Idiots protesting in London

[JohnD]

Not the same with breaking the rules about the spreading of the virus, a few people break the rules and as a result many people will be harmed,

If the entire population of the UK had the necessary knowledge and common sense to always act is a way that would prevent the spread of the virus then there would be no need for draconian laws.

But you say that doesn't apply to Boris' dad or Dominic Cummings.

JohnD you could argue with a paper bag and still think you had won the day.

 

[JohnD]

If you say so, Boris.

 

[Dangee]

Yawn

A 98 in 100 chance of not getting the virus if you come into contact with it, is better than a 100% chance of catching it.

Note: it says 98% bacteria, not viruses.

 

[JohnD]

Luckily, water droplets expelled from the mouth and nose are much bigger than bacteria.

Really, Dr. Johnny?
I have Asthma and wear a mask when required. I may be mistaken, but I haven't suffocated yet.

My asthma is returning, seems like it went when I started smoking, and is coming back after quitting. I use a valved mask, I can breathe fine with it.

 

[JohnD]

I use a valved mask

A valved mask is nowhere near as good at reducing transmission.


The league table of the 14 masks tested (picture number):

1. N95 mask, no exhalation valve, fitted (14)
2. Surgical mask (1)
3. Cotton-polypropylene-cotton mask (5)
4. Two-layer polypropylene apron mask (4)
5. Two-layer cotton, pleated style mask (13)
6. Two-layer cotton, pleated style mask (7)
7. N95 mask with exhalation valve (2)
8. Two-layer cotton, Olston style mask (8)
9. One-layer Maxima AT mask (6)
10. One-layer cotton, pleated style mask (10)
11. Two-layer cotton, pleated style mask (9)
12. Knitted mask (3)
13. Bandana (12)
14. Gaiter type neck fleece (11)

I’m contacting the army’s haz mat unit..... they’re doing it all wrong...

I wear it to protect me, that's all. It won't increase the spread if others wear masks, if they don't wear a mask and they catch it, tough sh!t.

 

[JohnD]

I wear it to protect me

ah, I understand now. You don't know or care how masks can be used to reduce the spread of infection.

 

[Ihavenojob]

ah, I understand now. You don't know or care how masks can be used to reduce the spread of infection.

You obviously DON'T understand, you lackwit.I wear a mask, it protects me, the virus doesn't spread to me. If everyone (I mean 100% of the population) wore the same type of mask as me, it would reduce the spread. It's people NOT wearing masks that helps spread the virus. Which camp are you in regarding masks, wearer or non wearer?. (I won't hold my breath for the answer)

 

[JohnD]

like I said, you don't understand or care how masks are used to reduce the spread of infection.

 

[Ihavenojob]

like I said, you don't understand or care how masks are used to reduce the spread of infection.

Lackwit. Does wearing a mask help to protect a person wearing it from the virus, yes or no?

 

[EFLImpudence]

At first it did not - just to stop you infecting others - then they discovered it partly protected you as well.

That's the trouble with new inventions - no one had tested them before.


I have this afternoon discovered that these

are useless when using car spray paint (from can).


Whether that shows anything for viruses I don't know.
