Wearing masks at the ground ?

[soulman101]

After 18 months seems the sheeple are waking up.

There was NEVER any reason to wear the mask- it did not stop virus particles but it did make people feel good[virtue signalling] or feel safe [ ill informed scaredy cats]


There was ample research disproving the validity/effectiveness of masks if you had but researched it.


But you did what the government said and believed their b....hit

I'm sure none of the contributors to this thread ever poured scorn on those who spoke out against masks. But lots did.

Anyway please don't get fooled again - most likely in the coming Autumn lockdown.

Be brave - we all owe our God a death but we owe the government and its unelected authoritarian officials nothing.

Stay awake , alert and ready to resist

If it wasn't for us so called sheep following guidelines and thinking of others. The people who believe it's a hoax or are anti vaxers,wouldn't be enjoying their freedom.
If it was in 1939, it would the so called sheep would be on the front line fighting.

How does wearing a mask help exactly? & you know the jab does not prevent you catching Covid or prevent you spreading it. It does reduce symptoms so a bit like an expensive Lemsip!!

And your reference to 1939- there is little of the bulldog spirit in evidence - but plenty of acquiescence

I don’t agree Kets.

In Solihull yesterday every shop had merely advisory notices on their doors about masks and I reckon only 30% of people were bothering to wear one.

Fine if people want to but I don’t do I didn’t and neither did my wife.

If I was in the doctors surgery or a hospital environment then I would out of respect for others but in in public places or a public event.

Are you wearing yours when you’re out for a pint in the pub?

I suspect not so why bother when shopping?

Most important thing you can do is use the sanitizer on offer regularly and don’t touch hand rails on escalators and avoid touching your own nose and mouth which is what I did yesterday.

The only pub that I have been into so far has been a small village pub with only locals and a few regulars, it doesn’t get crowded and there is plenty of ventilation. I have a sneaky feeling that I will be in the Soho Tavern on Saturday……….! Wearing masks in enclosed spaces most of the time will not, I agree, eliminate risk but it does reduce it. I just think that exercising a little care in the next few months may just help in preventing the plague running wild again in the Winter. I do not want mandatory restrictions imposed again.

This matter could be simply resolved by making a huge canvas mask to cover the whole ground.

What about that night club owner who thought Covid was a hoax and he’s just died of it! That’s ironic! His family are now backing sensible restrictions but that does not help the poor c unt pushing up daisies! God rest his soul!

Went to Bournemouth the other night. Wore a mask on public transport but not in the pub, on the coach or in the ground as nobody else was wearing them. So my earlier caution/consideration seemed a little pointless.

I'll be on public transport for this one so I'll wear a mask on the train and Metro as usual because it isn't all about 'me'. I'll play it how I see it for the pub and the ground.

As for comments and descriptors such as 'sheeple'..... fk off.

Basic proven science! Hundreds of droplets ranging from 20 to 500 micrometers are generated and spread over a wide area when saying a simple phrase, but most of these droplets are blocked when the mouth is covered! Simply put wearing a mask indoors at least helps slow the spread of the disease as less infectious droplets are floating around!

Your science is faulty. Almost all masks do not prevent the transmission of the virus particles.

It even says so on the box .

Do you have an information source for your claims?


But you know best for you -do what makes you feel safe or virtuous just don't demand everyone does the same

There will be articles strongly suggesting the use of masks, there will be others that question the benefit. The fact is that some highly trained and knowledgeable people will take in all the evidence and question credibility of studies in order to come up with a conclusion that is best for the people of this country.

We are living in a world where the 'do your own research' brigade who aren't highly trained scientists and able to understand the credibility of such sources are questioning the worlds top scientists....the stupidity of these idiots to think they can understand such subjects to the point of advising people what to do is laughable.

I also extend that to being a reason why so many politicians across the world have struggled to plough a path through this pandemic. Ever since it started the scientists have not agreed on anything and you can always get someone in front of a tv camera to tell you what he/she believes will happen but at the same time you could line up just as many experts who tell you they know best and the other person is wrong.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, so is not having to make these difficult decisions with no clear evidence of what we should be doing for the best way forward anyway.
