<<Pretty clear the virus doesn’t care about masks and masks aren’t a significant factor in spread dynamics.>> You should argue your case to the nurses and doctors in ICU units around the world.

This issue was well settled over one hundred years ago when they had a flu pandemic that took a great toll and killed about 2.5% of the world's population. THEIR scientists did studies and came to the scientific conclusion that masks were useless except in a minimal way when worn by those who were ill. (They put patients outside in the fresh air and sun and improved their O2 intake, D3 absorption, warmed them up, and killed pathogens clinging to their clothes.) WE have invented the science of nonsymptomatic disease and asymptomatic disease spread. In THEIR world, people were healthy unless they showed obvious signs of illness. In OURS everyone is considered to be infected unless proven otherwise. And as there no way of diagnosing those among us who are asymptomatic 'suffers' it is always easy to say we are not doing enough. OUR bucket does not have a hole in it, it has no bottom. We can never do enough to defeat a disease that does not exhibit signs. (A farce worthy of Monty Python) Flatulent pandering to the 'We must be concerned' crowd is just the kind of thing the liberal-minded 'I-really-care' crowd loves. It costs nothing, requires no effort. Liberals have the methodology of complaint down and rely on the government to cover their tracks with others' money. Attempts to continue this murderous farce force people to become experimental subjects of technologies that are yet to be fully proven, have full liability waivers, and are not yet proven safe on animals, let alone humans. Forcing people to submit to what amounts to experimental testing is against the Geneva Conventions. It is the same crime Fascist scientists hung for after WWII. Yet, the same forces supporting forced mRNA vaccines on humans are, at the same time, generally adamantly opposed to GMO use on plants? Genetic modification occurs in both. These are psychopaths. Extended Health bans in the face of no provable benefit are not Constitutional. We have destroyed citizen rights based on a disease that is at best a bit worse than the 2017-18 flu. ln a few years the US will very likely be involved in a civil war. It will have started by many self-serving ignorant wokes in masks pushing worthless ideas to a panicked population and egged on by a press that chooses to focus on experts who have no desire to speak the truth. Woke mentality supports the censorship, harassment, arrest, and murder of the guy down the street. Slowly the Government is claiming the right to do so. Remember, this all to protect the population from nonsymptomatic disease spread by asymptomatic individuals. Americans are famous for killing others over nonsequiturs. Perhaps it is time we direct our ill-educated fears toward self-destruction and not some peasants in a remote part of the world.
