those same companies prolly even know each other. fake news has an agenda. they are under contract to keep secrets from you. btw, hydroxychloroquine with z-packs and antibiotics, zinc, vit c & d and you will not get sick. But the fake news you watch will not tell you that.

  7. Trump Can Send Be Best Son Barron To School In August Or September If He Wants To ! What Do Barron Have to Lose? 🤷‍♀️

  8. facts, my god this is the first time i’ve ever seen this fact make it mainstream. about time man hah thank god i ordered my P3 filters and respirators back in february

    1. Right! I wear my 3M rubber mask and P100s whenever I walk outside, and I shave any facial hair where the mask should seal (per 3M documentation), to minimize any possibility of air passing around the outsides of the mask. Not taking any chances with a neighbor suddenly coming from around the bushes, accidentally, into my personal space.
      Call it “Half Life: Alyx Chic”. Ready for the apocalypse, j/k. 🙂

    2. ​@Billkwando lol yah man, i definitely feel you, i shaved my head (and donated my hair) a couple days ago dude feels so much more sanitary and safer wearing my mask dude. so glad to hear you are staying safe lol and yah i totally feel yah, people have been pointing, laughing, and staring at my polish MC-1 and (most recently) my spasciani TR 2002 mask every time i’m out, but i’m thinking to myself, i’ll be laughing next year when they’re dead.

  9. I wish there were clearer guidance on masks. I notice that Disney requires masks that go over the ears, I tried that and could not get it to fit properly , until i tied the two ear pieces together and slipped it over my head. Voila, a perfect fit. Now I make my own masks with two elastic bands that cross at the back of my head. Is their anything wrong with that?

    1. ruth depew they do have some with adjustable ear bands, but I have just started tying knots on each side. I’ve been told I have a big head 🙂 but clearly one size does not fit all.

  10. n-57 or better masks well fitting multi layer cloth with one of the layers being filter cloth or n-95 if you can replace it everyday come on people get on board save your counrty

    1. Richard, Trump had the lowest unemployment in USA history before the coronavirus, and Trump was not impeached he was acquitted! KAG

  11. In Trinidad and Tobago they flattened the curve, stay at home orders, social distancing and mandatory mask wearing was enforced by law enforcement and the threat of $10,000 fines for non emergency travel and gatherings, the government mailed out masks to citizens weekly.

  12. For every one person who dies:

    19 more require hospitalization.
    18 of those will have permanent heart damage for the rest of their lives.
    10 will have permanent lung damage.
    3 will have strokes.
    2 will have neurological damage that leads to chronic weakness and loss of coordination.
    2 will have neurological damage that leads to loss of cognitive function.
    So now all of a sudden, that “but it’s only 1% fatal!” becomes:

    3,282,000 people dead.
    62,358,000 hospitalized.
    59,076,000 people with permanent heart damage.
    32,820,000 people with permanent lung damage.
    9,846,000 people with strokes.
    6,564,000 people with muscle weakness.
    6,564,000 people with loss of cognitive function.
    That’s the thing that the folks who keep going on about “only 1% dead, what’s the big deal?” don’t get.

    1. Thank you for that. I’ve known the same for awhile. The media is so busy chasing the screaming wildfire that no one is going back to see what is lying in the ashes. Well, there it is – lives disabled by a stupid virus and our headlong rush to get back to beer and burritos.

    2. People need to remember: this is a country where you can hear on your local news “so and so was shot six times, but is expected to make a full recovery”. No one makes a full recovery from a gunshot… period.

    3. @Simon Schuster I mean even a bad fall off a bed and you can pull a muscle and not recover right from that ever take it from someone who knows.
