Post truth is basically the internet. It’s a problem. I’m not using a laptop, nor am I believing in a Ww conspiracy (by whom?). I have posted a few links to research institutions at Oxford uni. If you wish to wear a mask, go right ahead... while you still have the choice. Personally, if I were to believe that it was necessary to use one, I’d go for something pretty serious. If my life, and my neighbour’s lives were at stake I’d use something that works. Like this.. Or this.
Those links are not to be taken too seriously friends, i think covid is bio security level 3, not 4 btw. That’s in a laboratory environment, when you are handling the agent (virus) and doing so all damn day long.
Now, if you can’t imagine EVERYONE wearing a face mask that works (and i can’t imagine that), then we’ll have to move on to other strategies for managing risk.

Those are no good for protecting other people from you if you are infected as they have valves to let what you exhale out. Which is the theory behind the general population wearing masks in supermarkets. If you are in a hospital different rules apply.
ITT, Radar71 claimed there’s a worldwide conspiracy to hide medical information, twisted facts to scare others and sow distrust and doubt, and ignored any information that might counter their narrative while trying to look reasonable. And now they’re claiming the moral high ground. This is what disinformation looks like, not conversation. Disinfo isn’t just done by governments, it can be just one guy on their laptop trying to muddy the waters. But let’s agree to disagree, this is Lufguss not a debate forum.
I regret if I’ve annoyed you guys ITT, but I sincerely think that if we want to get out of ‘post-truth’ we need to start calling people out on their bullshit (and I include myself).
