Pawdawg, you might want to stick your head in the sand and not read this one.
Recent study on the effect of mask mandate.
In Kansas, statewide mandate for masks was instituted but counties could opt out. Transmission was really high when the mandate was issued.
The counties that accepted the mandate saw reductions in COVID spread and counties that adopted the mandate saw reductions in cases over the next month (went from 17 cases per 100k populations to 16 cases) and saw dramatic increases in non-mandate counties (went from 6 cases per 100k to 12 cases, a 100% increase).

Not a big surprise that mask mandates work.
I do tours at Melrose, once or twice a week, and yesterday I had a young woman who...bless her heart...is so paranoid that she can scarcely function. One of my co-workers took me aside and whispered, "why the hell doesn't she just stay locked up in her Lysol-drenched house, then!?" I admit she was annoying to a point, but I was able to accommodate her such that she enjoyed the tour. She wore a mask and a face shield and held a disinfectant sprayer. "Can I spray the hand rail?" Sure!
Since the China virus is spread in droplets of water, or at least it can live longer in water than it can in the air, it makes sense to minimize the accidental "sharing" of "water" via spit, cough, or a sneeze. Masks can be aggravating...but then so too can the China virus. Choose your poison.
To prove that mask mandates work? Hard to devise a better experiment to test the hypothesis than one that happens in the same state at the same time.
I don’t know why you keep boxing yourself in an ever smaller corner. Just admit you were wrong and free yourself of the burdens of your past wrongheaded arguments.
WTH are you talking about? You and others here are the ones with the “mask light” demands. I’ve ALWAYS said to wear them properly AND distance. You and the haters don’t want stipulations
You’re “not in Kansas anymore” Guisslapp.

And compromised Biden/Obama will allow China to do just this. End Days type entry point for worse future mandates guy and gals! “Won’t be able to buy sell or trade without it” eventually I bet.
