Only because there are significant financial penalties for getting caught disobeying.
You really need to try for a fact once in a while. How many courses on mask wearing have you taught? Have you ever even been fit tested for a mask? There are potentially very serious health risks to wearing the same mask for too long at a stretch. Mostly from bacteria. Which you would know if you ever took a course instead of believing whatever the media spoon feeds you.
If you really think wearing a random piece of cloth on your face will protect you or anyone else by all means do so. But change it out every couple of hours and make sure they get washed.
Oddly enough that might be the best reason. I recently read an article from a medical journal about a study on infection rates in patients where the doctors wore masks and those that didn't. There was no statistical difference in infection rates. Couldn't determine from the article if they were comparable surgeries or not.
Congratulations for making sense for possibly the first time in your life! : I've often thought present currency should be divided by ten which would probably put things back to where they were 40 years ago and would have the added benefit of not having to pack a wheel barrow load of money to buy a loaf of bread! These incessant raises in wages and prices have just "killed" our dollar!
Nope it just proves that Petros is right, nobody is safe and everyone will get it at sometime.
Have I been fit tested for a mask? Well yes actually I have been, both by my husband who took safety courses through his job to certify him in the handling of dangerous goods, and by medical staff while my husband was receiving chemotherapy treatments at home through his chemo port. When receiving at home chemo treatments you are given something called a chemo spill kit in the event of well, a spill. It is a complete PPE kit including an N-95 mask that the medical staff taught me how to properly fit. Does that qualify? Good enough for ya?
Tell me, what course was it that you took that taught you of the potentially very serious health risks associated with wearing a face mask, mostly from bacteria. Please post a direct link to the organizations that host these courses. Also please provide the direct link to studies speaking of these life threatening bacteria in face masks. I would sincerely like to read those studies.
Yes I do believe that wearing a face mask makes a difference in the spread of covid and I will continue to do so. And no need for the closing lesson from you, I know probably, more than you, the protocols to follow related to face masks.
NO! What it proves is anyone who takes the number of risks he took has a good chance of getting it. I have some prime beach front on Ellesmere Island for sale for anyone who believes the malarkey we are ALL going to get it.
Did he not walk . That equals coming to his defence , in your eyes . Stretch much ?

vague info , misinformation, and now this. Will he be in isolation or will he ignore that too. He is determined to present as some "strong" man........along authoritarian.....yet irrational lines.
Nothing about this whole thing makes any sense.

Both from Firefighter training and hazmat training. We get it tested every year. AND I guarantee you don't know anywhere near as much as I do about face masks or you would know about the potential for bacterial build up in a mask from not cleaning.
It is very concerning to see that the mask issue is still being debated. Just as it is a concern that folks don't get that gathering in small close places is a prescription for virus spreading. Just look at the actions of the white house: no masks and no distancing ........ in their continued public events.
Just heard on CTV: apparently staff that get the virus ( in Trump regime et al).....are discouraged from making it public...........The dictator has spoken..........again Just as he has controlled the information about his condition.
HE IS DETERMINED to PRESENT a FALSE IMAGE.........with False INFORMATION
an aside: but the supporters at the hospital were organized by the republican party.....ie Trump gang . No surprise there It is all about photo ops and imagery. NO SUBSTANCE.But mostly ......no regard for human and their health.

Maybe this subject can be brought to a conclusion once and for all. I go to the lab in town here, where wearing a mask is mandatory, for blood work once a month, where at least 10 or more professionals are working. I think their opinions are more valid than random opinions off the street and they have Bonnie Henry to back them up. I takes a lot of gall for a lay person to think they are more of an expert than Bonnie.
