What most non-maskers forget is that the virus has no legs. It can only spread through humans. If we stopped ALL transmissions for 5 weeks, the pandemic would be over. That's basically what NZ did. We could have, but we didn't.

(Interesting that W.D. qualified his statement with the bit about "our freedoms". Maybe we should look at how China has been successful?) Originally Posted by PillowPilot
in the U.S., the shut down lasted more than 5 weeks. i'd say the locked failed here. Originally Posted by dilbert firestormIt wasn't much of a lockdown, now was it? Many cities didn't have a mandatory stay-at-home. Only a small % had mandatory mask policies. Texas, for one, had virtually no real restrictions at all. Lots of people in public without a mask. I'll repeat for those that might require a refresher: "the virus can only move around through people. If we stopped ALL TRANSMISSIONS for 5 weeks, the pandemic would be over." That means that Billy Bob or W.D. that wants to go out without a mask and hang around other people can't do it for those 5 weeks. That means that we spend a lot of effort and time and money cleaning everything we can and being as careful as we can to stop the spread for those 5 weeks.
I guess Trump is to blame for the entire world not doing any better! Europe is having their second wave . Guess Trump is responsible for that too!Jeez Winn. You and your "kenyan" fetish. Let it go...
Wonder how many kenyans will die in chicago this weekend? That will be Trumps fault too heh? Originally Posted by winn dixie
