I have had 2 subconjunctival hemorrhages both in my left eye. There were contributing factors and both times the same factors, but both times I got poke from the metal insert in the upper bendable part of a mask. It got really bad with some eye products, grass trimming, dog/cat repellant, salinity and water affecting blood pressure, and exertion.
We are in an uptick here right now, the last few weeks. So we might have a 4th wave coming. Our vaccine rollout has been excellent however, so it is difficult to see either way. Looks like new England has a low percentage of antivaxxers.
Seems that 34 million more people are on the edge of famine because of the lockdown. I am irritated that this is reported as the covid pandemic moving 34 million close to famine. That is entirely untrue. It is our man-made lockdowns and travel restrictions that have moved these people close to famine. Generally speaking, these are young, thin people and the pandemic would not have harmed them much at all.
No, Michele. Masks have not moved a single person closer to famine. Not one. Masks are a zero-impact thing. Closing businesses, trade and travel have moved people closer to famine.
I am still irritated by your claiming that I supported things that I have been against from day one. I am for masks. I am for social distancing. I am for avoiding crowds where possible. I am for vaccines. I am for high-risk groups staying home where possible. I have never been for destroying our economies over this virus.
Michele, I am used to the fact that you don’t seem concerned when your wild statements are shown to be totally untrue. I haven’t yet stopped being irritated by it, but I am no longer surprised by it.
one would think most people would be smart enough to buy food for their family instead of masks, but then again some poor people cant do that online and probably had to prioritize buying masks before they could buy food or work…
so its not unlikely quite a few people moved closer to famine because of masks and its definitely not a zero-impact thing
Masks are freely available all over the world. In Canada and Colombia (the two countries I have been in over the last year), everywhere that requires masks usually has a few on hand for people who don’t have one or who lose them or damage them.
Nonsense. Colombia is not a rich country. Masks were always freely available everywhere when I was there. Every shopping mall and office building would take your temperature on the way in and they had a pile of masks for those who didn’t have one.
