It is a precautionary measure. BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY. What is the big deal. Wear a mask to protect you and other people so you and your family don't have to go thru what other families have to deal with.

@recital Haug-Yezeguielian u wear a mask every day from the flu? I think not
by (1.6k points)
@lubeck21 this is NOT the flu and a LOT of people die on the way to herd immunity. If it was possible to sacrifice those who volunteered along the way, then fine. Since we aren't able to choose those volunteers, then wearing a mask is everyone's civic duty.

@buckingham you have no clue what ur talking about. Flu kills more every year than this. Herd immunity is real but you wouldn’t know that. Stay home u will help us all lol.

@lubeck21 the fatality rate of the flu is . 5%. In the US, the fatality rate of Covid-19 has topped 3. 5%. I know what herd immunity is. In order to achieve it, the majority of people either need to be immunized or have contracted the disease and recovered and the latter would require a LOT of deaths, as if the 20, 000 recorded deaths (and likely tens of thousands more since the intentional lack of testing is keeping the recorded death count artificially low) isn't enough. It's called science and you would understand it if you watched anything other than Fox news and tRump's 2 hour daily propoganda rallies he masks as press conferences. Watch international news, like BBC and you will see what a laughingstock our country has become due to attitudes such as yours. Your decision not to wear a mask or support the stay at home guidelines is selfish and narcissistic. And yes, I will be staying at home. It will help all of you if I do, though in a more scientific and altruistic manner than you implied.

@lubeck21 such a well thought out, coherent and fact based rebuttal. Perfectly sane response. Guess you told me what's what.  
by (4.5k points)
With an attitude like yours, go without a mask and I really pray that you aren't responsible for infecting someone else you may come in contact with.

@buckingham fake news. By the way, if you haven’t figured it out by now you cannot debate with climate deniers and pandemic deniers. They disagree with science because of their feelings. Many of those who disagree with the pandemic interventions also refuse evolution and a round planet earth. So move on.

Ever since the Glenview outbreak (77+ tested positive) the most I leave my house is 1 a week if that. So I'm not concerned if Niles mandates it.

If you need masks, go to www. impactppe. com 3 ply surgical and KN95 are on there for purchase. There is about a 5 day lead time due to back orders, but your order will be filled. At checkout, enter the code J555 in the discount code field please. This is my friends’ company and I am helping him get the word out. J555 is the referral code for our area, and this helps with reporting on the back end, so please use the code. Impact ships out of Chicago, so when the order gets filled, it’s a one day ship zone. IM me If you have any questions; I’ll try to be as helpful as I can, or I can get you in touch with Impact PPE if so don’t have the answers.

@packton they have an interesting option to donate PPE.  
by (4.3k points)
@buckingham yes they do. They’ve been working in conjunction with medical facilities and not for profits around the country to get supplies out.

Please take care as ineffective kN95 masks have flooded the market and do not meet the standards
by (4.3k points)
@duleba KN 95 masks are allowed by the FDA, and are almost identical to N95 with regard to effectiveness, based on industry testing.

@packton this was sent to healthcare providers yesterday.  
by (4.3k points)
@grillwork84 of course if you’re using counterfeit masks, they’re not going to work properly. Certified KN95’s are effective and allowed.  
by (1.8k points)
@grillwork84 thank you that was exactly what I was referring to
by (1.8k points)
@packton please note my comment re not meeting the standards.  
by (4.6k points)
You're both right. There are many out there that are certified and compliant and many counterfeit ones making their way to the market too. People should avoid the brands Hubai or Sanqi
by (1.8k points)
Just to clarify I was saying these counterfeits are ineffective, not all kn95s
by (4.3k points)
@grillwork84 as far as I’ve learned up to this point, anything coming out of Hong Kong, is most likely fake.

Who the hell cares, just wear a mask. This will all be over soon and if putting a little piece of cloth on your face does nothing more than make those around you more comfortable, then so be it. None of us has ever gone through anything like this bs in our lifetime. Just suck it up, do your part to keep everyone somewhat sane and everyone will be totally back to regular life by Flag Day.
