I just heard on the new that even stricter (tier 4) regulations could be implemented soon, maybe as soon as Boxing Day =/


Same mistakes being made - exiting a national lockdown into a tier system with areas placed as low as possible and moving up the tiers rather than down. I predict another national lockdown in January; rinse and repeat, we could possibly see a fourth lockdown before the Summer.

The transport embargo is a totally wrong approach. If they make sure truckers stay foot in their vehicle nobody will get infected.
Big roll-on & roll-off platforms, like a huge parkinglot, truckers can easily deliver their truckloads.
Just the transport of goods only, ... why not? :|

Let the army escort the transport vehicles throughout the land so shops will get their goods.
Can't the truckers just... ummm... wear a mask?

Like, they claim masks stop the spread, so, why can't the truckers just wear masks?

Unless... masks don't actually work?


There's no consistency or logic in these kinds of regulations and orders.
Masks do little to nothing if you haven't the right ones, and 98% of the people have not the right one so you may dismiss masks as a helpful tool.

I disagree, any form of face mask worn correctly would help as long as you keep to the distance rule and wash you hands properly and regularly.

A lot of people don't wear them or don't wear them correctly.

Technically, duct taping a banana to your head will help protect your head in case of a car accident.

Sure, it helps, but, not exactly a significant amount.

Holding your hand over your face helps too, but, not in any significant manner.

Obviously "any form of face mask worn correctly would help"... but how much do you believe it actually helps?
I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great! :)

Does that matter if we dont know how much? surely anything is better than nothing?
Remember Caz. Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Exactly.

If my country didn't treat it seriously and abide by the different stages of lockdown rules we wouldn't be free of it in our communities.

Just to be on the safe side, do everything in your power to protect yourself and others around you :)

If you use your hands, that's no good, you are breathing on your hand, those droplets of germs could spread.

I feel masks, distance and hand washing all work together to protect yourself and others.

That's what you're told to believe. But, is it really better than nothing? Could there be negative affects from wearing a mask? Could wearing an improper mask actually increase the spread?

Okay, sure, but, are you under the impression that it only spreads through large moisture droplets?

Everyone talks about the "droplets" and how the masks stop the spread of those droplets, and assume that because they help stop droplets, that they're providing protection. Why aren't people talking about how the virus spreads through aerosolized vapors?

If you have covid, and you're wearing a mask, you're coating the inside with the virus. At a certain point, you're no longer trapping the virus inside the mask, as the mask becomes saturated, and you're simply pushing the virus cells through the mask along with the aerosolized vapor.

Here's why people aren't talking about that: The MSM has spent a lot of time convincing people that masks stop the spread of the virus, so, they can't exactly talk about how the virus spreads through aerosolized vapor, otherwise people would realize how ineffective their masks are.

I understand how many people don't realize this, as they don't live in a climate where they can see their own breath in the winter:


See all that vapor coming right though his mask? That vapor, unlike the large moisture droplets doesn't fall to the ground within 6 feet. It can remain in the air for literally hours, and can travel as far as any air current will take it.
I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great! :)

You fail to give the exact details about how much it will help as most tests that have been done about 'spreading' through air are done in 'lab-controlled tests' which doesn't reflect real-life situations.

In our country, in the first most deadly period of covid-19, scientists/medical-scientists dismissed the use of face-masks/feasability because most of all weren't qualified enough (masks), or not at all, to have any effect in stopping the spreading.

In these teams of scientists/medical-scientists there's a lot of commotion/discussion about what is the truth or where to find the truth about what is going on.

A group of people, I refer to as the walking dead, have gotten the upperhand in this commotion/discussion, whom made the governments decide to enforce wearing masks and let law-enforcement enforce penalties (money) if you do not wear a mask.
So still there is no actual proof it helps or does anything at all.
A scientist did confirm masks only stop 'something' when someone is coughing up badly or sneezing their longs empty.
A test on our national television really did pointed out that most masks didn't had any effect at all and the 2% that had effect were masks used in hosipitals, masks with a true authentication.

Most people use selfmade masks from socks/t-shirts/curtains etc. etc. Other masks do fail tests but are sold in shops as good masks, ... but all they do is making money for the manufacturers.
Appearantly it is legal to 'to sell lies and make lots of profit' probably resulting in other peoples deaths, of course debatable but sadly that's the truth.

In a nutshell, scientists/medical-scientists have turned around and now we are forced to believe a lie.
