My take on this is that viral pandemics like this are an expression of evolution: there are too many humans alive on the planet at the same time; add to this the ability to travel to the other side of the planet in a short period of time, which enables a virus like this to spread like wildfire. Who it's killing (or should I say 'culling') are the weakest amongst us, genetically-speaking: your genes either render you highly susceptible to it, or your genes just make you weak in general, you get sick, you die. Note how small a percentage of actual infected people actually die; the rest may in cases take a while to recover fully, but they are now proven to be better suited to remain in the gene pool.
Note especially that it's infecting and killing the stupid people ("""muh freedums""", won't wear a mask at all for any reason, or """muh religious freedums""", insist on congregating in a building, shoulder-to-shoulder, maybe no masks, too).

I'm not saying we should all just ignore it completely and let it take, say, half the population of the planet; that would be a chaos we would never recover from, our civilization would be ruined. But everyone panicking over it like they do isn't going to help anyone, it's just making things even more unpleasant.

Let's start with its severity. Its deadlier than the flu because researchers predict its r0 is high.
https://www.the-scientist.com/features/why-r0-is-problematic-for-predicting-covid-19-spread-67690
Flu has an r0 of less than 1, which means its unlikely to spread far if one person gets it. Coronavirus, on the other hand, has been shown to have an r0 of at LEAST 1, and a maximum of 5. Some research articles I read even detailed an r0 of even 6-8. Of course, this isn't practical to estimate because the pandemic needs to be over to fully calculate CFR and r0.

There are countless studies that show that having a respirator is effective against viruses because their mesh doesn't allow anything in or out except air.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4868605/
Here is just an example of an article.

off the top of my head masks reduce probability of spread, catching big droplets. le maymay about aerosols/viruses being too small is true but even then due to pressure masks can catch a lot of them. a lotta stat mech stuff id believe. they can escape out side tho. but yeah reducing chances of transmission is fine.

>> No.11932705

What's so bad about wearing a mask anyway? I wear one in shops, public buildings and at work when not at my desk. Advantages of the mask:
>can actually be comfy and warm
>protects colleagues from bad breath (works both ways)
>can look cool
>is a sign of respecting each other
>might protect from all kinds of shit people sneeze around
Disadvantages:
>sometimes itches a bit
>can tug at the ears a bit uncomfortably
>can cause glasses to fog up if worn wrong
>eventually causes a dry mouth if you talk a lot

I honestly don't get what the big deal is. I could very well see masks becoming a standard piece of clothing at least for public transport.

See pic related. The general findings are that non medical grade masks can reduce the spread of covid by about 40% because like >>11932291
pointed out it's borne on water droplets which are absorbed by the masks. The masks will do a better job at preventing you from spreading covid 19 rather than protecting you from it but overall it is better than nothing. N95's on the other hand are more protective and in medical settings they are frequently worn with a surgical mask over them.

As far as good scientific evidence that this isn't just a stronger flu, here is a link to litcovid
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/research/coronavirus/ it is an entire database of the latest research articles which I would encourage you to explore. This is a totally different species of virus from the flu which has been observed to not only target the respiratory system, but cause blood clots/strokes, heart tissue damage, possibly male testicular damage/fertility problems (still unconfirmed I believe), Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children and neurological problems such as myalgia, dizziness, confusion and others. The things I listed are just scraping the surface. More and more evidence is showing it can impact the entire body and not just damage your lungs. Long term effects are still unknown but the average years of life lost is 10 for females and 15 for males. Overall I hope you take care of yourself and your loved ones. I am not saying you should wear a Hazmat suit but exercise common sense. Avoid crowds/hosting large gatherings, when you're going inside a store please wear a mask (and if you want take it off after you leave). It's just courteous to the elderly/vulnerable especially if you are living in a city with a spike in cases. I am not American but I live in a country that has done a very good job at weathering this pandemic for the most part. Public health and medical science should not be politicized like it is in the USA. Take care.

Masks do not cause hypoxia. You can buy yourself a pulse oximeter to measure your own SpO2 levels and heart rate while wearing one and unless you are unhealthy it will be between 94-100% (perfectly normal levels).

It literally did though. I was in an actual hospital, blood oxygen would go from 90 to below 80. I didn’t imagine it, they even told me to stop wearing it even when they came in the room because of that. Sure, for a normal person their lungs are strong enough to compensate and keep saturation unchanged, but that’s not inconsistent with saying it made it harder to breathe.

What room for other factors are you trying to suggest there is? It’s a tens of seconds long experiment. At that point, you’re the one relying on conspiracy tier probabilities. Obviously the effect was much more obvious and pronounced since my lungs were fuck to the point of not even being able to go to the bathroom with saturation dropping dangerously low, but it at least shouldn’t be unthinkable that in a normal person it at least induces some kind of discomfort.

because it is propagated by detestable people who should be mass exported to Mars in any perfect utopia
because it is selectively excluding political movements like BLM to not gather any more enemies than the socially-excommunicated nazis and trump supporters who're the only ones opposing it right now, i.e it's playing politics
because it is a power move and people masturbate mentally to the thought of forcing someone to wear them even if it's strongly against their will and even if the masks were proven to not be useful, a bit like a mass Stanford prison experiment

Clothes have nothing to do with this. Two completely different subjects. And for me specifically, it's not only THIS social norm that's reprehensible, it's quite a few, it's just that this one is relevant right now.

That wasnt me and I’m not even entirely sure what he’s mad about, but I never suggested they would actually serve that. Obviously no one knows yet since they had just been arrested in that headline. The point is that they COULD. For example, if you saw a headline saying a kid could serve up to 40 years for stealing candy, you wouldn’t find it at all odd cause he “probably won’t serve that long”? It’s still outrageous that the act could bring on that kind time, when I could rape an actual human and spend maybe 10 years. Not that anyone’ll believe her.

That’s not it. People love to shit on Americans for this, but it’s a much easier thing for other populations to do even if both populations were equally intelligent because both are making different calculations. Ever since 9/11 (and probably before but I’m not that old), the government has become increasingly hostile towards what was once considered unquestionable right. Once the rage against towelheads died down enough to stop blinding them against what the government was doing, people started rightly questioning every time the government tried to give itself more power. Now there’s a subset of people with thought process of “if the government tells me to do something or not do it, it better have a really really good reason” rather than “they say it’s good and it doesn’t hurt me so I’ll trust them. I think this is obviously not the hill to fight overreach in, but Americans are understandably much more skeptical of ANY government directive and any country where that was also true would probably be facing defiance as well.

It just hit me that if the point of lockdown was to flatten the curve, not actually prevent people from getting COVID altogether, then basically the lockdown was the government's admission that they have no contingency plans for extreme emergencies and instead of owning up to it they'll make us suffer the consequences instead. Data shows that even if Sweden got a spike of deaths quicker, countries like GB are already getting up there anyways. So this is it. We were just good little goys for complying with the lockdown.

Instead of asking your citizens to destroy your economy maybe you should have invested into a more robust healthcare system that can expand and contract as needed to fit the needs of your citizens.

It's hard to give solid numbers for many countries, but the USA has been tracking Flu + Pneumonia deaths for a long time. It averages 50k-75k flu/pneumonia deaths combined per year. Since February, there's been 220k Flu/Pneumonia/COVID-19 deaths. But maybe you think COVID-19 is being misdiagnosed, so that's inflating the numbers. Looking at only pneumonia deaths (so COVID-19 and flu deaths not involving pneumonia aren't included), the number is 140k. Pneumonia deaths alone, in less than six months, has nearly doubled the upper end of the average pneumonia/flu year for the USA.

Who said I do? There's people that seem totally unaware that not all N-95s are vented, and that it's been recommended not to wear vented masks since January. As for knitted masks, both the WHO and CDC recommend homemade masks that are at least 2 or 3 layers, so it's disingenuous to act like wearing a knitted mask is within the spirit of the guidelines.
