Shitty day at work. And then found out all the maskless back-to the office types were spreading around the Covid at work, lovely. Why wear a mask when you're sick already? Yes and they are trying to convince a jury that a mom and pop company should have warned guys that when working on their widget 100 years after it was made, mom and pop should have warned em to wear a mask.

Then unsolicited contact from another outfit which would be good, but the backgrounds, ahem, I do not think would fit with mine.

Oh and then a string of Kansas and Styx tunes came on the iphone while listening on the train. Then the 90 degree weather made my evening run a fucking nightmare where I thought I was going to die. Bur in reading reddit.com/r/nycrunning it seams everyone was puking their guts up with this shite yesterday.

Leonhardt is a dipshit laughingstock, honestly.

Explain how this: " Masks reduce the spread of the Covid virus by preventing virus particles from traveling from one person’s nose or mouth into the air and infecting another person. Laboratory studies have repeatedly demonstrated the effect" fits with this:
"Anybody who wants to wear a snug, high-quality mask can do so and will be less likely to contract Covid."

In his defense, he's not as much of a dipshit as "Horse Meds" Carlson, even if he's doing his best to be in the running.

But the research for this one clearly involved little more than smoking a joint and jacking himself off.

Oddly, that does not look like the kind of fully vetted analysis and argument places like the CDC ought to rely on, and instead reads like "I've managed to find a couple docs speaking in an individual capacity who will confirm the theme of my article". It's particularly notable given that it's real easy to find people who disagree on the issue but none of them are quoted or cited.

Mask mandates have become a political hot potato, so we probably aren't going to see more except in a few isolated places. But can we not rely on this kind of facile op-ed for our medical decisions? Long term, we need a public health system that relies on rigorous analysis and substantive support for positions. Otherwise, we're going to really screw up the next time around, like we did this time.
The thesis is belied by the obvious observation that people stopped masking when the mandates went away. A more defensible thesis is that mask compliance matters more than a mandate.

Ask and you shall receive. Which is exactly what this paper says. Mask wearing works.

That’s about as much research as I ever did. I feel like I got good results from that methodology.

Me too, but when I started out my “research” was using hard copy materials, now I get it done on the internet.

OK, I should have realized most people here would endorse research involving a little smoke and some internet, uh, browsing. My bad.

Yes, the real problem is people like Adder who were hoping to save lives, not the people who couldn't be bothered to go along with it and infected other people and themselves.

The self-pitying, fatuous, myopic selfishness of people who complain about wearing masks -- surely that has been about the most tiresome feature of the pandemic, marginally more tiresome than the people who "wear" them but leave their nose hanging out to share their bodily fluids.

My wife works in a hospital where people wear masks every fucking day and don't complain about it -- amazingly, that's possible.

I have to wear a shirt and pants. And a mask. You don’t see me complaining. But this is Exhibit A why my failure to warn golden goose should be cooked.

How dare you complain about complaining, that kind of cancel culture approach to outright stupidity is why CRT is causing the mentally ill and school doors to engage in mass shootings.

I did not watch my buddies die face-down in the muck so that these people could complain about having to wear a mask.

I don’t agree with the logic of the article. I don’t see how masks can be effective but mandates not. That strikes me as one of those contrarian “ahah!s” that doesn’t withstand scrutiny.

As to Adder or anti-maskers being the problem, this binary framing ignores the majority of viewpoints. Most people were on a continuum in between the dimwits who think China had the right idea and “it’s just a flu… so fuck your masks… Freedom!”

Work from home. Doing calls after barely waking up, hung over, naked, confers exactly the level of respect the profession deserves.

ETA: Taking a shit while dealing with some annoying fuck would be peak zen. I’m not there yet.
