Chef Jim Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 Ok we have officially lost it. I had a guy come to our house to look at redoing our closets and said he required masks for the “safety of all”. I was required to wear a mask in MY house??
Chef Jim Posted January 20, 2022 Posted January 20, 2022 I'm assuming this has been brought up but I'm way behind here. I've been busy enjoying life. Anyway why is everyone so excited and pushing for these at home testing kits? It's only a result for that particular point in time. So are we headed to daily testing of every American? Wake up, brush your teeth, swab your nose?? WTF is the point of this?

I’m not sure if I’d go with “if we can save one life…” or “if we don’t all mask at home, the COVID wins” here.

Does everyone check to see if the refrigerator light goes off after you close the door?

I live in CA and I’m required. Not because I’m a model citizen I just don’t want to deal with confrontation. But as soon as the mandate ends (2/15 I hope) it will come off 24/7. No the flu does not FREAK me out... Hope works out for you. I will decide when I stop, even if not required. That is my freedom to decide.

Example, long term care facility, certain hospital situations, new borns or critical staff in industry. Daily or regular testing is designed to allow people to work in close proximity without contamination. Example in a nuclear facility or military, or air traffic control. Makes no sense in surfing😆

New born babies and nuclear power pant workers are NOT standing in those lines. And…I love how you say it ‘allows’ people to go to work? Who exactly is ‘allowing’ it? Sheeesh

Sheeesh And you never mentioned lines around the block, just that testing was pointless. When you have a contained environment, ie air traffic control, nuclear power engineers, where proximity is necessary then daily testing helps wipping out an entire shift. So allowing it is not laws or government rules, but survival to keep the power on in your SoCal residence.

Big Blitz Posted January 21, 2022 Author Posted January 21, 2022 British Commentator Breaks Down Describing ‘Damage’ Of Masks In Schools: ‘They’ve Ruined Our Lives Speaking on GBNews’ “Dewbs & Co.” Wednesday evening, commentator and independent journalist Sophie Corcoran, who was a student during the pandemic, spoke about the lifting of restrictions in schools, specifically mask mandates, and described the hardships imposed on students by the restrictions. “Honestly, this comes as a brilliant bit of happiness for me,” Corcoran said. “I don’t actually think I can stop smiling while I’m talking. It’s about time.” Corcoran told the panel she was most excited about the rescinding of the face mask requirement in schools. She argued against the imposition and efficacy of masks in schools, pointing out that the types of masks they were instructed to wear, which were not surgical “medical-grade face masks,” “would make no difference to transmission.” Corcoran went on to explain the problems of face masks within the classroom. “There were teachers that were sitting there that would, you know, be yelling at the poor Year Sevens about their face masks more than they would be teaching them. Those shy kids that would sit at the back of the class, that would never speak, it was a massive barrier to them, to impact their learning. They were already terrified, didn’t want to speak out, and now they’ve got another barrier to engage in their learning.” “You’re in schools to learn,” she said. “And the damage that they have done to my generation has been unbelievable … the damage they’ve done to the rest of our lives, to our education.” Asked to elaborate on what she meant, Corcoran recounted how in August of last year, she “literally watched [her] future crumble right in front of my eyes” because COVID forced her final exams twice. It was at this point that she began to break down. “They literally ruined our lives,” she said, holding back tears. “And nobody spoke about it at all. And the commentators, they had [teachers’] union reps come on and say ‘this is what the schools should have put in place,’ and they didn’t care about what this did to us [students].” https://www.dailywire.com/news/british-commentator-breaks-down-describing-damage-of-masks-in-schools-theyve-ruined-our-lives

So the only way this prevents Mr Burns from contracting it from Homer is if he (and every other employee) either a) never leaves the facility or b) never comes in contact with Covid at any time after that. Dude......seriously??
Big Blitz Posted January 21, 2022 Author Posted January 21, 2022 Are hamsters at higher risk of COVID-19 and should they be routinely tested in Singapore? The Animal & Veterinary Service says it is monitoring the situation in Hong Kong closely after the city ordered a hamster cull over COVID-19 fears. SINGAPORE: After Hong Kong's decision to cull hamsters over fears that they could spread COVID-19, Singapore's Animal & Veterinary Service (AVS) told CNA that it is monitoring the development "closely", but that it is not necessary at the moment to conduct routine testing of pets for the coronavirus. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/singapore/hamster-cull-covid-19-risk-hong-kong-abandon-fears-singapore-avs-2447261

My mother's fears were well founded. You do realize it's number 9 in the top ten killers in the US? People get and die from influenza every year without hysterical people such as yourself mandating masks. And because people die every year from influenza and a majority of them are elderly as I've mentioned before if you don't wear a mask around elderly people and children every flu season you're either hysterical now or a hypocrite then. You know.....protecting others from YOU! Stay safe?? So should I stay off the freeway? Stay away from fatty foods? Watch my sugar intake? It's a dangerous world out there Bill........BOO!!!
