Coronavirus COVID-19

[Gil Dobie]

You still don't seam to understand that mask do not need to be worn all the time. I can see why you are so much against mask if that's what you think. That's not how it works, so simma down.

I understand. I understand that they’re a complete placebo, and serve absolutely no purpose other than acting as a physical manifestation and symbol of the ridiculous fear people have embraced. But if he’s gonna mandate a mask, he might want to follow his own guidance.

The local casino requires mask on everyone, plus social distancing and temp check entering the building. Thousands of customers a day, over 2000 gaming tables. They have been doing this almost 2 months. No covid cases from the casino. It's a pretty good indicator that something is up with masks.

Who said masks solve everything?

Who said masks solve anything?

Thailand does

where they have full mask wearing and zero community spread...

... after being the first country outside China to experience an outbreak

So why are we still limiting crowds?

Maybe because of social distancing? As Gil said in his post?

If masks solve everything then voting in person with masks should not be a problem, correct?

Agreed.

If masks are the solution why do we need lockdowns?

Agreed.

If casinos can be open (hint: tax revenue) why can't bars and restaurants?

A multifaceted strategy? Whoa, whoa, whoa. That's way too complicated for us Americans. We need simple solutions that don't require us to have to actually do anything.

Why can't we have a funeral for grandma but John Lewis can have a funeral and other related public events?

If you can put 2000 people into a casino, why can’t we put 15,000 people in a 50,000 seat stadium?

Because there are too many Nancys who don't wear masks.

If the bars and restaurants require mask, and social distancing with temp checks, just like casiono's, open them up.

If they can figure out the logistics, no problemo.

"Wait, let me get on my mask."

California has mandated masks since mid-June. Why do their case numbers continue to rise?

Because not all the blm protesters had masks on in their early June protests. I expect this spike to subside in the next....wait for it...two weeks...

California just reported their fewest number of new cases since July 5th.

Cases have also peaked and are on downward trend in Texas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia and most of the other “hotspots” that the panic porn pushers have been raging about...

Oh, and that horrible death “spike” we were going to see? Yeah....pfffffft. Cases went up 350% since June 16th. Deaths went up about 30%. And are headed back down now.

Is that an oversimplistic characterization?

On the casino side - How long is the casino open? How many people are in the casino on average? At peak/capacity? Are lines shorter and more manageable (easier to maintain 6 ft) because of the longer hours?

On the stadium side - How do you handle the lines of people arriving before / leaving after a 2-3 hour event? How many people can you fit in the stadium and still maintain 6 ft of separation? Probably 25% or less. Assigning seats knowing that family group size will vary could be extremely complicated.
