Broken Cock, that’s not what the article says at all… it merely states that Covid 19 can be transmitted by aerosol particles and that measures such as increased ventilation and masks should be used to reduce greatly the transmission rate. Once again you lie Here’s a legit scholarly article that says that masks are 80% effective at preventing transmission: An evidence review of face masks against COVID-19 pnas.org Here’s another from JAMA saying that masks are effective Effectiveness of Mask Wearing to Control Community Spread of SARS-CoV-2 jamanetwork.com

Broken Cock, you said you'd post me stories about vaccinated folks dying of covid but you haven't done so. Is this yet another Broken Cock failure? On this subject: Deb Here is a sad case out of Texas, in a city near Houston.... Unvaccinated Texas mom and dad on ventilators beg their 4 kids to get COVID shots It’s likely too late for Lydia Rodriguez to get vaccinated - she and her husband, Lawrence, are breathing with the help of machines in a Texas intensive care unit - but their four children, she hopes, will get the shots. “One of the last things she said before being intubated was to make sure her kids get vaccinated,” Rodriguez’ cousin Dottie Jones said in a Facebook post. Lydia and Lawrence Rodriguez, of La Marque, were admitted to a hospital three weeks ago, ill with COVID-19, KTRK reported. Despite constant medical care, the virus has continued ravaging their bodies. Jones is asking for prayers, words of encouragement, any and all help that friends can spare for her cousin and family. She’s taken in their kids for the time being, Jones said, and on top of the emotional toll, the household and medical bills are “becoming overwhelming.” But this all could have been avoided, Jones said. “My 42 yo cousin didn’t believe in the vaccine. Now she and her husband are in the ICU on vents fighting for their lives with this delta variant while their 4 children are at home,” Jones said on Facebook. “The vaccine works and this delta variant is brutal. You don’t want to end up like them I promise.” --------------------------------------------------------------------- Texas couple who didn't trust vaccine change minds after ending up in ICU with COVID-19 By Courtney Carpenter Sunday, August 1, 2021 6:18AM abc7ny.com
