Idiota!! My sister was very ill from it and recently I caught it and was vry ill we it!!! Do u care abt Infecting a vulnerable person we it? Oh I forgot your a fkn expert! Pfft gimp!!

Masks would have stopped you catching it would they?

This time 2 years ago the official advice was not to wear masks.
This was when the virus was at its most dangerous/ unknown.

Of course, this was because they didn't have enough masks to go round.
Then some tory worked out how to make a fortune by importing them on mass.

Of course by this time, the politicians realised they could get folk to do whatever they were told.
Stand up, sit down, keep apart, only go out for 45 minutes etc.etc.

You could tell the majority of it was b0ll0cks when they began by going on and on about washing your hands.

This is classic conditioning, they would have had us collecting pots and pans and cutting down railings if they thought they would get away with it.

Give the masses something to do, it makes them feel safe.

Somebody explain how pandemics work again, I canny be arsed. Its like reading Shakespeare to a cat

Wearing a caged frog around your neck was the preferred safety measure in 1665

Singing happy birthday while washing your hands was the preferred safety measure in 2020

Even then,it needed a Hungarian to come up with the washing your hands bit. (see Semmelweis)

Maybe Boris would have had us all just singing Happy Birthday.

There was excellent alternative advice from The Morning Star online, which suggested two choruses of The Red Flag.

Duly adopted, with the Beach End 1972 variant “when in the muck, we’ll fight like fuuck, to keep The Red Flag flying high” as I went about my ablutions.

Traitors do continue to flinch, and cowards do still sneer, unfortunately.

I’ve experimented with no mask this week, apart from today when the hearing loss mannie - THE FUUCKING HEARING LOSS MANNIE YOU DEAF PRICK - asked me to wear one in the enclosed hearing booth in which I spent time pressing buttons to get the audiogram. It read “YOU’RE FUUCKING DEEF YOU OLD ****”.

And at the risk of sounding like a broken record, there wasn't the level of study and research into the efficacy of masks in helping to stop the spread of coronavirus back then.
You know that but it doesn't fit with the 'masks are shyte' mantra you keep repeating.
That link I posted a few pages back shows how effective they can be.

Ok,
Sturgeon believes that wearing a mask saves lives but when she pops off to London for a Royal event she and her husband dont wear a mask. Regardless of what the country you are in and what their rules are, surely you would wear a mask to save everybody if thats what you believe....makes you think.

Aye, ok.

But what sort of country do you want to live in?

One where folk stay in and only go outside masked up and avoiding other folk in case they catch something.
A cold, a dose of the flu even?

We already live in a country where the vast majority of kids ( and of course adults now) are allergic to something.
Mostly due to f'uckin anti bacterial wipes and the like.
Molly coddled into a state where they're nae weel most of the time and take the first opportunity to play the "I'm nae able" card.

Time to take on life again and try to win, not sit back with your hand out.

Folk walking about with masks on perpetuates the loser mentality, that's what I'm against.

It's supposed to be Scotland the Brave, not a nation of fearties.

Great idea. What about the folk who are immunocompromised? What about their lives?
