LovinLarge comments on Jul 3, 2020:

Interesting. Looks like there may be something here, although two sentences jumped out at me: 1. Prospective trials are needed to examine this impact; and 2. Limitations to our analysis include the retrospective, non-randomized, non-blinded study design. But perhaps this is a starting ...

AnneWimsey replies on Jul 3, 2020:

Look at the date of the study, Google it, it was Halted because deaths by cardiac arrest were attributed to these drugs & the death rate was Much Higher than if the patients had Not received the drugs!

AnneWimsey replies on Jul 3, 2020:

@WilliamFleming sorry, actually Halting a study is only done if the study (the drugs used) are killing the participants faster than if they were left alone. Not good news, in any way, and these drump-recommended drugs were debunked 2+ months ago! You need to listen to Fauci, not Faux/drump

A couple of people on here have suggested that masks are not necessary if you maintain "6' apart".

Trajan61 comments on Jul 2, 2020:

Here in western Oklahoma we don’t have much Covid yet so I don’t think mask are necessary. Besides I’m a lip reader and it impossible to lip read anyone with a mask so I have a lot of trouble communicating with people wearing masks.

AnneWimsey replies on Jul 2, 2020:

With that attitude (no need to be pro-active!) You are doomed! Do you not see what is happening to the rest of the country (Texas?) that had that same attitude???????

Lauren comments on Jul 1, 2020:

I know, it frustrates the hell out of me, too. Our city (Plano) just voted AGAIN not to enforce the wearing of masks, just to recommend people do it. So of course very few do.

AnneWimsey replies on Jul 1, 2020:

Thank goodness all CT businesses are required to enforcemask-wearing, it gives me license to shame those not, or wearing them sideways, or whatever they think is "cutesy". Store owners will tell them to leave!

This is one for the ladies.
