The way Alex and Lenny used to talk about Thodoks made him sound a lot more interesting than he actually turned out to be. What a disappointment.

I guess flowery language used to get you a lot further around here.

The great prophet Robert Redfield said himself that the mask is the real vaccine. Cannot be FDA approved= does not work

If talking to infected person gave you a 50% chance of transmission, and 1 mask dropped that risk to 25%. Does that mask work?
lol "1 mask"
I'm referring to a mask on one person, but it doesn't matter. I didn't really expect verb to answer in good faith anyhow, and he did not.
Nobody I know wears them. It's over.
good god, just answer a question directly.
I would not care if I got covid. Therefore I would not wear a mask.
because you're vaccinated?

verb_to_trust wrote:%25 percent is not enough for FDA approval so applying that to masks, no, masks don't work.
:shock: Well, that's not how the FDA works, but thank you for answering the question.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I thought the clot shot needed to be 50 percent effective to get full FDA approval instead of the EmERgenCy AuThOrizAtiOn ?

Verb, how do you account for your obsession with COVID? Obviously it can't be fear driven anxiety...

Well my point stands. A %25 percent effective mask should not be approved given the societal harm it causes and no real effectiveness at preventing transmission

I would assume any appearance of verb paying attention to you is completely coincidental.

FDA regulates that an N95 mask stops 95% of particulate of a particular size. That may or may not have anything to do with transmission.

Guess we'll all get fit tested for N95, wear 4 new ones a day and shave our beards.

It's funny, the whole "verb is obsessed with covid why can't he just shut up" responses really started to pick up once team reality pulled out in front for good too.
