If a good vaccine is not found, how long are you willing to hide?

Since you asked, here is my take. I will wear a mask whenever out around other people. There is, as yet,  no way to know who could be/is infected. I could fall over dead my next breath - or- I have "X" amount of days/years left. Who knows? One thing I do know is that one's life is largly affected by the choices we make, from the moment we wake up til we fall asleep each day. The only thing I ask is if you decide to not wear a mask, then stay away from me. I am in no hurry to die just because I could not be patient til a vaccine is found. Do yourself a favor and make wise choices.


I don't wear a mask at one place.........my local pub.  The people in this pub are comfortable being around others who are mask free.  People there don't wear masks and that's the deal.  Those who are not comfortable don't come to this pub, and they have many other options.

 

Frankly, I don't know what people are doing at other places around town.

Bars, as in your local pub, have been major incubators of outbreaks since this thing began. The close proximity of bar patrons to one another in an indoor environment is perfect for spreading the virus. Bar patronage has been identified as a significant factor in the recent surge of cases in several states.

 

If you go to a bar and hang around, maskless, you may pick up the virus, then take it home and infect your brothers and/or your friends. Thus, you're negating their caution with your careless selfishness. And so is your friend Bud.

 

I know it's easy to come up with rationalizations why your behavior is supposedly OK. That's why you've been twisting the numbers and ignoring common sense. I thought it was political or ideological with you, but it might just be that you lack the discipline to behave the way everyone should during this pandemic and have been trying to convince yourself that that's OK.


I understand your position.  I just don't give a shit about your position, however.

Boilerman - I can respect your position  (though I don't agree) - but, if I lived in your locale, I would not visit your bar. With the way this virus is hanging around I think you may want to reassess your position. I wish you good luck - stay well.

I'm well aware that you don't give a shit about anyone other than yourself. Nasty old man.

Well, most narcissists enjoy the fact that they only care about themselves, so, not surprising.

 According to Kevin ( who would personally know better than anyone) -"Well, most narcissists enjoy the fact that they only care about themselves, so, not surprising."

There are 13 people with corona in my county of 170,000.  I feel pretty comfortable.  If you wish to hide, I support you.

Which county do you live in?

If you think that figure is accurate, you're even dumber than I thought. You live in a dead-red Republican shithole state where the authorities have been actively suppressing--by executive order, no less!--the statistics on cases, hospitalizations, and deaths--just to please Trumpie-poo.

 

How many people in your county have been tested?
