Please tell me that he, and his employees, are following accepted medical protocol. You have no idea!!!! I have not entered my home is two months. I can if I want to bathe in Clorox. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I choose to not live paranoid and to not panic. There may never be a cure or vaccine or it make take years. Seeing how I have more years behind me than in front I have to make the best of it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanson Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 I wear a mask any time I am out. Sadly it is not an anti-virus mask, Apparently, if you believe the advertisements there are some very expensive masks that will protect you from breathing in the virus. My question is do wearing just your glasses with your mask protect your eyes much? They sure are not the plastic face masks I occasionally see on TV and very occasionally lakeside, that cover from the head down over your eyes and a little farther to about the end of your nose. Thanks in advance for your comments, should you like to make some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiko Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 Your rights end where my nose begins. A bully can yell insults at you and swing his fists all day long but once he lands a punch then his rights end. His aggression and ignorance have caused harm. CV19 is a highly contagious disease and anyone who is not wearing a mask is endangering the lives of many others. Anyone who can walk and chew gum at the same time understands. Grow up and act like a responsible adult. Learn from medical specialists who do not post on fakebook. Wear a mask and ignore those other talking head Tweeter Twits in the media who are promoting a hidden agenda. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people don't "get it" that the nose also needs to be covered. I have wondered if Mexicans think only their mouths need to be covered due to the name in Spanish. To me this is part of the education that those in authority should be giving, especially in places like Walmart, Soriana, Super Lake, Pancho's, pharmacies, etc. I have seen poets on various groups by people who have said they have turned around and walked out of some of these places because employees were either not covering their noses or even not wearing a mask at all.

Rich Richie Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 Please note the proper way to wear the mask is either on your chin or hanging off one ear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
