This is a new virus with no known cure and untested treatments.
It is unfortunate that every time the virus jumps from host to host it changes just a bit it can get stronger or it can get weaker. It is said the virus got ten times stronger when it came to the United States than it was in China. When it does these jumps it will replicate as fast as it can, it has but one purpose to replicate.
We can only experiment with cures or treatments. Effective treatments and a cure will be years in the making. Hopefullly there will be a cure soon. Treatments are improving by the day fueled by the deaths.
Still we try to use conventional wisdom to overcome the hazards of this disease. The damage includes the respitory, vascular and connective tissures with long lasting or permanent damage; the most devastating is death.
The percentages are low for death. I could survive or I could die that is a gamble I am unwilling to take.
Those who refuse to recognize the dangers are effectively maiming or killing, if they did it with a weapon they would be prosecuted.
Face masks are not a cure thay only mitigate the transmission. At this point in time it is the most effective way to slow the virus.
Those who improperly wear the masks or even refuse to wear one at all are either very ignorant, narcissictic or outright stupid.
Those who say they have health reasons are sadly misinformed the main reason you can't breathe in a properly manufactured mask is purely mental. It's callled hyperventilating, you think you cannot breathe therefore you take short breaths and it would not make a difference if you did not even have a mask on you would still deplete your oxygen.
If you don't want to wear a mask stay home let someone else do the shopping. I don't like them either but do not want to possibly infect someones Grandma or Grandpa or give a small child a lifetime of debilitation!
The reason restaurants are the major breeding ground is the large number of restaurant employees improperly wearing a mask or not at all. Improperly sanitized tables and chairs would be the second.
The biggest factor for disbelief is the large amount of disinformation and outright ignorance if you don't know say so and go find the right answer or admit there is no right answwer at this time.
Conventional wisdom is not always the best answer!
