How soon before EVERY retail store requires "masks"of some type? I have NO issue with wearing one, but several co workers refuse to wear one because the sign on the front door (unless a guard is posted like at Menards) says a mask is "somewhat" required by order of the "state" in question (INDIANA).

in answer to your question of when...who knows... It will be hard to 'make' the 'i will not be told what to do' crowd follow the guidelines. for my part I will wear one to be safe and does not bother me that others don't... just better not be b-itcing when they get sick. that is my side of it. or one of my sides

I only wear one when I go into a store that is crowded. My little town has only one in that class. I did go to a grocery yesterday and saw from the cars in the lot it was full. Wore the mask. Other than the employees who are required to wear a mask, I was the only other one. No distancing, just doing their shopping as though nothing concerns them. This was even true of the senior citizens. Had an eye appointment today and was required to wear a mask along with the employees. Also took my temp before entering and used a germicidal wash on my hands. No problem on my part.

I also wear one depending on the situation. If it's a store I have to go to when crowded and I can't wait until a less busy time, or if it's a smaller store with people in more confined space I will wear one. If a big store with few people and I can keep some space I won't. At some point people need to just take personal responsibility, the bull-headed ones who can't be told what to do can suffer on their own accord.

There is actually a battle going on in Pa. Under the governor's emergency order, we are still required, But both the state house and senate took him to court, said the time has come to drop the emergency order. the issue, I believe is, I believe, good ol' gov Wolfe is able to milk the US government as long as we are under an emergency order. We have some esoteric red, yellow, green system for what it is worth, controlled by the governor, he put us to green, bust still enforces the emergency order. this means some business can open, but under limited capacity, and, of course, the obligatory distancing and masks

I don't wear one unless someone makes me! work, etc

i wear one when i go to any store in our town. my immune system is shot, i wear one for my own somewhat protection...i think it's better than nothing. i know alot of folks that refuse to wear one, and that's their right, but don't go crying to anyone if you get sick! i've been home for the past over 3 months, been only to town for refill on meds. (6 times)

I wear one when required, I have 2 separate mask certifications required for work in hazardous areas, get my temperature taken several times a day.  These things people are wearing are surgical masks, they are designed to keep the surgeon from spitting inside the patient when talking and giving orders during surgery, not designed for anything else.  If it makes people more comfortable wearing one then by all means do it, it's kind of like medicines, a lot of it is confidence in it working.

The masks themselves do NOT protect the wearer, are only for protecting those around the wearer if that person is sick. If makes feel better be my guest as to wearing one but are not Self Protecting.

I wear one whenever I'm in a place I cannot practice safe distancing.  I got two masks from the Senior Center for free.  We still have a box of the light duty surgical masks the wife got when she was working with an elder patient and needed them.  I guess I am just concerned about my fellow people and don't want to spread anything or get anything.  That is basically what it boils down to, concern about others.

Please tell us that your  joking Confused ?? Are you/were you a smoker ?? Do you adhere to the "NO SHIRT/NO SHOES/NO SERVICE" policies of your local retailers ?? IMO, the mask wearing will be mandatory after seeing all of the "spikes" in cases since the "opening" of states Ouch

Masks are NOT helping, People wear them Wrong or Poorly, they get a false sense of security 'Knowing' they are protected when not. Takes a Hospital Grade Mask and Face Shield with disposable gowns as well glove changes OFTEN to even come close. And even then nurses get sick, staff around hospitals not in close contact get sick. This is a Virus, it is NOT going to "Go Away" there are NO Magic Immunizations shots coming in weeks to months as the Virus morphs and mutates opposite as the Demonrats have put out, they only want the economy tanked until November so they can say they saved the US when only the Virus running the course it must.

NEVER smoked or drank in my life---I was born with weak lungs and all the welding fumes and field dirt complete with deadly chemicals that farmers use didnt help any over the years, so NO I am not about to cover my face with dyed rags --- Doctor office and me had a real battle over this crap and sis came up with the idea of my clear face shield that I wear when I run the sawmill. --- Went back to doctors office, walked in stuck the thing on and walked to the waiting room. ---- They tried to throw me out again because it wasnt a rag over my face! but after a few lawyer names were tossed out to them, I got to see the doctor, which I might add had me take off the face cover all the time I was in there!
Had to have chest x-ray then the following week a chest scan--- havent heard anything  yet----Probably wont.
These azze's keep messin around,---several lawsuits are going to come down the tube! Trust me on that---people are getting fed up with this crap and are starting to wake up a little.  Time to say NO and stand your ground!

For a person who is healthy, a mask is not designed to stop a virus from you. A mask will keep what you exhale closer to you.

all depends on the TYPE OF MASK...... Many in the coal mines or dusty areas / grain bin cleaning -- will wear N95 masks.. THat is NOT to protect the enviroment.. It keeps the CRAP out of YOUR LUNGS................ now a surgeons mask is different,, It keeps HIM from coughing to spitting onto the Patient while standing over him... Does NOTHING for what the surgeon is breathing in... sides are somewhat open.

Well, If I understand correctly, Elkhart County (IN.) is going to a MANDATORY face mask/covering of some type as of 12 AM (EST) to go into ANY public establishment unless you've got a medical note saying your respiratory system is too weak to allow for wearing one Confused (sounds like then you're on the at-risk spectrum anyhow Unhappy).Apparently even a "bandana" covering will suffice ?? How's a handkerchief as protective as 3 layered, single use, blue ear loop mask?? I'm not sure where you guys are saying that I "said" a mask will protect  a person FROM the Carona, the masks are to prevent the wearer from SPITTING/SLOBBERRING all over merchandise/products in a public store !!!

I see Dr. Faici wearing one all of the time now.  With his credentials I would rethink the "Mask don't help" philosophy! 

The mask is not to protect you, you wear it to protect those around you from whatever you may be carrying.  You don't wear a mask .  .  .  you don't care about your fellow persons.  Make whatever feeble excuse you want, if you don't wear a mask, you only think and care about yourself.

John, I will NOT accept your BS! You cannot tell me if I don't wear a mask I don't care about anybody else! Just because I don't cowtoe to your erroneous beliefs I don't care? The fact of the matter is the mask is just ever so slightly north of useless for the intended purpose. Especially, but not exclusively, the ones such as the bandanas that are open on the bottom, and the ones that people wear over their mouth, but not their nose!!!!
Your very own Dr Faici stated we didn't need masks early on! most of the masks, including the surgical ones are too porous to contain the virus molecule! It will go right through with your breath! Not to mention all around the sides because your masks do not seal!
You are only fooling yourself! It's like putting up a two wire barbed wire fence to keep the chickens in!!!!

Tidbits to chew on. California, NYC, Chitcago Mandated mask use ANYTIME one is outside, are now seeing the Fastest rate of infection increases. ST Louis City mandated masks a month ago, the county just mandated mask use AGAIN, are STILL not open for general restaurant or venue access where masks are more present in public and the numbers are Still rising rapidly. St Charles County, just across the river, NO mandatory mask calls, lower rate of infections in general. Dallas and Houston TX, masks mandatory again with no open contact conveniences, rates are horrible, just outside those cities LOW infection rates.

So prove to us all AGAIN how masks are doing So Well.

Yep blame it all on bars,and restaurants.Never a word about the protests and riots. Also the ones ending up sick are 18 to 49 year old's this time. GEE WHO WAS OUT PROTESTING.


The word on the street is you get sick Wink south of the boarder come to Caly and get hospital care for nothin. But all the politicians would never do anything shady,would they???LOL


The whole dang thing is shady to me,but hay I don't never know nothin.



And before anybody gets their undies in a knot,YES THE VIRUS IS A REAL THING. And it does kill a few. But that is life,death comes to all of us someday. And the vaccine for any of this flu stuff is is LESS THAN 66% effective.  So the whole world needs to get this crud and go on with life or death.


I live in a county with about 285,000 people. About 400+ hospital beds. With panic money built a over flow hospital in the University gym. Less than 20 people in the hospital for Covid at any one time. But with the new cases extended the contract on over flow hospital till Dec. Only cost $4+++ million.  You keep wasting money in this fashion there will be no heath care left for anything or anybody.


I have had 4 family members that needed long term care in their last 3 to 5 years. They got visited way more than the average person there,only a hand full of days somebody did not go in. Which meant they got much better care than average, which was still nothing to look forward to. But this virus looks like suffering is much less than taking years to go out is.

I am not advocating you look to go catch this bug,but if everybody hides all the time we will starve to death.I have great peace by the fact chances are VERY LOW I will have to watch my children or grandchildren die from this crap. From reading history that was not the case in 1918 flu.

Sure would be nice if only true things where published about this virus. Since 99% of the main stream media  is off the scale to the left, you have to know they SPIN EVERYTHING to convince us to do what they want. So use the brain you where give. Weight everything with all the common sense you can muster. DO NOT USE EMOTION ON LIFE AND DEATH, STOP AND USE THE BRAIN POWER YOU HAVE.

That's one way to look at it, kinda the 'logical or common sense' way...

Now if you have an 'agenda', you can push,pull,prod,manipulate the data for YOUR agenda.

I see FREED GUY  is from the state that has a governor that is an IDIOT.  My mask sort of protects you from me,  does hardly anything from protecting me from you.  If you want a mask to protect you from everybody else then get a respirator,  commonly called a gas mask in the army.

Walmart Now Requires All Shoppers To Wear Pants

U.S.—In a move that's being called "unprecedented tyranny," Walmart is now requiring all shoppers to wear pants in their stores.

Americans everywhere slammed Walmart for the move, saying it amounted to an infringement on our constitutional rights.

"I thought this was America," said one man as a greeter asked him to please put on some sweatpants or something before coming into the store. "It is my constitutional right to go into Walmart and shop for random stuff at 3 a.m. wearing nothing but some boxers and a giant Tweety Bird T-shirt I got in the '80s."

"Look, we don't think this is too much to ask," said a Walmart spokesperson. "Just throw on some sweats, pajama bottoms, whatever. This is for the health and mental safety of our employees. And for the love of God, take a shower once in a while, you know?"

Shirts will remain optional.Wink

We have had 15 WHOLE Cases of ?Coronavirus? or Covid19, seems no one is willing to call it what it is, positives in the county, only 4 of which had symptoms, the four have recovered with Mild Illness and the rest well they are under orders to remain at home until further notice and further testing so our County Health Department notified ALL Retailers to require masks to enter.  Not defined will stop the infections, just a blanket do this.

Throwing the masks and gloves in the parking lots when the world is a global pandemic and some countries don't have the required masks to protect their citizens sounds crazy. As well as news about people refusing to wear masks because they don't trust social media, this is crazy. If people around you refuse to wear masks, an N95 mask protects you far better than a cloth mask. For me is the best choice; I use http://https://pandemicpal.net/n95-masks-coronavirus-covid-19/" rel="nofollow - the high protection N95 masks with respirators for two months. N95 mask you can use several times, and it has better protection than simple cloth masks.

I know this is an older thread, so I’ll just add my $.02 worth as an update. The 2020 IowaStateFair was canceled, the 2021 Fair was easily 1000 no mask wearers for every mask I saw. For those who don’t know, the ISF usually brings 1 million plus through the gates over 11 days. A similar situation was reported at this year’s Iowa and Iowa State game in Ames. Overwhelmingly no masks. There were concerns about these being super spreader events, but so far not at all.
As far as masking goes, I won’t fight or whine about it. If you put a sign up saying mask required to enter, I’ll just take my money elsewhere and never come back, just like I did Menards. Lowe’s is a couple blocks away and always has what I’m looking for.

People that don’t like masks just go someplace that doesn’t require them but the mask pushers go to extra lengths to make people wear or businesses require them instead of wearing it themselves and going on. Case in point, Jackson Co MO shut down Rae’s Cafe in Blue Springs because they wouldn’t enforce the “mask mandate.” Two days later, 15 miles away, same county, same health department, they filled an entire Chiefs football stadium on Sunday, no masks, no warning, no shut down. You check social media and the anointed ones are calling for Rae’s to be closed for good.

Please Freedguy use some of the time you think up questions to ask here, to study the history of the Spanish Flu of 1918.

I only have to go 1/2 mile to the local country cemetery. Families lost 2 or 3 or 4 even more members in less than 30 days. THAT IS A PANDEMIC . This is a flu just a tick worse than a normal flu season. I am not saying you don't need to use care. But if you are depending on a piece of regular cloth in front of you face to save the world, the world is doomed.


Once it became apparent that children where not affected this whole thing became a joke to me. At this point more miss information than information floating around the net.  But just saw on World Meter I think it was, less than 450 persons under 21 have died in the USA that could in any way be called covid.   I cannot think of anything more treble thing than having to watch your children or grandchildren die.  But most on here are expendable and the world would go on just fine.   Other than no one try and to put some common sense into your thinking.

Now to put your brain to work, look and tell me how much worse Sweden is that did buy all the BS of lockdown and masks. As compared to Israel that was the one being praised as the most vaccinated of countries.    Or go hide under a rock with a 24 pack.

If you under 20 years old, you have a higher chance of dieing from the Yearly FLU.

How Face Masks Work

When someone who has COVID-19 coughs, sneezes, or talks, they send tiny droplets with the coronavirus into the air. That's where a mask can help.

A face mask covers your mouth and nose. It can block the release of virus-filled droplets into the air when you cough or sneeze. This helps slow the spread of COVID-19.

Can face masks protect me from the coronavirus?

Multi-layer cloth masks help reduce transmission of virus from an infected person, They block up to 50-70% of fine droplets and particles, and can slow those particles that were not captured. Cloth mask also reduce the wearers' exposure to infectious droplets by filtering fine droplets and particles. Masks with high thread counts work best.

While a cloth face mask won't totally block the coronavirus, it’s an added layer of protection for you and the people around you. you should use it along with regular handwashing and social distancing measures like staying 6 feet away from others.

All sounds great, looks good written out, Until that sick person drops the mask to wipe their runny nose, toss the tissue nearby and as tossed releases the virus droplets so anyone walks thru is on clothing, on shoes, handle ANYTHING and not wash hands immediately and scratch your nose or itchy eyebrow you just spread it on your face.

Then are those that NEVER EVER cover their nose, just mouth, or leave it hang off their chin and CONSTANTLY adjust pushing it around wiping their hand on it and their clothes, six foot rule only applies til doesn't like in Wally World or Kohls aisles, or trying to pay for a load of gasoline at that station the card readers are all down.

And if vaccinated may Not EVER cough, just runny nose, sneeze once in awhile, Low to NO fever but still infected and Still carrying.  That from MY Doctor while we reviewed my last MRI last week on Right Shoulder.  Have a Partially Torn Long Head Bicep Tendon and a Posterior(To the Rear Side) Labral Tear of the Labrum.  Hurts some if overdo things just backed off some.  Her take on the increasing infections IS the Misinformation that the Vaccine is a Immunization Shot, it was not and can never be, HER words.

If your argument was about germs then the coughing and sneezing argument would hold water but stopping a virus, not a snowballs chance in hell. Now if your mask had a hepa filter it would protect you but nobody else. Like I said, these blue masks were designed to keep the surgical team from spitting in and on the patients as they are talking during surgery. They wear goggles and shields to stop airborne pathogens.
The biggest problem I see is they’ve cried WOLF so many times and so loud about the so-called super spreader events that if a very deadly variant does arise, there is a large group of people that won’t believe it, and sadly, for good reason.
On a lighter note, I did watch a gal sneeze into her elbow with a mask on and immediately turned to me and said, “well, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve done today.” We had a good laugh.
