COVID-19 Mask Discussion (Trigger warning - mute thread is your friend)

Earlier in the week I found out that my doctor was one of those “Covid is a hoax” people…until he got sick himself, was on a ventilator for 10 days, and almost fucking died.

So much for that.

Especially when you riot, march, demonstrate, protest, destroy and burn down cities for goodness sakes!

I just saw it on Instagram so copied and pasted it to see what people thought :grinning: I didn’t originally post it

Its compulsory to wear full PPE at work so I do

In day to day life I choose not too but I respect social distancing and government guidelines

It’s only compulsory to wear masks here on public transport which I don’t use, thank goodness :sweat_smile:

Your racism is showing!

I’ve moved this into its own topic so as not to derail the Checking In thread. Tread carefully when commenting as it is a sensitive subject with lots of misinformation floating around.

See Covid-19 aka the Coronavirus for a relevant announcement.

@Englishd I don’t think it racism complaining about property getting destroyed.
White riots make just as much mess as blacks

And this is an excellent time to remind forum members that down at the bottom of every thread it says Tracking…you can change that to Mute and you won’t see the thread anymore.

This stresses me out!! Our mayor said it is mandatory so I do it.
I spent the morning reading crap from my neighborhood complaining about masks and should we wear them? Or not wear them?
This virus is new and we are all learning, including doctors. If there is a chance a mask can help then I wear it.
Nobody knows for sure what to do right now. I’m so sick of people complaining.
Sorry I guess this hit a nerve for me!! I came on here to get the covid and the masks out of my mind .
I come here to read positive recovery
Sorry have a nice day

Oh ,cool. Let’s bring the mask debate into a sober platform, since we don’t already see everyone arguing about it everywhere else.

Last damn thing I want to read here right now. I live in Las Vegas and we have casinos opening and so much going on right now, people fighting about masks. Some guy told me that we are all going to get covid🥶. I literally just sat down to read recovery help and stories to get my mind back on sobriety. Yes I will move on from this post. I hope it doesnt trigger anyone

yeah, not sure what this has to do with sobriety other then trigger people into arguing. We might as well also start arguing about who we are voting for

I’m so glad I live in New Jersey (at least now) where it is has been mandatory since April throughout the entire state to wear a mask no if ands or butts so no one has to have this argument. We might have been in the middle of the pandemic before but we are doing something right now and I think masks is a huge part of that.

It’s free-form. You can only have one or the other (in all their connotations) for the rest of your life. Pie or cake? :sweat_smile:

Yes I know!!! Sassy already told me , I am trying to do it. Stop picking on me. ANd why do you say for anyone “who cares” ?? You’re saying I dont care? I’ve been on here reading and liking for some time. Remove the anyone “who cares” that’s silly. We all care or why would be here.
